Mark Hamill’s TV Show Did a Jedi Level Trolling of Star Wars Fans

Mark Hamill has never been one to pass up a good opportunity to have a little fun affectionately trolling fans.

When the reveal finally came, it was clear that the picture was a punchline to a joke.

Still, the Jedi Joker couldn’t help but have a little self deprecating fun over the gag.
