Instagram artist ‘Morphy_me’ has recently photoshopped Civil War’s Sebastian Stan’s face onto an image of Luke Skywalker and the result is amazing. But first, let’s look at what the artist started out with:
And here’s what he ended up with:
The likeness is uncanny and the picture has become viral, blowing the minds of fans everywhere. It took me a good minute to realize that both images weren’t identical thanks to The Winter Soldier’s manly stubble. With the new Han Solo being cast in the form of Alden Ehrenreich, many are now salivating at the prospect of a potential Luke Skywalker prequel which bridges the gap between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. If that were to happen, then I’m sure everyone’s first choice will be Sebastian Stan after this nifty little mock up.
Even Hamill himself responded about the fan art on Twitter:
Looks like a Before & After Ad for Razor Blades #ShavingSkywalker #TakeItOffTakeItAllOff #StubbleNoMoreSebastianStan https://t.co/sR0J2fWdUS

With the Star Wars universe expanding in every direction, from spin offs, sequels to prequels, it wouldn’t be ludicrous to speculate that a Luke Skywalker movie will probably be adapted in the not too distant future, especially when considering we’re getting Han Solo prequel whether we like it or not.
Would you like to see a Luke Skywalker prequel post Return of the Jedi? Would Sebastian Stan be the perfect man to fill Mark Hamill’s skills? Or do you think somebody else could play the role better? Sound off down below!
