Mark Hamill Debunks the Reports that he had an Accident During the Filming on Skellig Michael Last Year.
For several days now, there’s a story circling the web, about Mark Hamill and how he nearly died during the filming of The Force Awakens on Skellig Michael last year. We intentionally didn’t post these reports, because it was an obvious try to get attention and mislead the readers while Hamill and the Episode VIII crew are back filming on the same location. Now the actor himself debunked the story…
Many people and even big movie sites were confused by the way the story was presented, and reported it wrong, as it happened just a few days ago.
I am not going to point to the source of this, but mainly the report was about Hamill climbing the steps to the monastery, located at the top of Skellig Michael, when he suddenly slipped and would have died, if it wasn’t for a guide who grabbed the actor just in time to save him.
Now Mark Hamill himself took to Twitter to reveal the real truth behind all this:
Fabricated stories usually contain a seed of truth. Didn’t so much as stub a toe on Skellig Michael. But thanks for your concern! #FalseNews

Luke’s too strong with the force to get hurt.
Exactly
the whole thing I think was a distraction while they’re on Skellig.
I knew the whole thing was BS – it stunk.
The story was to Forced! 😉
The Farce is with this rumor.
Not even a seed of truth.
Seed of truth…is that a reference to Star Trek…Khan etc…which is a reference to Into Darkness… one of JJ’s well known cover ups….which means it’s all true and they are trying to hide it !
Pfft…amateur. Actually, it means Jaku is Tattooine.
Mark Hamill is the man!
Now if only he could confirm whether the cameo stuff or not…. (Hopefully not)
Long live Mark Hamill!

That was a Jedi Master response. #luke skywalker
The Luke Skywalker-screen time people really crack me up. There’s a whole two other movies to go people!

But I thought they were making MY MOVIE, MINE! The way I WANTED IT!!!!!!
Not if they kill Han — if Han is dead, we will never see the original cast interact in any movie again if they don’t in TFA, which is how it looks with each passing day. Luke, Han, and Leia need to at least have a few scenes together in TFA. Next you’ll be telling me it’s wrong to expect to see stars in outer space in the movie. What a weak follow-up to Return of The Jedi if that’s the case.
I feel your pain, but hey we’re big boys right?
good old mark. i love the way he thinks
Hard to get hurt when you’re only in the film for ten seconds….f**k you, JJ.
