Warning: Major spoilers ahead for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Book of Boba Fett episode 6. Turn back now if you haven't seen the latest episode on Disney Plus!

The Book of Boba Fett episode 6 brought with it some major cameos, from 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Ahsoka Tano to Cad Bane, and even Baby Yoda, AKA Grogu. One 🃏character in particular, though, returned with the help of some CGI de-aging wi🌠zardry. That's right, Luke Skywalker is back.

While the episode's version of Luke looked like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Return of the Jedi-era Mark Hamill had 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:strolled right out🌊 of a time machine, there was in fact someone else standing in for the character. Much like in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Mandalorian season 2 finale, bringing Luke to the screen is a joint effort this time round, ⛄too.

In the 🙈credits, Hamill's name is displayed over some concept art of Luke and Grogu – and later, Graham Hamilton is listed as Performance Artist – Jedi, while Scott Lang is Stunt Double – Jedi. It's unclear at the moment how exactly the whole process worked, but if it's anything like The M🌌andalorian, the actors would have performed their scenes, then a technological process involving de-aging and Deepfake would produce what we eventually see on screen, complete with a wholly digital voice.

Previously, the stand-in for Luke was Max Lloyd-Jones – while it seems he no longer plays Skywalker, he did have a cameo in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Book of Boba Fett episode 5 as a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:New Republic X-Wing pilot.  

There's a clear improvement in Luke's appearance from The Mandalorian to The Book of Boba Fett, too, which could be down to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Lucasfilm hiring Shamook, th♐e deep fake YouTuber who created his own version of t𒁏he de-aged Jedi.

Depending on how 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Baby Yoda's big choice goes, we could be seeing Luke deliver the Child back to Din Djarin in The Book of Boba Fett episode 7, but whether the Jedi shows up again in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Mandalorian season 3 remains to be seen.
