Next year marks 45 years since the original Star Wars hit theaters, which means this year marks 45 years since the movie went into production. Some of the movie’s cast has been sharing throwback and memories from the first time they stepped into their iconic roles. Mark Hamill, who has been playing Luke Skywalker in the franchise on and off throughout its entire run, often shares fun stories about his time making the original trilogy. The actor’s latest Star Wars post sees him reminiscing about some wild weather problems that halted the original production.
