Enjoy Watching Mark Hamill React to His Original 1976 STAR WARS Audition
Thanks to Omaze, we can watch Mark Hamill hilariously react to his original 1976 Star Wars audition. He also shares some fun and interesting stories involving Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, and George Lucas.
The video was released to promote the opportunity for fans to join Hamill for dinner and also attend the premiere of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. If you want to enter for your chance to win, click here.
As you might imagine, Hamill can’t help but be embarrassed by the performance he gives during the audition. I especially enjoyed the part where Hamill recalls a moment when he asked George Lucas if Star Wars was a parody of Flash Gordon. He says the director’s response was, “Well, let’s just shoot it and we’ll talk about it later.” Lucas basically just wanted to shoot it and never talk about that question.
Enjoy the video!
