'Star Wars' is more fairy tale than true science fiction.

George [Lucas] wanted to know whether we'd be interested. He did say that if we didn't want to do it, they wouldn't cast another actor in our parts - they would write us out.

In high school, I had to hide my comic book side, my nerd side from the civilian world so they wouldn't categorize me. They would try to marginalize me for what I like. I tried to give it up, believe me. I tried to kick the habit. But there's too much I liked about it to give it up completely.

People think being remembered most for one character is a negative thing, but I don't. I never expected to be remembered for anything!

You know how there are some stars out there who know how to market themselves? I don't have that.

I'm so much like Luke Skywalker I guess I always will be.

I live in a sort of insular world. It's mostly my family, my house, staying home and working.
