When and how will Hayden Christensen star as Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars: Ahsoka? That was the big question all fans asked themselves because by the time of the series, Anakin had long since become Darth Vader. Now, in episode 4 of “Ahsoka”, he actually came back in a final twist – and not just in a flashback, as previously speculated, among others.
Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson) encounters her former Jedi master after being thrown off a cliff by Baylan Skoll (Ray Stevenson) in an illuminated plane – and Anakin doesn’t just appear there as a Force Ghost. This place is probably called the World Between Worlds, a mysterious power plane separate from time and space that appeared in “Star Wars: Rebels”.
Such an encounter is possible there and it is to be expected that we will see a lot more interaction there between Anakin and his former student known as “Snips” in Episode 5.
