"I am so grateful to [creator George Lucas] for letting me be a part of that back in the day, the humble days when George called Star Wars ‘the most expensive low-budget movie ever made,'" said Hamill during an interview with ComicBook.

Mark Hamill cautioned that fans should not expect him to return as a world-weary Luke Skywalker in any forthcoming 'Star Wars' installments.

"We never expected it to become a permanent franchise and a part of pop culture like that. But my deal is, I had my time. I'm appreciative of that, but I really think they should focus on the future and all the new characters.
