Odds are, the story has completely changed, but who knows for sure.
Ah! Decades-old spoiler alert!
Mark Hamill may have spilled the beans about his iconic Star Wars character years ago while doing an interview with the late film critic Gene Siskel around the time Return of the Jedi was released.
In the unearthed interview, Hamill said George Lucas explained to him his layout for the prequels and also told Hamill to be ready, because he had plans for Skywalker many years down the road.

I watched Lucas being interviewed about a year after the original film was released and he stated...
"I have a vision of a nine film arc. Three, starting with Episode 4, 5 and 6. Then a three film prequel showing the early days of the Jedi. Then, the last three film trilogy following the further adventures of Luke Skywalker and his friends."
It always was going to be nine movies. Now, over the years, that layout got convoluted as the "search for more money" kicked in.
“I’d say he’s been in a few things since Return of the Jedi:”
Cartoon voices. That’s what he does. I’m not bashing him. I’m just calling it what it is.
The ending to “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” was one of the best moving endings I have ever seen.
I remembered seeing him in Seaquest, Wing Commander, and Flash. When he was in Flash I honestly didn’t recognize him.
Good to see he hasn’t been starving for work.
I’m still waiting for the sequel to “Corvette Summer.”
