Hayden Christensen becoming Darth Vader

I'm so glad they cast Hayden Christensen as Darth Vader instead of another actor, he can play both Anakin and Vader perfectly

[wingman-]

It was a crime that Hayden Christensen didn’t play Vader in Rogue one.

[cladladd]

honestly it just blows mind the dedication of actors, can’t believe he chose to get burned by a lava river for maximum realism.

I hate Disney Star Wars but man, im so glad they kept Hayden as Vader. He got way too much shit for the prequels. He did a great job with the lines he was handed, but the lines were shit and he got blamed for it. His performance was as good as it possibly could be and I love him. Same with the guy who played Little Anakin. That poor kid got trashed for no good reason.

This is actual acting. Hayden actually learned the lightsaber combat choreography and learned to hold his breath just to act in movies/tv.

The only good thing about this show was that Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor was in it and the rest speaks for itself

[Workerbee-zynx]

Vader is the coolest villain ever. Takes skills to do sci fi series.

[krel]

It feels like Star Wars has been training Hayden to actually be like some super soldier. We know hes actually a good duelist and highly athletic and now this too.

I just don’t get why they didn’t give him an actual breathing tube. It’s not like he wasn’t already all hooked up into shit in there anyway.

[davidbeknownst]

So much effort from the actors and everybody involved in making the production and sets.
Shame about whoever did the writing though.

Hayden did a terrific job, George knew what he was doing after all

[alc]

lol they REEALLY couldn't have one tube that fed him oxygen?

[bullymaguire]

Lord vader... Are you feeling alright?

[joeg]

...and why couldnt they hook Hayden to a breathing apparatus? I mean, the costume for the tank INCLUDES A MASK!

[adamb]

Never understood why he had to do breath holds when a scuba system isn't THAT expensive. I mean I get it, one might argue "why pay for all that equipment when he can just hold his breath" but then "why hire a dive coach to train him to hold his breath when you can just rent scuba gear."

[blueshit]

I like how Hayden is credited as Anakin

[liamramjean]

No one could have pulled it off as well as Hayden, he was was made for this roll

[zersixx]

Hayden is the goat, they couldnt have found any better person to play Darth vader / anakin!

[iannickCZ]

Putting an oxygen hose will be much easier.

[AWDTH]

This is what you get when you hire an actor that is actually passionate about the source material
