Mark Hamill paid for the one scene in which he appeared in Star Wars Episode VII?
The price of legends is through the roof. If you want to make a movie that breaks the box office and recover one of the most mythical actors in the history of cinema for the cause, you are going to have to scratch your pocket. If not, ask Disney and what it cost the company to bring back Mark Hamill's unforgettable Luke Skywalker.
They knew they needed a good final blow to prepare the ground for "Star Wars VIII", so the figure of Luke was essential. When "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" began to be planned, the mouse company contacted a Mark Hamill who was not very keen on returning to the galactic saga. In fact, the condition that he put was that Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher also return. Hamill was sure that this would take the pressure off, since he was certain that Harrison Ford would not accept. What he did not count on was the 20 million that Disney would put in the hands of a Han alone who did not hesitate to return to the controls of the Millennium Falcon.
Thus, in order not to spoil the meeting, Mark Hamill decided to accept the role that he had launched to fame more than three decades earlier. His role in the new trilogy would be vital, but in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" he would only appear for 30 seconds. A couple of plans for which Disney has ended up paying him… Three million dollars! There is nothing...
We don't know what he will be paid in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, but what is clear is that Mark Hamill is more than happy to have decided to return to "Star Wars".
