Mark Hamill Is in Talks For Star Wars VII

According to ET Online,  Mark Hamill would be willing to reprise his role as Luke Skywalker. There are no signed contracts yet but he will be meeting with both Michael Arndt, who is the writer, and Kathleen Kennedy, who is going to run Lucasfilm for Disney.  Hamill hinted that his return would be contingent on the return of the other cast members.

As for his thoughts about the next trilogy’s tone, “I said to George that I wanted to go back to the way it was, in the sense that ours was much more carefree and lighthearted and humorous – in my opinion, anyway. And another thing I’d want to make sure of is are we going to have the whole gang back? Is Carrie and Harrison and Billy Dee and Tony Daniels, everybody that’s around from the original [returning]? I want to make sure that everybody’s on board here, rather than just one. I guess I’ll have to tune into your show to figure out who’s on board.”  (ET Online)

For all the whining of Luke in Star Wars (A New Hope), he was and still is my favorite character in the original trilogy.   I would love to see him reprise this role for the new trilogy. I am extremely hopeful they will bring in the character of Mara Jade and his relationship with her.

Luke, use the force and come to the new Trilogy.
