When the very first Guardians of the Galaxy film had been released, Marvel fans perceived it as a tongue-in-cheek Star Wars.
And it now seems like these two may have a crossover as Luke Skywalker’s actor, Hamill is vying for a role in the franchise’s threequel.
A had tweeted, “@JamesGunn, could you do me a huge favour and find a role for @HamillHimself in Guardians 3? The awesomeness of it might end me, but I’m willing to risk it. Thanks.”
The director replied, I think @HamillHimself lives around the corner from me in Malibu so he can just come over and we can talk about it over a cup of coffee.”
Hamill responded, “I would be happy to do so, both as a good neighbor & an unemployed actor. All the best, mh” to which Gunn said, “Haha let’s do it.”
Hamill then responded saying, “DM me for my contact info if you’re serious. (& a good neighbor) xoxo, mh.”
Gunn has replied saying, “Yes I will.”
So, we may see Hamill in a cameo role like Sylvester Stallone had in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2. He played Stakar Ogord, a mentor of Yondu. Hamill may also play like David Hasselhoff, who Star-Lord believed was his father.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 will be released in 2020.
