"A pair of trousers worn by Mark Hamill while filming Star Wars: A New Hope are to be sold at auction. The pale coloured Levi&amp;#039;s have been estimated to reach between $70,000 (\u00C2\u00A346,178) and $100,000 (\u00C2\u00A365,970) when they go under the hammer.  According to News.com.au, the item of clothing was worn by Hamill - who played Luke Skywalker in the first three films in the franchise - throughout filming for the 1977 movie. Nate D Sanders, a spokesman for the company auctioning the trousers in Los Angeles, said: &amp;quot;Star Wars is one of those rare cinematic experiences that most people remember their whole lives. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s hard to believe now, but Star Wars in 1977 was not a &amp;#039;go&amp;#039; from the start. Several studios passed on making it. But now, we look back on it, over 35 years later, and it&amp;#039;s the 3rd highest grossing movie of all time.&amp;quot;  The seventh film in the Star Wars series, titled Episode VII, will be shot in the UK and directed by JJ Abrams, and is scheduled for a 2015 release. Harrison Ford has hinted that he could reprise his role as Han Solo in the movie, as has Anthony Daniels as C-3PO. &amp;#039;Star Wars&amp;#039; actors - then and now - photo gallery:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
