Is Mark Hamill keeping a Force Awakens secret the size of ‘Luke, I am your father’?
Wow. In a recent interview with PC Gamer, Mark Hamill has revealed that he’s keeping a massive secret for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. A secret so big, it would seem, it’s as huge a deal as the ‘Luke, I am your father’ reveal from The Empire Strikes Back – something so massive, that he’s getting paid to keep quiet. Here’s what he said:
‘I have something coming out where there’s an amount of money that if it leaks, because of me, I don’t get that payment… I’m good about keeping secrets, I’m proud of the fact that I knew a year and a half before anybody else that he was actually dad Vader… Now it’s happening all over again. I’m not even authorised to tell you I’m in Episode VII, it’s all secret.’
If he’s not even technically allowed to say he’s in The Force Awakens, then this secret – whatever it is – must be profound. Let the speculation begin.
