Sebastian Stan, the MCU star is aware that Star Wars fans think he has a striking resemblance of the young Mark Hamill who played Luke Skywalker. Rumors have been circling online as some are dream casting the MCU star to appear as the Jedi Knight character in a future project.

Although Stan does not hate the rumors, however, he
says there would a be huge catch – the iconic sci-fi actor, Mark Hamill, who
first brought the character to life would have to give Stan the blessing and
tell him it was actually happening.
During the press for his current project, The Falcon
and The Winter Soldier, Stan was asked about the casting rumors for a Star Wars
project.
If Mark Hamill called me, personally, to tell me he feels inclined to share this role with me, then I will believe it. Until then, I won’t believe it.

Previously, Hamill has commented about Stan, and it is
clear he is a fan of the Bucky Barnes/Winter soldier star.
Sorry to disappoint you but I refuse to say “Sebastian Stan-I AM YOUR FATHER!” (even though, in fact, I am) #SorryNotSorry #MySonSebastian.

Mark Hamill delighted fans last year when he reprised
his role of a de-aged Luke in the Disney+ series, The Mandalorian. Ever since,
the fans have been appealing for more young Luke Skywalker adventures, and
fortunately, Sebastian Stan has been the fan choice and favorite to take the helm
of the iconic Star Wars character.
