Hayden Christensen

^ I love him in just that white shirt in the sexy picture post by Orchide! :D

also, an article I found interesting that I gacked from JJB:

::STAR WARS WEEK: FROM DARK SIDE TO THE SEA SIDE
DARTH VADER MOVES TO BRIGHTON!
From John Hiscock In Los Angeles
NOW he has hung up his light sabre for the last time, Hayden Christensen is putting the Dark Side behind him and moving to Britain to start a new life.

The footloose young Canadian, who starred as Anakin Skywalker in the last two Star Wars films, has rented a flat in Brighton while he hunts for a house in London, where he plans to renew some old friendships and make some new ones.

And it is a safe bet that the handsome actor will find the Force is on his side when it comes to meeting English girls.

"I just came out of a relationship and don't have a girlfriend right now," he confesses.



"I look for qualities in women that I find important in all people - decency and honesty - and a sense of self-respect. Obviously, someone with a pretty face and all that good stuff, too."


But, says 24-year-old Hayden, he is not the sort to jump into bed with just any woman.


"Sexually, I was a late bloomer and promiscuity does not have a very strong place in my life," he says.


"Personally, I believe that sexuality is an extension of caring for someone."


He developed his fondness for London during the four months he appeared on the West End stage in This Is Our Youth and while filming Star Wars - his final scene in the forthcoming Revenge Of The Sith was filmed at Elstree Studios in January this year.


In that time, he made some firm friends and decided he'd like to spend longer in the city.


"I just developed an affinity for London," he said. "I don't know... it suits me well and I'd like to make it more of a home in the future."


That future will also mean that after almost five years of Star Wars, he'll now be acting with real people and real scenery, rather than with puppets and blue screens.


HAYDEN seems to have grown up playing Anakin and, to Star Wars fans everywhere, he may always be the heroic young Jedi knight who, in George Lucas's saga, was lured to the Dark Side and became the evil Darth Vader.


"I'm still trying to get my head around the fact that it's over," he says.


"It has been all-consuming and I'm going to miss it but I'm also excited to be playing other roles and to be part of other films."


Hayden wasted no time lining up those "other films". He was speaking in Beverly Hills, on a flying visit from Italy, where he's currently filming The Decameron, a comedy based on Giovanni Boccaccio's 14th century classic.


And the young star is more at ease talking about his career than his personal life.


He began acting in Toronto, when his actress sister's agent persuaded him to appear in TV commercials.


The exposure embarrassed him and, when confronted by the other schoolkids, denied it was him in the adverts.


"I wasn't one of those kids who was always looking for the spotlight," he recalled. "In fact, I shied away from it.


"When the commercials came out, I'd be like: 'No, no, no, that's just someone who looks like me.'"


It was only when he went to high school and a teacher encouraged him to think about an acting career that he began to embrace the idea.


He worked in Canadian television films and series and his first feature film role was in Sofia Coppola's The Virgin Suicides, in 1999.


Then he was chosen by Lucas for the Sky-walker role, seeing off Leonardo DiCaprio and other candidates because of his chemistry with co-star Natalie Portman.


Lucas says of him: "Hayden has a dark side and that's one of the reasons I cast him.


"He's also handsome and charming which is important, because if Anakin were always just Darth Vader, who'd care about him? It's difficult to pull off and Hayden does it wonderfully."


While the Star Wars films made Hayden an internationally recognised star, they did little to showcase his acting abilities.


He was criticised for his wooden delivery in Attack Of The Clones and while he is much more natural in Revenge Of The Sith, he still doesn't display the talents he showed in his rare non-Star Wars roles, as the pill-popping disaffected teenager in Life As A House and as a journalist in Shattered Glass. Now he's hoping to up the ante with The Decameron. "Every day we're on a new location and the environment is tangible," he says.


"That's what you look for as an actor - stimulus you can respond to. With a film like Star Wars, you're deprived of that."


Seventy per cent of Revenge Of The Sith is digital, inserted afterwards on computers, so Hayden found himself reacting to imaginary people and events.


"It's a different way of going about it," he says with a wry smile. "Sometimes it's not conducive to doing your best work but it's a learning experience."


THE star admits that showing up every day and seeing the same blue backdrop, the same camera placement and the same costume gave him an unwelcome sense of deja vu.


"I remember one time I'd been looking forward to my scene with Yoda but when I arrived on the set they propped up a puppet next to me and an assistant director did the Yoda lines - and that's what you're given," he laughs.


"It can be very trying at times and you really have to focus on what you're doing because you don't have anything to react to."


Still, now it's promotion time and Hayden is doing the rounds of European premieres. With his mother and grandmother - "they get a big kick out of these things" - he's walking the red carpets in Cannes, London, Berlin and Rome.


After that, it's back to The Decameron and then on to other projects, which Hayden is remaining coy about for the time being.


With the optimism of youth, he is looking forward to a long future in films and isn't the slightest bit concerned that the fate of his predecessor, Mark Hamill, may befall him, too.


After appearing in the first three Star Wars films as Luke Skywalker, Hamill's career nose-dived and these days his work mainly consists of straight-to-video films and voice-overs.


Hayden says: "All I can do is focus on the work that excites me and if it excites the people who go to see the movies I'm in then, hopefully, I can avoid that syndrome.


"Fame is a very bizarre thing. You have to take it with a grain of salt and have a laugh about it because we are just actors and the importance placed on what we do is a little out of whack at times.


"The machinery of Hollywood can build you up into something and dispose of you very quickly. So I'm trying to really enjoy this time in my life... and milk it for all it's worth."


Good think I intend on moving to london sometime. haha. and I will be studying abroad in europe...:D!

An actress (a nurse in Pearl Harbour is the one that comes to mind now) who was previously a heroin addict model, I think.:huh:

I think this pictures are asking for your "magical powers" Bohochic! You just have to delete her face and put another one there. :brows: And we know you're good at doing it!
which softwear do you use, anyway? 'cause I sure want to learn how to do those magical tricks...:innocent:
 
hey boho, didn't you just see "SinCity" yesterday??
James King is in it- haha- she must have left a strong impression on you!
 
Just before I go to bed try to dream pleasant dreams:brows: , I leave you with a nice view... someone who just got out of a bed:lol: ( I don't remember if this picture was already posted, sorry)
Oh! and did I tell you I want to be a makeup artist in the movie industry??:innocent:

She looked so different! Well I guess that was the effect......:p

Nah Sin City was too confusing for me:blush: .....did you know some people walked out of the theatre? I was ushering it today and as I was walking back to my screen, a man came out and I was like, " Sir, are you okay? Is the film not your liking?"

And he goes: "Its horrible":rolleyes:

Well can't please everyone....the only thing I liked in it was Clive Owen.:heart: :blush:

LOL! Okay that was bad....I need sleep! Adios!:heart:
 
^ lol at BohoChic's makeup artist dream. hee.

I'd rather be his costume designer...hands and measurements everywhere, you know. haha. ;)

what I think would be fun is if I could steal one of his blazers to wear over a tank & miniskirt. Haha. I'd feel like it was a robe (particularly as he's about 6' and I'm only 5'4"), but it'd be cute. Hee. :D
