Hayden Christensen

Hayden Christensen was born April 19th 1981 in Vancouver, Canada. He started acting at a young age but his big break came when he was eighteen. He was cast in the lead role in the Fox Family network's Higher Ground (2000), and his impressive performance caught the attention of a number of Hollywood executives

One movie maker who certainly noticed Hayden, was George Lucas. George was in the process of casting his latest Star Wars movie and decided that Hayden was the prefect choice for Anakin Skywalker. In 2002 Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones was released and Hayden became an overnight superstar.

Since then Hayden has appeared in the movie Shattered Glass (2003), and of course the final Star Wars film, Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005)
