**Potential Spoilers for “Solo: A Star Wars Story”**
It appears that killing off Mark Hamill’s character from the “Star Wars” franchise isn’t enough to get Luke Skywalker to stop blabbing about the galaxy far, far away. He’s not even in “Solo: A Star Wars Story,” but somehow, Hamill has managed to spoil something from the film.
In an interview on the Cape Up Podcast (via Comicbook.com), Hamill talked all things “Star Wars,” but had this interesting nugget of information about the upcoming Han Solo film:
“[Anthony] Daniels was so happy, ‘cause he’s in every single ‘Star Wars’ movie. Every single one. All the prequels, he’s in ‘Rogue One,’ he’s in ‘Solo’… Whoops! I hope that’s not — erm… but anyway, he’s in every single ‘Star Wars’ movie. That’s not such a reveal — all ‘Star War’s fans expect him to be in every movie.”
Anthony Daniels, as any “Star Wars” fan will quickly know, plays the role of C-3PO in the ‘Star Wars’ franchise. And as Hamill is quick to point out, the character has appeared in every film, from the godforsaken prequels to the anthology film ‘Rogue One.’ Granted, his ‘Rogue One’ appearance was a glorified cameo and served only to get an applause break from the rabid fanbase.
With that in mind, the appearance of C-3PO, along with R2-D2, seems inevitable. Maybe they’ll turn into the Stan Lee of the “Star Wars” franchise. The droids will signal the point in the movie when you turn to your friend and annoyingly point out who that is, as if decades of films haven’t been informative enough. Ugh. But I digress.
It also shouldn’t be a surprise that Hamill is the one to break the news. The actor has apparently made it his new mission in life to ruin the “Star Wars” franchise by talking badly about the previous film “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” and now spoiling special appearances that have been closely guarded secrets. Let’s just say that if he hasn’t had his Lucasfilm clearance revoked yet, he’s bound to be losing his credentials soon enough.
Oh well, sorry to do this fans, but there’s one less surprise awaiting you on May 25 when ‘Solo’ hits theaters.
