With Star Wars: The Last Jedi have almost completed its entire cinema run, Mark Hamill has finally started speaking about the fate of Luke Skywalker.

As anyone who has watched the eighth instalment in the science fiction saga knows, Luke Skywalker ends up becoming one with the Force/evaporating into the sky.

Where does the hero disappear to? The actor has some ideas. “I refuse to believe that he’s gone,” Hamill told the BBC. “My theory is he just teleported to somewhere else and left his robe behind. He teleported to a nudist colony, that’s what I’m hoping.”

Should that be where Skywalker has ended up, chances are we won’t be seeing a Disney-produced spin-off based in the nudist colony.

Hamill also spoke about the approaching Oscars, where The Last Jedi is nominated for best original score.

“It’s nice but that’s not why you do it,” he said. “You do it for the passion and that’s why you should do it, not because you think it’s going to win lots of awards.”

Meanwhile, the Blu-ray of The Last Jedi reaches shelves soon and will include 14 deleted scenes.
