When did Mark Hamill start looking like Orson Welles?

I’m not sure when it happened, but it did.

Mark Hamill started looking curiously like Orson Welles (minus the massive steak and wine gut, of course).

I don’t know, maybe it’s just me, but I find the similarities kinda striking.

Is it the beard? The patches of grey just under the chin? Or maybe it’s the graying, receding hairline and the coy, furled, once-a-smoker brow that shield those cold-as-ice eyes?

If Hamill keeps up the trend of looking as haggard as he currently does, I wouldn’t be surprised if he directs his own Henry V adaption come this time five years or ends up slumming TV spots for some cheap American wine.
