The Star Wars movies are famous for their memorable lines, which have become as well-known as the films themselves. Even a simple phrase like “I know,” delivered with the right inflection, instantly connects with fans. Luke Skywalker has many iconic quotes, and Mark Hamill, the actor who played him, has a particular favorite.
Mark Hamill recently told ScreenRant that his favorite line as Luke Skywalker comes from the original Star Wars film. He explained it’s such a memorable line that it’s appeared in every Star Wars movie made since. Hamill then shared the line itself…
My absolute favorite line from all the Star Wars movies is, ‘I have a very bad feeling about this.’ It’s so iconic – they included it in almost every film, always with a different character saying it!
“I have a bad feeling about this” is a beloved line from Star Wars because it fits so many different scenarios. It’s likely been said more than any other line in the films, aside from the iconic “May the Force be with you.”
As a movie fan, it’s tough to beat a truly iconic line, and ‘May the Force be with you’ from the original Star Wars is definitely up there! I remember when Luke says it as the Millennium Falcon heads towards the Death Star – it just gave me chills. What’s amazing is that it’s been repeated in every Star Wars movie since, usually word-for-word. Honestly, whenever a new trilogy comes out, I always anticipate hearing it – it feels like a necessary part of the experience!
The iconic line has been spoken by several characters throughout the Star Wars saga. Harrison Ford delivered it in both Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens, while Ewan McGregor’s Obi-Wan Kenobi said it in two of the three prequel films. Carrie Fisher, Billy Dee Williams, and Hayden Christensen have also spoken the line. Interestingly, it was even communicated through BB-8’s beeps and whistles in The Last Jedi.

Disney+ subscriptions start at $11.99 per month with ads. If you’re a Star Wars fan and want to stream all the movies and series, including spotting every instance of the iconic line “I’ve got a bad feeling about this,” then Disney+ is for you. See the deal here.
The newer Star Wars films played with the famous line, “I have a good feeling about this.” For example, the droid K-2SO starts to say it but is interrupted – something that also happens in the Disney+ series Skeleton Crew. In Solo: A Star Wars Story, actor Alden Ehrenreich delivers the line, but his character’s optimism turns out to be completely wrong.
It’s almost certain we’ll hear the famous line in future Star Wars films. It would fit perfectly coming from Ryan Gosling in a potential Star Wars: Starfighter movie. It will be interesting to see if it’s included in The Mandalorian and Grogu, especially since that film is based on a TV show. The line has appeared in other Star Wars series on Disney+, but not yet in The Mandalorian and Grogu.
