Overview
- At Fan Expo New Orleans, Hayden Christensen said Robert De Niro visited the Revenge of the Sith set to see what George Lucas was doing and watched the Anakin–Obi‑Wan duel.
- Christensen recounted De Niro noticing his pre‑take push‑ups and saying he did the same, which the actor described as encouraging.
- During the same event, Christensen was asked what Force‑ghost Anakin would tell Kylo Ren and replied, “I don’t know… Next question.”
- Fans online interpreted the brief dodge as a possible hint about the long‑rumored Hunt for Ben Solo project, though outlets note there is no evidence the film exists.
- Reporting reiterates that Christensen is confirmed to return as Anakin in Ahsoka season 2, which does not yet have a release date.
