Disney has shocked everyone in the Star Wars universe by announcing the return of a Star Wars actor. Hayden Christensen returns as Darth Vader.

 

“The most beautiful thing of all” is what Ewan McGregor called it today in an Obi-Wan TV series featurette on Disney’s Investor Day about Christensen’s return as Darth Vader.

 

Christensen was discovered by George Lucas, an unknown actor who took on the role of grown-up Anakin Skywalker, the father of Luke and Leia who eventually turns to the dark side of The Force and becomes the legendary Darth Vader. Christensen made his Star Wars debut in Episode II: Attack of the Clones and then he continued into Revenge of the Sith. We literally see Anakin’s demise and meltdown as he becomes Darth Vader.

 

The Disney+ original series will be set 10 years after the events of The Revenge of the Sith.
