The actor went on to reiterate that any fans looking for spoilers might as well abandon all hope, as he would rather taunt fans than risk revealing any information accidentally.
"I'm in that really calming lull after you make the movie and before it comes out where they don't want you to say anything," Hamill confessed. "And I'm good at that. Like I say on my Twitter account, people are constantly saying, 'When's the trailer dropping? What's the title?' They wouldn't tell me that. I play dumb, I say, 'They made another Star Wars movie?' No one tells me anything."
Star Wars: Episode IX lands in theaters on December 20th.
