The director of AHSOKA talks about the return of Hayden Christensen’s Anakin Skywalker

At the beginning of the development of Star Wars: Ahsokawe knew it Hayden ChristensenAnakin Skywalker would return to the series. We just didn’t know any of the details of his return, and then the character appeared at the end of episode 5, and fans were incredibly excited.

The episode that reintroduced Anakin was directed by Peter Ramseyand in a recent interview with IGN, he talked about Christiansen returning for the first time since reprising his role as Darth Vader in the TV series. Obi-Wan Kenobi series. The version of the character in which we see AhsokaHowever, it is very different. There is more of a loving presence than someone who is out watching the world burn. Obviously he’s been solving his problems since he died. Ramsey said:

“I told Dave [Filoni], ‘man, you gave me a foolproof episode. I was so lucky because I got the one where all these different strands of the story converge and explode. You would really have to screw it up for it to not be compelling in the end.”

Ramsey went on to praise Christensen personally, saying the star was as happy as anyone to bring Anakin back to life saying:

“He’s a really sweet, low-key guy. He was pretty happy to be there after all this time. It meant a lot to him.”

The director also explained what he expected from Christensen in the scene where Anakin and Ahsoka reunite:

“We just talked about what it means for him to see Ahsoka after all this time, which is a reunion for them, and I just said, ‘It’s like I haven’t seen your daughter in two years. She had gone to college and you see her again and she’s like a different person, but still your daughter.'”

I’m curious to see how Anakin ends up being used in the series and how exactly he will help Ahsoka on her journey to find Thrawn and Ezra. Are you happy to see Christensen return to the role of Anakin again?
