Hayden Christensen arrived seemingly out of nowhere to land the role of pre-Vader Anakin Skywalker, becoming one of Hollywood’s hottest stars overnight and largely untested as a screen presence. After a respected turn in Life As A House<\/em>(see previous episode!), the Attack of the Clones<\/em> reviews soured audiences on this brand new star. The very next year, he gave a terrific performance in Shattered Glass<\/em> as journalist Stephen Glass who famously fabricated stories for The New Republic. But awards bodies overlooked Christensen’s work and instead nominated the rising Peter Sarsgaard as Glass’ pseudo-rival Chuck Lane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This episode, we talk about the Entertainment Weekly It List that was Christensen’s first debut post-Star Wars casting and his return to the franchise. We also talk about director\/writer Billy Ray, Sarsgaard’s near nomination here, and journalism movies that were successful with Oscar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Topics also include working with fact checkers, college group watch television, and the 2003 Independent Spirit Awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
