Mark Hamill hits Hollywood Blvd. disguised as a stormtrooper

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

As Mark Hamill himself states, "the last time anybody saw me in a stormtrooper outfit was when we rescued the princess on the Death Star." The STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS actor has donned the uniform once again in order to hit Hollywood Blvd to let people know that there are only two days left for a chance to win tickets to the premiere of STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS and meet the cast. This is all part of the Omaze/Force for Change campaign which will see your money go to some very worthy charities and you just might win some swell Star Wars swag as well.

Isn't he a little short for a stormtrooper? I'm sorry, I had to. Head on over to the Omaze/Force for Change site, and for just $10, you and three of your friends could be flown out to the premiere (either London or Los Angeles), get to walk the red carpet, meet the cast, attend the after-party, and pass out in a four-star hotel. Not a bad deal.
