In other news, a new book titled “Star Wars: Everything You Need to Know” revealed new information about Luke Skywalker’s in “Star Wars: The Last Jedi.”
The book confirmed that Luke has been in a self-imposed exile on Ahch-To for a long while now. As Luke only depends on the food that he can take on the planet, Hamill cleared that his character is not eating Porgs.
There are swirling rumors that Luke takes the lovely creature as his dinner, in order to survive his stay on the island.

When Rey (Daisy Ridley) found him, the Force prodigy would try her best to bring him back to the Resistance.
