Mark Hamill Ponders Who ‘The Last Jedi’ Could Be

Hamill was at Sundance to promote his new movie Brigsby Bear (which our own Ethan Anderton saw and loved), but since the fest coincided with the reveal of the Star Wars movie title, every interview eventually finds him returning to the familiar waters of George Lucas’ science fiction universe. The best of these interviews I’ve seen so far is over at Uproxx and it concludes with Hamill discussing who “the last Jedi” could be:

We’ve been discussing the meaning of the film’s title since it was first unveiled on Monday and thanks to a few leaked international translations, I’ve become increasingly convinced that the title is singular and refers solely to Luke Skywalker (at first…let’s see if he’s still breathing when the credits roll). And if the last Jedi is actually Rey, Daisy Ridley isn’t talking.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi (it still feels weird to actually write that!) is set to open on December 15, 2017.
