At Comic-Con last week, Moviefone was lucky enough to get a chance to chat with Mark Hamill, seen in the upcoming film 'Sushi Girl.' Hamill, who (as if you didn't know) starred as Luke Skywalker in 'Star Wars,' told me that, though he doesn't really walk the floor of the con now, he's been a fan for years and has been going to these things since before his iconic role.
We talked all about the film, the possibility of doing it as a play (Hamill has an extensive theater history), his voice work as the Joker, video games and his most recent venture, joining Twitter.
Moviefone: So tell me a little bit about the movie. Because I saw the trailer, it looks so cool!
Mark Hamill: It's so hyper reality. I mean uh, these very desperate men all in one room, I mean, it probably has its roots in things like '12 Angry Men,' I mean, uh, I thought there was a real theatricality about the piece. I loved the diversity of the characters. It's clearly not for everyone. In fact, when I first read it I said oh, gosh, I can't do this, it's just ultra-violent and really kind of vile in a way. But that's the exciting part. If you can get pushed out of your comfort zone, you know, I thought well, if they think I can do this I should really give it a shot. You know, I do love character parts, that's one of the reasons I love Broadway so much. You know, I was able to play the 'Elephant Man' and 'Amadeus' and the sleazy producer in 'Room Service.' There was a great variety of character parts to play. Continue Reading
