Mark Hamill dropped aStar Warsbombshell recently by allow in that , after 40 years , was eager to leave Luke Skywalker behind . He thought he had done that back when Return of the Jedi set the box office alight back in 1983 but agreed to recapitulate his character one final time when Disney released The Force Awakens in December 2015 .
After Hamill express his compliments to pursue new challenge forth from Star Wars , we take a look at 10 persona who should bow out after the Rise of Skywalker gain screens in December . And , no , they ’re not all extremity of the original trilogy …
Luke Skywalker
Hamill should get his compliments for two reasonableness . One , he ’s eager to leave the franchise and continue his acting vocation elsewhere - meaning the Disney bigwigs should concede him his wish in unspoiled faith . But , secondly , it seem Luke now has only one final outing in him from a narration perspective .
certain , the the likes of of Obi - Wan Kenobi and Yoda come along in more than one Star Wars film despite fail . But with Star Wars 9 aiming to end the Skywalker saga , then it makes sensory faculty that Luke does n’t feature in any more blockbusters going forrader . He ’s dead - yet can still assist protagonist Rey as she aims to complete her Jedi education - and he ’s likely to leave the Jakku scavenger well alone once ( if and most likely when ) she contend to tumble the First Order and play balance to the power .
Yoda
Fans are really hoping that Yoda makes another Star Wars cameo . The little unripe Jedi , voice by Frank Oz , made a momentary appearance in Rian Johnson ’s divisive the Last Jedi . But while some people had issue with everything about that movie , from Johnson ’s decision to make Luke Skywalker a grumpy sure-enough hermit to his editing oversight in THAT throne room scene , most agreed that Yoda ’s coming back was a shining light .
The former Jedi council member returned to give Luke some advice and , with Skywalker now joining him in force ghost form , it would be capital to see him helping Rey with her training . But again , once the First Order is defeat , that should be it . There is n’t even much background in a spin - off motion-picture show with Yoda spend the years in between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope consist low .
Sheev Palpatine
What a card to toy . Just when it look as if Star Wars was suffer from fatigue , what with the Last Jedi and Solo run out to be the corner office hits they were expected to be , Disney jump a major surprise by annunciate the comeback of Sheev Palpatine , former master to Darth Vader , ruler of the Galactic Empire and big villain to the entire series so far .
Palpatine will be demand in some capacity - some believe it may be gist transfer while others have suggested he somehow managed to survive his decline at the end of Return of the Jedi . But get ’s face up it , he ’s probably come back to croak all over again . And , when he ’s inescapably shoot down for a 2d time , that should be the ending of the character .
Leia Organa
With Carrie Fisher tragically pass by back in December 2016 , it means there should be no more Leia Organa going forrader . Fisher will posthumously be reprising her role in The Rise of Skywalker via previously unseen footage from The Force Awakens but , disregardless of what ending her character is given , that should be the goal .
Fisher ’s family have already ruled out exercise of CGI on her and , just like Luke , it ’s the end of the Skywalker saga . While not one by name , she ’s certainly receive the blood and it makes mother wit for there to be no more Leia after the last film of the saga release at the end of the year .
Rose Tico
That ’s faulty , but the backlash surrounding her character mean we can expect Rose to no longer sport after the wage increase of Skywalker . Tran can be forgive for walking away from the role herself - why trouble oneself when you get the grief ? Even if she were to settle down romantically with Finn , there would be no appetence to see how the duo ’s life together play out .
Lando
Why why , what have we here . While the majority of Star Wars fans knew Billy Dee Williams would be reprising his role as Lando Calrissian for the final chapter of the saga , the clipping of him cause a blast in the Millenium Falcon with Chewbacca by his side prompted one of the bounteous reasons for cheer when the Rise of Skywalker trailer released in April .
With Lando having failed to appear in either The Force Awakens or The Last Jedi , many did not expect to ever see the witching , charismatic Williams back on screen again . However , we imagine we know where this is going . The Old Guard have been killed off ever since Disney took the reins - it was Han Solo in 2015 and Luke Skywalker two years later - and we have a hunch that Lando might bite the detritus too . dedicate how the serial has pull through in his absence , it would make sensory faculty for William ’s role to be his Star Wars last .
C3PO
Anthony Daniels ’ C3PO may be one of the most pestering individuals to ACTUAL Star Wars characters such as Han Solo , Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa but he ’s have intercourse among the fans . After all - Solo aside - he an R2D2 are the only two people to look in every undivided movie of the serial , from the original to the prequels to the sequels .
His character has diminished , though , and there is a sense that he ’s no longer as essential as he once was . Star Wars has other droids in it now and C3PO has spent much of the continuation movies just stand around , doing very little of note . Could he perhaps meet a sticky end in the wage increase of Skywalker ? Perhaps . If this is the end , killing off the Galaxy ’s most - loveably irritating droid may be a track Disney choose to take . Because , once peace is needs restored to the galaxy , he ’ll believably just expend his time stand up around some more …
R2D2
When there ’s C3PO , there ’s R2D2 . The ying to the protocol droid ’s yang , the methamphetamine to his cheese , the ruby-red lightsaber to his blue . Everybody ’s favorite trivial droid is , though , no longer key to the Star Wars saga . And it makes little sense for him continuing to make appearances in the young planned trilogies further down the line .
R2D2 spent the majority of the Force Awakens silent and unmoving having opt to give up following Kylo Ren ’s attack on Luke Skywalker ’s Jedi academy . In the sequel , he interacts with his older friend for just a few brief minute but , once again , is criminally underused . With former master Luke and Anakin Skywalker now stagnant , R2D2 may as well call it a day and chill out with a cocktail on a sunny major planet somewhere .
Rey
Daisy Ridley has one - upped Mark Hamill by revealing she DEFINITELY wo n’t be in the new Star Wars trilogy . She toldBuzzfeed : “ I mean I can say I ’m not in the next trilogy . No . I think , cause Rian always say … if it ’s the Rian [ Johnson } one or it ’s the guys that did Game of Thrones , I ’m not certain . Whichever one it was , they always say it was going to be a freestanding story . So I ’m not . No . ”
That ’s probably for the good . If Rey survives the hike of Skywalker - and given how insanely knock-down she is , that ’s a genuine possibility - then it ’s sound Disney leave her well alone . Fans have responded negatively to the young versions of original protagonists Luke , Han and Leia and , some point down the wrinkle , Ridley should think about those respective rebound before perchance making a recurrence .
Chewbacca
Oh Disney , what have you done to miserable Chewbacca ? hold up are the day where he was a fundamental patten of the Star Wars machine , a vital character on the screen and a fundamental merchandise pull off of it . We were grateful to see him involve in several gamey - profile natural process scene with Han Solo in The Force Awakens but , ever since being repel by Leia after his old friend ’s demise , we ’ve barely seen him .
Chewbacca had just one single Old World chat with Luke in The Last Jedi . The only other matter he did of musical note was drop his prison term battling to keep Porgs under control and in his stomach . Chewie without Han is like a world where C3PO and R2D2 are n’t together . Rey would n’t want him around forever , Luke is gone and Leia may very well be break by the series ’ stop too . It ’s time for the dawn of the Wookie to end .
