Comic-Con favorite Mark Hamill thrills fans by attending the 2025 event in San Diego

SAN DIEGO, Calif. — Day two of San Diego Comic-Con was just as bustling as the first. While the crowded convention floor limits your speed, it allows for appreciating the numerous attendees in costume.

Friday, we found some superheroes who flew in from Las Vegas – and a guy who’s maybe too big a “force” in the Comic-Con world – Mark Hamill.

“I love fans. Without them, I wouldn’t be here, but down there, they kind of swarm, and you get stuck,” Hamill remarked. “You can’t do just one selfie; you have to do 50,000 selfies. That’s the rule!”

Hamill’s presence is evident throughout Comic-Con since “Star Wars” always shines here. This year, Hamill is thrilled to discuss another venture, his new film, “The Long Walk,” adapted from Stephen King’s novel.

“I’m just a badass. I mean, if I do my job right, everyone will hate my guts! That’s OK,” said Hamill. “If you’re a villain, it’s great to have the boos. Boo!”

For another Comic-Con scare, you can head to the nearby Hard Rock to check out the immersive experience going on for the upcoming film, “Predator: Badlands.”

“Huge ‘Predator’ fan. Love the movies,” said Travis Frame. “I mean, the original is iconic. I think what (Dan) Trachtenberg did with ‘Prey’ was awesome. Super excited to see what he does with this.”

There is so much to see and do here that convention-goers get to pick and choose. And sometimes, they just choose to just enjoy what’s going on around them.

“I love Comic-Con. I love cosplay. It’s 2025. I’ve been attending for 37 years,” said Dean LeCrone. “It is a love fest. It’s the largest pop culture event on the planet. There’s something for everybody.”
