Mark Hamill zog sich fast von der Schauspielerei vor „The Long Walk“ zurück: „Ich sagte zu meinem Agenten:“ Ich bin nicht mehr motiviert „“

> “I thought this stage in my career, I’d be spending more time with a metal detector, wandering around the beach, playing with the dogs in the backyard,” Hamill said. “I said to my agent, ‘You know what? I’m not motivated anymore. I think I’m gonna just sort of retire and just do voice over.’ And the only people that rejected were my agent and my wife, because, you know, it’s good to have me out of the house.”

> He credited filmmaker Mike Flanagan for reviving his career by casting him in his Netflix series “The Fall of the House of Usher.” “That would have been a routine character for voice over, but to play an amoral, sociopathic lawyer, just pure evil — never on camera,” he said. Flanagan then cast Hamill as an alcoholic accountant and grandfather to the title character.

> “What a turnaround!” he said. “I didn’t expect to be this busy.”

The timing is crazy because weeks ago, I watched Alien: Romulus for the first time, which starred David Jonsson, who is in The Long Walk. The week after that, I watched Constantine, which was directed by Francis Lawrence, the director of The Long Walk. And I think I’ll be watching Life of Chuck next week, which Mark Hamill is in. All these names involved makes me interested in The Long Walk.

He was amazing in The Fall of the House of Usher. Completely unrecognisable
