Hayden Christensen and Ian McDiarmid join "forces" to bring you this Star Wars panel of galactic proportions! Join them as they discuss what it was like to play two of the most iconic characters in the entire Star Wars franchise.
Hayden Christensen portrayed an adult Anakin Skywalker in both Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. Christensen also portrayed Darth Vader in the final prequel. Anakin Skywalkr was a Jedi Knight of the Galactic Republic and the 'Chosen One' of the Force. After turning to the dark side of the Force, he became known as Darth Vader, a Dark Lord of the Sith and apprentice to Emperor Darth Sidious.
Ian McDiarmid portrayed Darth Sidious, the Dark Lord of the Sith and Galactic Emperor, who ruled the galaxy from the fall of the Galactic Republic to the rise of the Galactic Empire in the Star Wars films. He appears in every film of the prequel trilogy, as well as in Return of the Jedi. Although he did not play the Emperor in the original release of The Empire Strikes Back in 1980, he was edited in for the DVD release of the original trilogy in 2011. He has the distinction of being one of the few actors from the original trilogy to reprise the role of a Human character in the prequel trilogy.
