With Master Luke Skywalker returning in last weeks sixth episode of The Book of Boba Fett, the advancements in technology – while incredibly impresive already in The Mandalorian – were clear, as Mark Hamill returned to the role, looking as he did over thirty years ago when – had life been slightly different – he would have played Skywalker at this point in his life. This time around, the motion capture performance was portrayed by Graham Hamilton, replacing Max Lloyd-Jones who has already appeared in the show this season as the X-Wing pilot flying with Carson Teva.

Actor and voice artist Graham Hamilton took on the role of Luke’s motion capture character in The Book fo Boba Fett, along with some improved de-aging and deepfake technology that makes him look more real.

The actor has appeared in NCIS, The Orville, and provided additional voices in The Last of Us Part II. He also provided the voice of an Overseer in two Dishonored games, according to his IMDb listing.

In The Mandalorian, the body of Luke was played by Max Lloyd-Jones in the episode, according to The Direct. Lloyd-Jones, who was responsible for Blue Eyes in War of the Planet of the Apes, has also appeared in a number of TV and film projects, including the 2016 Adventures in Babysitting movie. Ironically, he is credited as playing Lieutenant Reed in The Book of Boba Fett Chapter 5.
