Actor Mark Hamill: pulled pints in Irish pub in between shooting for new Star Wars film
Actor Mark Hamill, best known for his role as rebel hero Luke Skywalker in the original Star Wars trilogy, was seen pulling pints in a pub in Country Kerry, Ireland.

The star, who is currently filming the new Star Wars film “The Force Awakens” on nearby island Skellig Michael, popped into local pub the Bridge Bar after a day of shooting, pulling pints for customers, taking pictures and signing autographs.

Local man Steve Lynott told the Irish Examiner: ​“[Hamill] was very generous with his time. Despite getting off the shoot late in the day, he stood for pictures and signed autographs for children and still had to get up early this morning for more filming.”

Fellow actor and Legend star Tom Hardy​ was reported this week to be building a pub in his back garden.
