In a recent interview, Hayden Christensen and Diego Luna revealed their shared passion for collecting props from their iconic Star Wars roles. Speaking with Variety, both actors expressed their deep connection to the franchise and the significance of these props in their lives.
Christensen, known for his portrayal of Anakin Skywalker in two Star Wars prequels–Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith–as well as on Disney+’s Obi-Wan Kenobi, discussed his lifelong admiration for Star Wars. Being cast as Anakin Skywalker was a childhood dream come true.
“I mean, getting to swing a lightsaber is pretty awesome,” Christensen said. “I got to keep a couple of them. One from the prequels, and then I got to keep two lightsabers from the Obi-Wan show–one Darth Vader, and one Anakin, because they’re a little bit different.”
