We had a few appearances of younger Luke in Mandalorian and Book of Boba Fett. But going forward, if they want to continue to write stories with a younger Luke (younger than he was in the sequels), what would be the best route to go?

1. CGI (honestly, it has gotten good, but I don't know about an entire show with a CGI Luke)
2. Recast (I've heard a lot of talk about Sebastian Stan as a younger Luke)
3. Just avoid using the character outside of short appearances, and just use CGI for those?
4. Maybe do an animated or CGI series with a younger Luke? Then casting wouldn't be an issue.


Personally, although the CGI is good, I wouldn't want a full CGI Luke for an entire show. Recasting might be okay (it was ok with Han Solo I guess), but I wouldn't mind if they just did a good animated show that takes place between Episode 6 and 7.

We know how his story ends. So either force ghost while Hamill is still alive to move the universe past the Skywalkers
or let it end.

Nothing about the failed Jedi school or the rise of the First Order is what people want.

Most fantasy and sci fi is CGI anyway and I've been impressed with how it looks in Mando and Boba. Disney got enough money

avoid using the character

disney should get off the OG characters.

It's a galaxy for fukk's sake, everything doesn't need to revolve around the skywalkers

How about getting off the whole franchise and doing something different

If they're gonna insist on using the character, then it's time to recast.

They should:

*Introduce a different Jedi family.

AND/OR

*Introduce a new male Skywalker family member to be the new lead Jedi Skywalker.

They shouldn't use him at all, already butchered his character before they killed him off in that movie.
