Mark Hamill has offered a breakdown of newly surfaced StarWars test read footage between him and Harrison Ford from a key New Hope scene.
Mark Hamill has responded to a video of unearthed test footage for Star Wars, featuring both himself and Harrison Ford in what would go on to be career-defining performances as Luke Skywalker and Han Solo. Hamill portrayed the farmboy-turned-Jedi in six out of the nine movies in the Skywalker Saga, as well as cameos in the recent Star Wars original series The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Hamill, well known for his active engagement with fans via social media, has been reminiscing about his casting experience for Star Wars thanks to a forgotten video of his test read with Ford. The video, originally shared on Twitter in 2019, features Hamill and Ford acting out an alternative version of the classic scene of the crew of the Millennium Falcon discovering the destruction of Alderaan.
Whereas in the final film, the scene features Han, Luke, Ben Kenobi and Chewbacca all discovering Alderaan's fate together, with Kenobi quickly deducing the Empire being responsible, the test version plays things out between Han and Luke alone. Both characterizations are instantly recognizable, however, with Han preferring to settle things up with his client and get away as fast as possible, whilst Luke is quick to push for them to seek out the Rebel Alliance.
What's also striking about the test read is how it seems to combine two separate scenes in the final cut of A New Hope: the Alderaan discovery itself, and Luke and Han arguing aboard the Death Star about rescuing Leia. Despite the variations between the draft and the final screenplay, however, Hamill and Ford have a palpable chemistry that more than explains both their castings.
