"Star Wars Legend Reacts to Jim Acosta's Darth Vader Impression"

In a surprising turn of events, legendary 'Star Wars' actor Mark Hamill sat down with CNN's Jim Acosta to discuss his thoughts on a potential spinoff series centered around his iconic character Luke Skywalker. The conversation took an amusing turn when Jim Acosta attempted to impersonate the infamous villain Darth Vader.

During their discussion, Hamill couldn't help but burst into laughter after hearing Acosta's impressive – albeit imperfect – impression of the Sith Lord. "That was... quite something," Hamill chuckled, shaking his head in amusement. The 'Star Wars' legend even poked fun at himself, saying that he might need to brush up on his own voice acting skills.

Acosta, who had been practicing his Darth Vader impression beforehand, took Hamill's reaction in stride. He claimed that the key to pulling off a convincing Vader impression is "all about the breathing sound." When asked if he'd be interested in reprising his role as Luke Skywalker for another spinoff series, Hamill expressed enthusiasm and even joked that he might have to find a new job – something that doesn't require him to make awkward public appearances with Acosta.

The lighthearted conversation between the two entertainment journalists serves as a fun reminder of the enduring appeal of 'Star Wars' and its beloved characters.
 
lol I mean, can you believe it's been 40+ years since the first Star Wars film dropped? 🚀 It's crazy to think about how much the franchise has grown and evolved over time. Anyway, just a fun fact: did you know that Mark Hamill has voiced Luke Skywalker in over 500 episodes of animated series and films? 📺 That's a lot of breathing sounds for a breathing sound! 😂 The Star Wars universe is also home to a whopping 20+ billion fans worldwide, making it one of the most popular franchises in the world. 💥 I'm not surprised Jim Acosta nailed the Darth Vader impression - after all, who wouldn't want to be intimidating and cool like the Dark Lord? 👊 Mark Hamill's career has spanned over 50 years, with a net worth estimated at over $70 million. Not bad for a guy who once got paid in Star Wars merch 🛍️.
