Fans love Mark Hamill. Fans love “Star Wars.” And fans really love Mark Hamill talking about “Star Wars.”

When Hamill first stepped into the role of Luke Skywalker in “A New Hope” in 1977, he had no idea that it was a role that he would eventually become best known for. Although his role in the films is (likely) over, he has made de-aged appearances as Luke Skywalker in the Disney+ live-action series “The Book of Boba Fett” and “The Mandalorian.”

Although it’s hard to say what the future holds for Hamill’s adventures in a galaxy far, far away, Hamill has been entertaining his followers with a look back at the past and today was no exception.

Mark Hamill Plays A Guessing Game With Fans To Promote Upcoming Horror Series!

Back in February, Hamill played a game with his fans to help them try to guess the name of his upcoming horror series.

As The Blast previously reported, the veteran voice actor will be stepping behind the camera once again in an upcoming Netflix project created by Mike Flanagan, who is the mastermind behind Netflix horror classics such as “The Haunting of Hill House,” “The Haunting of Bly Manor” and the recent “Midnight Mass.”

Many fans were quickly able to piece together that the name of Mark Hamill's new show is "The Fall of the House of Usher." It wasn't all that hard to piece together, especially considering that Mike Flanagan has been teasing updates about it on Twitter for quite a while!

According to TV Line, the fifth Flanagan and Macy collaboration to hit Netflix will be called “The Fall of the House of Usher.” Although fans may be familiar with the short story the horror legend published in the 1800s, Netflix described the show as a “modern remix” of several Edgar Allan Poe works.

It is possible that the remix will include several of Poe’s best works, such as “The Tell-Tale Heart,” “The Cask of Amontillado,” and poems “The Raven” and “Annabel Lee.” Netflix further described the story as “an epic tale of greed, horror, and tragedy.”

Hamill will be joined by actress Carla Gugino, who has appeared in many of Flanagan’s other Netflix projects.
