Sebastian Stan, best known as Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier from the 'Captain America' movies, is a dead ringer for a young Mark Hamill, best known as Luke Skywalker from 'Star Wars.' Hey, Disney. You know what to do.

Instagram user morphy_me first noticed the similarity between Stan and a young Hamill, by sharing the below image.

It didn't take long for the image to be brought to the attention of all around awesome dude and the master Jedi himself -- Mark Hamill, who also noticed a slight resemblance between his younger self and Stan.

Stan also took notice, but seemed a little less optimistic about being involved in the franchise than most of the fans are after seeing the images... probably because he auditioned for Star Wars (reportedly 'The Force Awakens') four times, unsuccessfully. He did seem open to the idea of it happening someday though.

Disney should totally go for it. I'd love to see an actor with Stan's talents play Luke Skywalker in a film (or series of films) set between 'Return of the Jedi' and 'The Force Awakens.' Plus, they're already working with Stan for a bunch more Marvel films (Disney owns Marvel and Star Wars). Once they clear up all of the mystery in the years between Episode VI and VII, that should be their first priority.

They wouldn't even need to connect the story to 'The Force Awakens,' they could just have them be one-off adventures about Luke searching for remaining Jedi, and more interestingly, hunting the remaining Sith. How badass would that be? It sounds a hell of a lot more exciting than that Harrison Ford-less Han Solo prequel. I'm sorry, but there is only one person I want to see play Han. Although, morphy_me also posted a picture of the new actor cast as Han. Doesn't look too shabby, but there's still only one Han Solo.
