Rumor: Hayden Christensen To Appear in Star Wars: Episode VIII

According to a rumor that originated from MakingStarWars.net, it seems that a former cast member from the Star Wars prequels is set to make his return in Star Wars: Episode VIII.

The site reports a rumor that Hayden Christensen will return to the Star Wars universe in the sequel to Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

“A team in the U.K. are soon heading to the U.S. to begin training Hayden Christensen for a Star Wars: Episode VIII appearance of some sort,” said Jason Ward Editor-In-Chief of Making Star Wars.

Christensen’s return would seem to point towards either a flashback scene or perhaps an even bigger story arc involving resurrection. Either way his return in Episode VIII would be nothing short of shocking to mega Star Wars fans around the globe.
