For 'Star Wars' fans who hoped that 'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier Star' Sebastian Star would join the franchise, it appears that just might be a possibility. The 39-year-old actor recently expressed interest in being part of the universe. Stan in 'Star Wars' has always been a point of discussion among fans. He was compared to Mark Hamill who played Luke Skywalker in the movies and now a de-aged version of the character appears in 'The Mandalorian' and 'The Book of Boba Fett'.

Per a New York Post report, Stan has referred to Hamill as his "father" and didn't rule out the possibility of playing a character in the glorious franchise. “Look, it’s really kind," Stan told Esquire. “Never say never. Mark Hamill is my father, you know, and he knows that he laughed. "I call him every Christmas to tell him, ‘Just want you to know I’m around.’ It’s really terrifying."

Appearing on 'Good Morning America' last year March, Stan revealed that he would play Luke if Hamill contacted him. “Well, if Mark Hamill calls me personally to tell me that he feels inclined to share this role with me, then I’ll believe it,” Stan said at the time. “Until then, I won’t believe it." Previously, Hamill, 70, had shared a headshot of Stan next to his photo for the '93 flick, 'Time Runner'. At present, Stan is making headlines and heads turn for playing Pamela Anderson's ex-husband Tommy Lee in 'Pam & Tommy' the Hulu miniseries.

While 'Star Wars' felt that there wouldn't be another Luke Skywalker cameo following his appearance in the finale of 'The Mandalorian' Season 2, 'The Book of Boba Fett' Episode 6 ensured there was more of the character. The episode saw him make an appearance again along with Grogu, better known as Baby Yoda and Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson). The finale of the Boba Fett spin-off is slated to air on February 9 on Disney+.
