His silhouette is the most recognizable in film history. He can murder you with just a thought. He is your dad. NOOOOOO!
Yes, we’re referring to none other than Darth Vader. What’s more, there’s proof mounting that Anakin Skywalker will be back for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. It appeared the ideal time to check in with the five actors who joined to bring the universally adored Dark Lord of the Sith to our screens.
1. Jake Lloyd (Episode I)
The ten-year-old Jake Lloyd turned into a star of George Lucas’ eagerly awaited return to Star Wars in The Phantom Menace. This was after a repeating role in ER.
From that point forward, he gave the voice of youthful Anakin Skywalker in a many Star Wars games and made a mark in the convention circuit. Furthermore, he had been attached to direct an unreleased narrative about Tibetan refugees in India.
However, a year ago, Lloyd was arrested in South Carolina after a fast car chase with police in 2015. He is presently undergoing treatment for schizophrenia.
2. Hayden Christensen (Episode II-III)
Hayden Christensen was given the unpleasant task of depicting Anakin’s fall to the Dark Side in Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith.
He’s still in show biz and has showed up in Jumper, Factory Girl and in 90 Minutes in Heaven, which is a Christian film.
It may not be a stellar vocation, but the bright side is that he gets the opportunity to date Rachel Bilson at least. Also, there have been those unverified bits of gossip that he could appear in one of the new Star Wars movies…
You totally missed one – Bob Anderson. He wore the Vader suit for the iconic fight with Luke on Cloud City. And FYI, Mr. Anderson also created the lightsaber/Jedi fighting style.
