Actor Mark Hamill has enjoyed many roles over his career, but one role he didn’t play is that of a Darth Vader modeled after President Donald Trump.
Hamill, best known as Luke Skywalker from the Star Wars films, is always one to tease his fans. Some of his latest teases concerned him appearing at the recent San Diego Comic-Con in costume.

Some attendees noticed an “Orange Vader” roaming around, donning a wig reminiscent of Trump’s hair and a golf club that ejected out of a lightsaber. His polo shirt’s slogan — “Make the Death Star Great Again” — drove the outfit’s inspiration home.
Hamill did previously post on Instagram saying that he would be attending the convention in a disguise and he’s made cracks about the sitting president before, even implying Trump is a worse person than Vader, so it wasn’t an illogical conclusion to assume Hamill was behind the mask.

A fan took a picture with the Orange Vader, believing it to be Hamill to be the culprit. Initially, he played along with the notion that he was portraying the supervillain, even pinning the folowing tweet to his Twitter profile on Monday:
