Star Wars legend Mark Hamill says the audience can decide the Jedi Knight’s sexuality for themselves.
Mark Hamill claims Luke Skywalker could be bisexual – saying that the character’s sexuality is up to the fans.
The Star Wars actor made the statement after he was asked on Twitter if the iconic hero was bisexual.
Hamill – who recently reprised the iconic role in The Force Awakens – responded directly to the fan with a poignant message.
“His sexuality is never directly addressed in the films,” he wrote.
“Luke is whatever the audience want him to be, so you can decide for yourself.”
Other fans of the sci-fi franchise were quick to support Hamill’s theory, with Nerdist claiming Skywalker was the likeliest character to be gay or bisexual.
“Luke Skywalker has shown almost zero sexual interest in anyone in any of the films – with the exception of a woman who turned out to be his sister,” the website noted.
“And even then, that interest seemed considerably mild.”
