I would prefer an actor that resembled, at least to a certain extent, a young Sebastian Shaw.
Honestly I can sort of see Jake Lloyd turn into a Sebastian Shaw kind of guy, which probably helped influence the casting in that direction. But Hayden just completely destroyed the illusion of continuity between the kid and the man. He doesn't fit at all.
And am I the only one who thinks Ewan McGregor doesn't look like Alec Guinness at all?
