As if we weren’t already excited enough, J.J. Abrams has just further fueled the fired by saying that Mark Hamill’s performance in Star Wars: The Last Jedi is potentially Oscar-worthy.
NY Daily News caught up with J.J. Abrams at the event and even though he isn’t directing this time around, the subject of Star Wars: The Last Jedi came up.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi is written and directed by Rian Johnson and is set for release on December 15.
