Star Wars actor who plays a young Darth Vader choreographs intense lightsaber battle in Leafs hat
The Star Wars franchise is one of the most popular and most profitable in the entertainment industry. The Toronto Maple Leafs franchise is one of the most popular and most profitable in the NHL. What do they have in common? Hayden Christensen.
The actor, who portrays Anakin Skywalker, A.K.A a young Darth Vader, was spotted during rehearsals for one of his Star Wars projects (Obi-Wan Kenobi on Disney+) grinding out some crazy lightsaber choreography in street clothes and a Maple Leafs hat. I'm not going to lie, this is pretty sick.
Christensen, a native of Vancouver, BC, is a noted Toronto Sports fan. Not only has he been spotted in Leafs gear and at Leafs games in the past, but he has also been spotted in Blue Jays gear at MLB games and has even thrown out the ceremonial opening pitch at a Jays game.
Ok, so maybe it's not directly hockey related, but it's pretty freaking cool.
