A Quote by Matt Duffer

The first thing our Chapman screenwriting professors taught us was that all stories share one thing in common: there is a protagonist, and that protagonist has a goal that he or she has difficulty achieving. Does Luke Skywalker become Luke Skywalker if he doesn't get pulled into the Death Star, if his best friend isn't turned into carbonite?

I played Luke Skywalker. Every time we played, I was Luke Skywalker. Nobody else could be Luke Skywalker.

Ricky Martin

Yes, you know Luke Skywalker isn't going to die in issue #3. But that doesn't mean you've seen every Luke Skywalker story there is to tell.

Jason Aaron

I am so glad I found you and didn't kill you" - Mara Jade Skywalker to Luke Skywalker

Michael A. Stackpole

I saw 'Star Wars' for the first time when I was four years old. Sure, I thought Princess Leia was awesome. But the character I identified with most was Luke Skywalker. I left the theater certain the Force was strong with me, that I could train to be a Jedi and wield a lightsaber just like Luke.

Rae Carson

As a kid, growing up, as far as I was concerned, I was Luke Skywalker. Any sort of small victory or any adversity I would come up against at school, I was like, 'How would Luke Skywalker deal with this?' Everybody was the Empire; anybody who bullied me at school was the Empire.

Jacob Anderson

My favorite character in 'Star Wars' is Luke Skywalker, for sure.

Donovan Mitchell

Every Luke Skywalker needs his Darth Vader.

Paul Di Filippo

No, they can't. They can't be Luke Skywalker.

Jedi Masters do not crack up- they just get eccentric.- Luke Skywalker

Troy Denning

A little background: Annabeth used to adventure with Hermes's son Luke. Over time, Annabeth developed a crush on Luke. As Annabeth got older, Luke developed feelings for her, too. Luke turned evil. Hermes blamed Annabeth for not preventing Luke from turning evil. Annabeth blamed Hermes for being a rotten dad and giving Luke the capacity to become evil in the first place. Luke died in war. Hermes and Annabeth blamed each other. Confused? Welcome to my world.

Rick Riordan

I grew up having a sense of who Luke Skywalker is.

Rian Johnson

Even to this day, when I think about the fact that I'm in this 'Star Wars' world, that I'm a half-brother to Darth Vader and an uncle to Luke Skywalker, it's too hard to wrap my head around.

Joel Edgerton

Well, when I wasn't playing with a football I used to play with 'Star Wars' figures as a kid. Hanging out with Chewbacca and Luke Skywalker is how I passed the time when I wasn't kicking a ball around.
