Quote

"All I want is what my mother wanted for me when she raised me -- to be happy. For that, I don't need to be in a relationship. I don't need to have a certain level of respect. I just want to care very much about what I do and be kind to everyone in the process. It's important that I can feel that. That's happiness."

Hayden Christensen

Why He's No. 85

Given the task of portraying Anakin Skywalker (a.k.a Darth Vader) in Star Wars: Episode II and Episode III of the second leg of George Lucas' uber-famous sci-fi series, Hayden Christensen has emerged from obscurity to become one of the hottest young actors in Hollywood. Time will tell if he can escape the Star Wars shadow once the series is done, but if work in Shattered Glass and Life as a House are any indication, he should do just fine.

Back Stage

Commuting back and forth from the imaginary world of Star Wars: Episode III -- Revenge of the Sith to the real world set of Shattered Glass was tough, but Hayden accomplished the feat, and then returned to work with the Star Wars crew full-time, up until its release in May 2005. As this final modern prequel shows the ultimate downfall of Anakin Skywalker, Christensen got the opportunity to show off his true skills and certainly does not disappoint. When hype surrounding the last Star Wars blockbuster dies down, Hayden, who travels between his homes in Los Angeles and Toronto, will surely be able to cultivate a career filled with successes that go beyond the sci-fi realm. He is set to star in The Decameron with Mischa Barton, slated for release in 2006. Christensen was slated to appear in an adaptation of William Gibson's seminal cyberpunk novel, Neuromancer, set for a 2009 release, but has since been removed from the IMDB cast list.In September of 2008 it was announced that Christensen and Paul Walker signed onto the crime drama Bone Deep set for a 2010 release. He will play a young detective alongside Matt Dillon. Quantum Quest: A Cassini Space Odyssey will be the fourth film in which Christensen will co-star again with Samuel L Jackson.

Forcaste

Playing the modern version of one of film's most renowned villains, Hayden Christensen has given a whole new generation of Star Wars fans a reason to love, and hate, Darth Vader. The Canadian star is an intense, powerful actor who, with two highly high-profile films already to his credit, has a long career ahead of him in Hollywood.
