Star Wars’ Hayden Christensen is clearly sworn to secrecy about how his character will issue into subsequent month’s Obi-Wan Kenobi, however he is at liberty to debate the analysis he did to organize for his return to the galaxy far, distant. “I went back and rewatched all the films,” the actor informed Entertainment Weekly about reprising the function of Anakin Skywalker as he absolutely steps into Darth Vader. “And I also got into the animated shows, The Clone Wars and Rebels.”
The animated exhibits from the thoughts of Dave Filoni actually fill in Anakin’s arc in methods we want we might have seen in live-action—and now that Christensen’s returning for Obi-Wan Kenobi and (ultimately) Ahsoka, we might get to see them in any case. “It was interesting,” he stated of binging the animated collection. “They did a lot with these characters in those shows … There was interesting stuff there to learn about. It was great fun getting to go back and re-immerse yourself in this world that just continues to grow and become more and more vast.”
As talked about, Christensen may also be showing within the Rosario Dawson automobile Ahsoka, so actually attending to know that facet of Anakin as a Jedi Master coaching a Padawan ought to illuminate his strategy in that collection with extra historic context—in addition to serve what’s subsequent for the portrayal of Vader. (Give us some “Twilight of the Apprentice” flashbacks!) While we gained’t get extra Darth Maul—which we’re glad for, truthfully—re-imagining the context of the years earlier than Star Wars: A New Hope in constructing what results in Vader and Kenobi’s closing duel on the Death Star goes to be fascinating.
