STAR WARS/IGN NEWS/11 APR 2019 7:34 AM PDT MARK HAMILL PITCHED A DIFFERENT ENDING FOR STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS TO JJ ABRAMS Share. "Hi Sis, I'm here to rescue you." BY ADAM BANKHURSTMark Hamill, Luke Skywalker himself, recently described a different ending to Star Wars: The Force Awakens that he pitched to director J.J Abrams that would have been a touching call-back to A New Hope. Talking to The Hollywood Reporter on the Awards Chatter Podcast for his role in History's Knightfall, their discussion eventually went to Star Wars. During their conversation, Hamill revealed a pitch he gave to Abrams that would have led to the reunion of Luke, Leia, and Han. You can still have me come in at the very end," Hamill explains. "But how about this? Leia's trying to contact me telepathically. She gets frustrated because there's no answer so she rushes to the new Death Star.that's three so far...and she almost gets there when she's stopped by two Stormtroopers. Just before she's abducted, one Stormtrooper turns to the other and blows him away, pulls off his helmet and says, "Hi sis, I'm here to rescue you." Hamill thought that would have "blown the roof of the joint" What's more, this scene would have led to the inevitable death of Han Solo with Luke and Leia there to be with him at the end. "It's more effective to have people that really have a history with Han Solo witness his death and be unable to stop it. His wife, the mother of his child, his best friend. Instead of two characters that have known him what...20 minutes?" During the same interview, Hamill also discussed how he believes that Star Wars fatigue is a real thing, and that even he has experienced it.

Abrams surely cares about Star Wars and respects Mark Ham- Oh...

Trey the Explainer @Trey_Explainer ⚫ 1/12/20 You know what I thought was a huge missed opportunity in Rise of Skywalker was the “final fight” put up by the galaxy against Palpatine. It would have been really neat to see random throwback characters from the series that Palpatine's actions impacted, ready to get revenge
