Hayden Christensen says there's still "good, meaty stuff" to explore in the Darth Vader era of Star Wars, and I really want to see that spin-off

Anakin Skywalker actor Hayden Christensen has shared his Star Wars wish list, and I really need to see these projects.

Christensen played Anakin in the Star Wars prequels, returning to reprise his role for the Obi-Wan Kenobi Disney Plus show and then Ahsoka. He'll be back in Ahsoka season 2, and, by the looks of things, it will be in a larger role than season 1.

"I'd love to get to do some more Clone Wars-era Anakin, too," Christensen said at Fan Expo Boston (H/T Collider). "I think there are some fun stories there to tell,” Christensen said. “And if it meant I got to swing a lightsaber with Ewan [McGregor] again, that would be amazing.”

That's not the only era in Anakin's life he'd like to revisit, either. "I'd love to get to do some more stuff in the Darth Vader timeline… I think there's some good, meaty stuff there to explore still," Christensen explained. "If the powers that be decided a Vader spin-off is something they want to see, I'd be there in a heartbeat. 100%. I would love to. It would be amazing to keep exploring this character in both eras."
