Recent leaked Star Wars: The Last Jedi posters hinted at a shocking twist with Luke Skywalker as a possible villain, and now Mark Hamill himself has shared a new promo image of his character which also teases a change of alliance.
Hamill has posed in some very Sith-like robes for a photoshoot on the cover of Hungarian magazine Mozimania:

And the image has got fans worried that Luke will indeed turn to the dark side, expressing their concern on Twitter:

Luke’s closing line of the trailer also has fans questioning his allegiance: “It’s time for the Jedi to end.” While Hamill told ABC Nightline recently that when first reading Rian Johnson’s script, he complained to the writer and director, as he “disagree[d]” with his character’s new direction:
“When I read [episode] eight I told Rian, ‘I fundamentally disagree with virtually everything you’ve decided about my character’. It was as shocking to me to read what Rian had written as I’m sure it will be for the audience,” he said.
We’ll find out the facts when Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi arrives on December 15.
