Hmm Mark Hamill is prolly the youngest still alive of the “main” cast at 72 so he’s gonna die at 86…seems entirely possible, though I hope not :-/

Yeah, I think he was always the youngest, Fisher was 5 years older.

Not a widely beloved performance, but on this episode of Prairie Home Companion, he plays Jim from Huckleberry Finn, catching up with ol' Huck. One of my all-time favorite bits.

Relevant part starts at 9:45
