Overview

• Hamill says he has effectively retired from voicing the Joker following Kevin Conroy’s death and has not, to his knowledge, been asked to reprise the role.
• He states he is not chasing Marvel or similar blockbuster parts, favoring voiceover and projects that don’t pull him away on long location shoots.
• He explains he returned as Luke Skywalker on The Mandalorian because Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni offered a portrayal that captured the missing “middle” and, in his view, truly understood Star Wars.
• He recalls having real reservations about returning for The Last Jedi, deciding to come back after seeing Harrison Ford sign on and not wanting to be the lone holdout of the original trio.
• He describes an unexpected late-career surge with “five features this year,” while reflecting on past typecasting—citing Miloš Forman’s refusal to cast him in Amadeus because audiences saw him as Luke.
