Star Wars: The Last Jedi

During the goodbye scene in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Luke (Mark Hamill) is saying a poignant goodbye to his sister Leia (Carrie Fisher). Just before he turns to leave, Luke places a loving kiss on Leia’s forehead. According to Hamill, that kiss was a spur of the moment, genuine gesture.

While filming the scene and reflecting on the fact that this would be Luke’s final goodbye to his sister, the actor felt all the feels wrapped up in letting go of a character he had played from such a young age. No one could know that Carrie Fisher would pass away before the release of that film, making that particular scene one that Hamill can’t even bear to watch to this day.
