Everything he's done after Star Wars!
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Though most people know him as Anakin Skywalker in the Star Wars prequel trilogy, Hayden Christensen has been pretty busy in the years since their release. Though Christensen has recently made a triumphant return to the series that launched his popularity, he’s got a good amount of other movies in his history now. From action-thrillers to romantic comedies, Star Wars laid the groundwork for all kind of genres for him to try out.
14 Virgin Territory - 2007 Christensen stepped into historicals in Virgin Territory. Set in Renaissance Italy, Christensen plays Lorenzo, one of several young people seeking refuge in a convent in the countryside - though Lorenzo is there under false pretenses. The lustful adventures that follow send the charming and roguish Lorenzo into a tailspin as he realizes what it means to be in love for real.
11 Takers - 2008 Takers sees Christensen as a member of a successful band of bank robbers who have achieved incredible success by sticking to a strict set of rules. However, a former associate is released from jail and shows up with a risky plan they just can’t refuse - despite knowing that this member of their team has reason to seek revenge on the rest of the group. Unfortunately, the plan puts them in the path of Russian mobsters as well as a detective hellbent on taking them all down.
8 “Zamboni” - 2010 Zamboni saw Christensen outside of movies for the first time. Instead, he plays a security guard in a music video for Canadian hip-hop artist Ko-S. Though there isn’t necessarily a story to follow throughout the video, Christensen brings his Anakin-like intensity to the silent role.
5 90 Minutes in Heaven - 2015 Based on the bestselling novel of the same name, 90 Minutes in Heaven tells the story of Don Piper, who claims to have briefly visited heaven after a horrific car crash. This is one of the more dramatic roles that Christensen has been in. The movie really highlights his ability to lean on the more emotional aspects of his characters, which is something he notably brought to the young and tortured Darth Vader.
