You didn’t think we’d go into the Thanksgiving holiday without at least one more story onStar Wars: The Force Awakens, did you? Thankfully, we do have one moreStar Wars: The Force Awakenstidbit, which hints that we may be seeing more of the iconicMark Hamillvery soon. Earlier today,Omazeposted a new video with directorJ.J. Abrams, on behalf of their successful Force For Change campaign, which raised over $7 million for UNICEF. The end of this video teases thatMark Hamillmay appear in a new video arriving sometime next week.
If you’ve been followingStar Wars: The Force Awakensover the past few years, you have noticed a distinct lack ofMark Hamill’s beloved characterLuke Skywalkerin any of the footage and photos released thus far.J.J. Abramshimself has teased that he has been purposefully holding back this Jedi warrior from the fans, which has only added fuel to the several rumors swirling about him. Naturally, none of these details have been confirmed yet, but they are still rather intriguing, nonetheless.
Some rumors claim that he has gone into exile followingStar Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi, with others claiming that his original lightsaber, which was found in the desert, sends new heroes Rey and Finn on their heroic journey. ProducerKathleen Kennedydid offer a tantalizing tidbit earlier this month, revealing thatStar Wars: The Force Awakens,Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the JediandStar Wars: Episode IXall revolve around Skywalker’s family. Some fans are convinced that we won’t see Luke Skywalker untilStar Wars: The Force Awakenshits theaters on December 18, but we’ll have to wait and see.
This video reveals that two lucky fans could win a trip to theStar Wars: The Force Awakenspremiere in either Los Angeles or London, by contributing at least $10 to theOmazecampaign. We also see numerous cast members such asDaisy Ridley,Carrie Fisher,Gwendoline Christie,Adam Driver,Domhnall Gleeson,Oscar Isaac,Lupita Nyong’oand many more, who reveal the charities they are supporting through this endeavor. The very end of the video showsJ.J. Abramssaying, “But where’sMark Hamill?” as the video ends with a message saying “To be continued next week.”
Could next week’s Omaze video give us our first ever look at Luke Skywalker? It’s possible, but unlikely, since none of the cast members featured in this video are seen in costume. Still, the cryptic nature of this video may mean there is some sort of surprise in store for fans dying to anything fromStar Wars: The Force Awakens. Take a look at the latest Omaze video below, and let us know if you think we could get our first glimpse at Luke Skywalker next week. you’re able to also visit theOmazepage for more details on the contest, and to make your donation.
