How does Christensen go back into Star Wars?
Hayden Christensen told in an interview held byTotal Filmin the new issue of the magazine featuring Obi-Wan Kenobi on the cover. He tells “When George [Lucas] had brought me onto the prequels, it was to play Anakin. He gets knighted asDarth Vadertowards the end, and for a couple of scenes, I get to put the suit on. But my journey with the character was with Anakin Skywalker. But the character? He’s such a complex character. And now, getting to explore the mindset and the emotional state ofDarth Vader, has been a lot of fun.”
“The extent of this journey, I think, remains to be seen,” Christensen shared withTotal Film, per GamesRadar, when discussing more outings as the Sith Lord. “But what a privilege to get to come back and do this, and to be a part of this project.”

Darth Vadermade a live-action return forRogue One: A Star Wars Storybut was only featured in a few scenes, while Ben Mendelsohn’s Krennic served as the main villain of that film.
