Exciting news emerged from Star Wars Celebration: Hayden Christensen is set to reprise his role as Anakin Skywalker in Season 2 of the acclaimed series, Ahsoka. While details on Anakin's specific role remain under wraps, the announcement has sparked immense enthusiasm among fans eager to see more of Ahsoka's journey with her former master.

Christensen made a special appearance at the Ahsoka panel, where he expressed his joy at returning to the iconic role. "It was a dream to get to do," he remarked. "The way they conceived how to do it was brilliant in getting to explore the World Between Worlds. I thought it was all really exciting."

Ahsoka series creator Dave Filoni humorously noted his determination to collaborate with Christensen again, saying, "I had to invent entire dimensions to make it happen." This light-hearted comment underscores the creative lengths the team is willing to go to enrich the Star Wars universe.

Christensen also shared insights into the discussions about Anakin's activities during the Clone Wars. "All of this had been presented well in the animated world, but I was really excited to do that in live action," he explained. "As much as I love the traditional Jedi robes I wore during the prequels, it was exciting to get to see Anakin with a new look."

During the panel, Filoni elaborated on how their shared history with George Lucas influenced their approach to Anakin's return. This collaboration allowed them to bridge gaps in their understanding and deliver a comprehensive portrayal of the character. Christensen added, "I always have George's voice in the back of my head saying, 'faster, more intense!'"
