Sounds like he's actually being quite liberal about the whole thing.

I generally don't think actors should really... give strong opinions regarding canon, especially before the series is done. Because 1) they can give false impressions that they have any impact on what is or isn't canon, which they don't, 2) they don't even know, most of the time, what's "coming up" - the Darth Vader being Luke's dad thing is a good example, even the people who knew the reveal (which was hardly anyone) learned on the day of, and some thought it was a trick and a lie, and 3) I think actors should be careful and considerate in how they interact with fans. I mean, I don't mind them chatting, and I suppose it's less about giving opinions than being diplomatic with the fandom and letting fans be free to interpret things how they want.

But anyway, I can respect that he thought it was a bromance, but acknowledges he has no idea what's in store for the character.

He did say it was just a bromance after the premiere, but this quote is a few days old. So he changed his mind... Or tries to be inclusive in an "anything can happen" way.

Actually, day-of, the line was something completely different ("Obi-Wan killed your father," I believe). It wasn't until the movie came out that people involved in filming knew. The only ones who knew Darth Vader was Luke's father were George Lucas, the writer, James Earl Jones and presumably some people who did editing work.

Mark Hamill was actually pulled aside right before the scene and told what the correct line was supposed to be, so he could react appropriately. I don't think David Prowse found out until he saw it in theaters, though.

ayrt I know. :) Mark Hamill knew the day of filming the scene, but the actor physically playing Darth Vader did not know and said Obi-wan killed your father. James Earl Jones has said that, when he recorded the line, he thought it must be a trick.

He initially said it was all in Oscar's head.

Oscar was talking about the (b)romance between Poe/BB8 originally
