Tweets in favour of Sebastian Stan
I’d be down for seeing Sebastian Stan play a young Luke Skywalker. Would love to see a conversation between him and Ahsoka about Anakin. A great poster by @ryansmallman#StarWars #TheMandalorian #SebastianStanforLuke #SebastianStan #LukeSkywalker pic.twitter.com/x4fNEcggG5

Rather than spending millions on an uncanny valley digital @HamillHimself for a possible Luke appearance in The Mandalorian, could they just cast Sebastian Stan instead?@Bosslogic #TheMandalorian #lukeskywalker #Grogu #SebastianStan pic.twitter.com/ba5ApKOuaS

Okay, I am so ready to see #SebastianStan appear as middle-aged #LukeSkywalker in the new #DisneyPlus #StarWars series, #TheMandalorian! And will we see a very young #KyloRen? pic.twitter.com/tzdKgCYzD6

About 'The Mandalorian' Season 2 finale (Warning: Spoilers Ahead)
In line with their reputation of evoking extreme reactions from the audience members, The Mandalorian makers dropped a surprise in the form of a young Luke Skywalker, who was a CGI version of Mark Hamill, in The Mandalorian Season 2 finale. In the finale in question, legendary robot assistant R2D2 was seen alongside Hamill's Skywalker. The final few scenes of The Mandalorian Season 2 finale effectively served as an origin story of Skywalker's long-term relationship with Yoda.
