Incredibly odd thought, but maybe Ep 9 could use a CGI Recreation of Sebastian Shaw as Anakin’s force ghost, who has been trying to contact Kylo Ren but has been consistently pushed away by Snoke. Who better to tear down Vader idolization than Vader?

Or to be perfectly honest, Hayden Christensen is only 8 years younger than Anakin when he died…

If that’s true, it’s hilarious just how bad the prequels are in keeping continuity with the OT. Hayden Christiansen is 37 now, which would make Darth Vader 45 when he died. And Sebastian Shaw was in his mid-late 70s when they shot ROTJ.

But to be honest, I wouldn’t mind seeing Christiansen as Anakin Skywalker in IX. Perhaps he could be more convincing with a better director and a better script.
