There are plenty of intriguing “what if” casting stories in Hollywood, where now-known actors auditioned for roles that they didn’t get, before the movie ended up being incredibly successful. There’s Jake Gyllenhaal auditioning for “Lord of the Rings,” Gwyneth Paltrow in “Jurassic Park” or Kurt Russell‘s auditioning to play Han Solo.

Mark Hamill has sent fans on a wild goose chase through the Star Wars film archives after revealing he had secretly voiced a number of characters in various movies.

The 41-year-old actor played the role of Poe Dameron in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens", "The Last Jedi", "Rise Of Skywalker".

As the second half of 2020 begins to solidify, and film fans are able to fully plan which blockbusters will be arriving later this year, it’s clear that “Dune” is still perhaps the most-anticipated release on the calendar. And even though Denis Villeneuve’s new film is still scheduled to arrive in December, it appears that work is far from done on the sci-fi epic.
