😊 Oh man, this interview is everything! I'm loving how Mark Hamill is keeping it light and playful, even when talking about Darth Vader 🤣. And Jim Acosta's impression was spot on! 👏 The way he did that breathing sound is totally on point 😂. As for a Luke Skywalker spinoff series, I'm definitely down to see more of the character's growth and development over time 🎥. Hamill's got some great insight into what might happen next for Luke, and I'm super excited to see if this happens 💫. It would be awesome to explore his journey from farm boy to Jedi Knight in a new series 🤓. Mark Hamill is just the best when it comes to talking about Star Wars, always so enthusiastic and passionate about the franchise ❤️. Can't wait to see what's next for Luke Skywalker 🚀!
 
lol can't believe Jim Acosta's Darth Vader impression 😂👀 he totally nailed it! but seriously, Mark Hamill seems like he's having way too much fun with this interview 🤣. I'm actually kinda intrigued by the idea of a Luke Skywalker spinoff series tho, it would be cool to see more about his journey from farm boy to Jedi Knight 💫🚀
 
I think its gonna be super lame if there's a new Star Wars series focusing on Luke Skywalker 🤦‍♂️. I mean, we've seen so much of him already in the original trilogy and prequels... what's left to explore? The guy's got more backstory than most people have in their entire lives! Give it up for some other character's storytime, you know? And what's with Jim Acosta trying on Darth Vader's voice 🤣? Come on, dude, that was a solid impersonation 😂. Anyway, gotta say, if there's gonna be another Star Wars series, let's not make Luke the main guy... he's had his day in the sun 💫.
 
OMG, this interview is everything! 🤩 I love how Mark Hamill isn't afraid to roast Jim Acosta for trying to impersonate Darth Vader - it's so relatable! 😂 The way he playfully teases Acosta about his breathing sound had me giggling out loud. And can we talk about Luke Skywalker's growth and development as a character? A spinoff series could be super interesting... I'd love to see more of Luke's journey, especially after all the twists and turns in the latest movies 💫. Maybe we'll even get to see him face off against some of his old foes? 🤔
 
can't believe they're actually making another spinoff! luke skywalker is such an iconic character, but I feel like we've gotten enough of him already 🤔 i'm not sure what's next for mark hamill's character, maybe it's time to explore some other side stories or maybe even a new generation of heroes 🚀
 
I'm so down for another Luke Skywalker series! 🤩 It's been ages since we last got to see him on screen and I'm sure he's got some more amazing adventures up his sleeve 💫. Mark Hamill is always so funny and charming, it's great to see him still having a blast talking about his character 😂. I think what I love most about the new series ideas is how they can really explore Luke's growth as a Jedi and a person 🤝. I'm not sure if I want him to be a hero or a villain next time around though... 😉. Can't wait for more! 💥
 
🤣 I know how much fans love to see more of Luke's story and it'd be so cool to see him grow from that young farm boy into a Jedi Master 🌟. I'm kinda glad Jim Acosta gave it a shot as Darth Vader though, had me laughing 😂. The thing is, Hamill has been saying some pretty interesting stuff about the franchise in interviews lately... he's got some theories on how Luke might deal with his destiny and stuff
 
OMG, this is so exciting!!! I need a new Star Wars series ASAP! 🚀👽 Mark Hamill's thoughts on Luke Skywalker are giving me all the feels - it's like he's still channeling that iconic Jedi energy 💫. And can we talk about how hilarious Jim Acosta's Darth Vader impression was? 😂👺 I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what new adventures await Luke Skywalker! The universe is full of endless possibilities, and a spinoff series could be just the thing to keep us hooked 🤩.
 
I'm still waiting for that Luke Skywalker spinoff series to happen 🤞🚀. I think it would be awesome to see more of Mark Hamill's take on the character's growth as a Jedi. I've always been curious about what happened after the original trilogy... did Luke become a respected leader in the Rebel Alliance or something? 🤔👽
 
omg u guys i just watched this super fun interview w/ mark hamill and jim acosta lol so they're talking abt luke skywalker and then jim starts doing this epic darth vader impression and mark is literally DYING laughing 🤣👽 like "your breathing sound is SO on point, jim" i feel the same way lol what if there's a new star wars series about luke?? that would be so cool 🚀💫
 
I'm not buying it 😏. A whole spinoff series just because they want to explore Luke's growth? It feels like a rehash of what we already got in "The Force Awakens" 🤷‍♂️. I mean, don't get me wrong, Mark Hamill is awesome and all, but come on... let's not forget that the guy's been typecast as the hero for decades now 🙄. It'd be cool to see him play a more complex character for once 🔮. Maybe they could explore some of Luke's darker moments or his struggles with the Jedi Code? That would be kinda interesting 🤔. But, like, a whole new series just because... no thanks 😒.
 
LOL YEAH I'M SO DOWN FOR A LUKE SKYWALKER SPINOFF SERIES!! IT WOULD BE AMAZING TO SEE HIM GROW UP AS A JEDI KNT AND FIGHT AGAINST THE DARK SIDE! MARK HAMILL IS SUCH A PROFESSIONAL AND HIS OPINION MEANS A LOT!!! 🚀💫
 
I'm still reeling from that interview with Mark Hamill and Jim Acosta 🤯 I mean, who knew Jim could pull off Darth Vader's breathing sound so convincingly? 😂 It was hilarious to see Mark playfully roast him about it. But what really got me excited is the possibility of a new Luke Skywalker series. I think it would be amazing to see more of his journey from farm boy to Jedi Knight. Maybe we'll get to see some of the behind-the-scenes moments that happened between the films... that would be totally awesome 🤩. Can't wait to see what the future holds for the 'Star Wars' franchise! 👍
 
OMG I just got back from the most amazing vacation to Hawaii 🌴🏖️ and it was literally life-changing... I mean, have you ever tried surfing at sunrise? It's like the whole ocean is yours! 😎 And then I had the craziest dream last night where I was Luke Skywalker fighting a giant Ewok in the forest moon of Endor 🌳🏹. I swear it felt so real... anyway, what was I saying about Luke Skywalker spinoff? Oh yeah, I think it's a great idea! Can you imagine a series just focusing on his journey from being a young farm boy to becoming the hero we all know and love? It would be amazing to see more of his character development 🤔👍
 
Just watched this interview between @MarkHamill and Jim Acosta and I'm HYPED for a potential new Luke Skywalker series 🚀💫! I mean, who wouldn't want to see more of that iconic character's journey from farm boy to Jedi Knight? 🤩 Hamill seems totally on board with the idea and even had some fun poking fun at @JimAcosta's Darth Vader impression 😂👊 It's always exciting to see what's next for our favorite characters, and I'm all in on exploring Luke's growth and development over time. Fingers crossed we get a new series soon! 💥
 
OMG I'm literally dying over this Mark Hamill and Jim Acosta interview 🤣😂 I love how Mark pokes fun at Jim's Darth Vader impression 😆 it's so fitting that Jim can't even fake the iconic breathing sound 👀 but what's up with the potential Luke Skywalker spinoff? I'm hyped to see more of his character's journey 🚀👍
 
I think its gonna be awesome to see more of Luke Skywalker's story 🚀👍. Mark Hamill is literally so good at playing that guy, you can just imagine him as Luke all over again 😂. I kinda wish they'd make a series where we get to see more of his journey from farm boy to Jedi Knight... it's like, we barely scratch the surface on that in the movies 🤯. And omg, Jim Acosta's Darth Vader impression had me dying 🤣. The way Mark Hamill teases him about it is just perfect 😂. I'm so stoked to see what they come up with next for Luke and the Star Wars universe 💫.
 
I'm loving this idea of a Luke Skywalker spinoff series 🤩! I mean, we've seen so much of Anakin's journey and Han's adventures, but what about our boy Luke? He's got one of the most iconic characters in pop culture history, and I think it would be amazing to explore his growth from that young farm boy to a full-fledged Jedi Knight 🤺♂️. And can you imagine having Mark Hamill himself play along with Jim Acosta's Darth Vader impressions? 😂 It's moments like those that make me want to watch the Star Wars franchise again and again... I mean, I've seen all of them so many times, but there's just something about this universe that never gets old 🚀.
