How I Met My Mother: Luke Skywalker, Padmé Amidala Finally Reunited After 45 Years, 10 Star Wars Movies

Share

Star Wars fans are probably saying, “Luke I am your mother.”

Actor Mark Hamill, aka Luke Skywalker, finally met his fictional mother at the Golden Globes.

Hamill posted a picture of himself with Natalie Portman, who played Padmé Amidala, Luke’s mother, in the second round of “Star Wars” movies. Weird that their paths never crossed before. Wasn’t Hamill invited to the premieres of “Attacks of the Clones.” “Phantom Menace,” or “Revenge of the Sith”?

Luke’s dad, as everyone in the world knows, was Darth Vader, formerly Anakin Skywalker, played with stolid determination by Hayden Christensen. Now they can all go on Henry Louis Gates’s “Finding Your Roots” together!
