Hayden Christensen is supposedly reprising his role of Anakin Skywalker for the series.
The weird part, however, is that LRM specifically labels Anakin Skywalker as a “regular” role in the new series.
The information is labeled as a “Top Shelf Rumor,” but LRM states that they “can safely say that Hayden Christensen will be reprising his role as Anakin Skywalker for the upcoming Disney+ Kenobi series.”
The show is planned to take place in between the Prequel and Original Trilogy, when Anakin is, well, Darth Vader.
