Luke Skywalker's journey across the original Star Wars trilogy was fascinating, as he went from Tatooine farmboy to Jedi Knight. However, there definitely seemed to be a slightly darker edge to Luke when we met him again in Return of the Jedi, something his black robes appeared to indicate.
In a new interview, actor Mark Hamill has revealed his hopes that Luke was going to follow in his father's footsteps in the 1983 movie, falling to the Dark Side like Anakin Skywalker before him.
Discussing the movie, which was originally titled Revenge of the Sith, he recalled complaining to George Lucas about the film's ending. "I said, 'It's so predictable and pat,' and he said, 'Mark, don't forget. These things were made for children.'"
"Because I was wearing all black, I thought I would go to the Dark Side in the last one," Hamill explained, "And, of course, you have to redeem yourself." He added, "Every actor wants to play their own evil twin."
That's not the way things played out for his character, and Luke eventually overcame Emperor Palpatine's attempts to turn him into a Sith.
The Last Jedi teased Luke's darker nature when he considered striking down his nephew Ben Solo, but by the time we saw him in The Rise of Skywalker, it was clear that he was a true Jedi Master.
