Hayden Christensen is returning to the force.
Despite having starred in several productions and gaining critical praise prior, the Canadian actor’s breakout performance was as Anakin Skywalker in the Star Wars prequel trilogy. He beat 1,500 other actors for the role.
It was announced last year that Christensen would reprise his role after 15 years in the upcoming Disney+ series, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and it now seems as though he will get to explore the character even further in another production for the streamer.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the 40-year-old actor will appear in the Star Wars offshoot Ahsoka, starring Rosario Dawson as the Jedi Knight she portrayed in The Mandalorian.
The new series is set years after the events which took place in Return of the Jedi, but could possibly see Christensen appear in flashbacks as Ahsoka was Anakin’s Padawan.
