With Hayden being older, even having an older hayden ghost both in ROTJ and ROTS would fit, since it would fit him redeeming himself “at the moment” and not a … revert … back before going Sithy.

It would be interesting to see what the Kenobi series will do with Hayden … could be useful for any deep faking for ROTJ hanger scene…

Anyway, specifically for this edit, Jonh did age Hayden a bit, which in my book maybe even using some photos and whatnot of hayden now to use as a fake app to age him more to be in line with how he would have looked at the time of ROTJ if he wasn’t lava-ed

EDIT: my thoughts go this way specifically for a full on trilogy to link from the PT all the way to the ST. I have nothing against Shaw since he WAS Vader’s face before the PT … but for the sake of an entire 9 movie thing, like what Hal has done, having it all link together would be nice. I agree Shaw in his ROTJ makes sense specifically for those movies, but it would be good if there was a way to replace Shaw with Hayden’s face all old like both on the hanger and then his force ghost using fake app and what not to implement Hayden older to fit.
