Mark Hamill is a true rebel both on- and off-screen. The Star Wars icon plays a Jedi who throws his weight behind the Rebellion, but the actor himself also likes to cause a bit of mischief. The charismatic actor is know for his witty jokes and joker-like behavior, and now Hamill is stirring up a bit of trouble for Star Wars fans again.

Shortly after sharing the first photo of Luke Skywalker ever taken, Hamill is now gifting fans with a picture Lucasfilm never wanted anyone to see. The actor retweeted a little-known black-and-white image of Luke which a fan account procured, and Hamill was more than happy to poke fun at his style.
The image itself is a campy one as it shows Luke in a whacky light. Hamill is shown in the character’s beige robes, but his leggings have been replaced with wide-leg pangs. The actor is shown with his feet spread and a hand reaching out as if he’s about to push out some sort of energy blast. And, of course, fans can see a carefully placed bandeau across Hamill’s chest to prevent any undue nipple-slips.
“One was wondering what was that white bandeau accross @HamillHimself ‘s chest? Costume design or #NippleProtector against the fabric,” the fan account tweeted, and Hamill was quick to verify the image.
“For years Lucasfilm wouldn’t release this pic-U can see the low-cut t-shirt under my tunic& I’m not wearing my leggings,” Hamill said.
So, who knows? Maybe fans will get another fun behind-the-scenes photo like this before the next Star Wars saga flick debut this December.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi, from writer/director Rian Johnson, is in post-production now for a December 15, 2017 release. The film follows-up and continues the story of the next generation of the saga as Rey, Poe, Finn, and Kylo Ren find their place in the galaxy and follow the legacy of Luke Skywalker, Leia, and Han Solo. Daisy Ridley returns to star as Rey, with other returning stars John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Adam Driver, Domhnall Gleeson, Gwendoline Christie, Peter Mayhew, Andy Serkis, Anthony Daniels, Lupita Nyong’o Mark Hamill, and Carrie Fisher as General Leia Organa.
