Man of the Week excerpts

I'm posting these excerpts to show why
Hayden was voted Man Of the Week.
(Because he deserves it!)
My reason would be that he really caught
my attention in The Attack of The
Clones-with his wonderful and dreamy acting.

Why we like him? (askmen.com)



Playing the modern version of one of film's most renowned villains, Hayden Christensen has given a whole new generation of Star Wars fans a reason to love, and hate, Darth Vader. The Canadian star is an intense, powerful actor who, with two highly high-profile films already to his credit, has a long career ahead of him in Hollywood.

why is he famous?


Given the task of portraying Anakin Skywalker (a.k.a Darth Vader) in Star Wars: Episode II and Episode III of the second leg of George Lucas' uber-famous sci-fi series, Hayden Christensen has emerged from obscurity to become one of the hottest young actors in Hollywood. Time will tell if he can escape the Star Wars shadow once the series is done, but if work in Shattered Glass and Life as a House are any indication, he should do just fine.

To the delight of Star Wars devotees and movie buffs in general, Hayden Christensen has arrived on the scene. Critics were quick to point out what was lacking in his first blockbuster, Star Wars: Episode II -- Attack of the Clones, but Christensen himself certainly was not to blame. In fact, his twisted, tortured take on the character of Anakin Skywalker was highly lauded by such experienced costars as Natalie Portman and Samuel L. Jackson.
