Yahoo!: One year from now, Mark Hamill will return to movie theaters in the role that made him an icon. In the meantime, fans eagerly awaiting the debut of the elder Luke Skywalker in Star Wars: The Force Awakens can catch Hamill’s performance as another beloved big-screen wizened elder. The actor stars opposite Jim Parsons in Elf: Buddy’s Musical Christmas, NBC’s delightful stop-motion animated musical based on the 2003 Will Ferrell film and the Broadway show it inspired. (The special premieres Tuesday Dec. 16 at 8/7c). Hamill, who’s worked primarily as a voice actor since the mid-’90s, stars as Walter, the grouchy publishing executive who’s surprised to learn that his long-lost son was raised as a Christmas elf. Yahoo Movies spoke with Hamill about stepping into James Caan’s shoes for Elf, his Star Wars beard, and playing with the ball-droid on set.
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
