Star Wars 9 LEAK? Anakin Skywalker 'is Darth Vader in HYBRID Force ghost scenes' with Rey?

This Christmas is not only the conclusion to the Star Wars prequel trilogy but also all nine episodes of the Skywalker saga. With this in mind and the fan backlash to The Last Jedi, surely director JJ Abrams will want to provide something really pleasing for fans. While Yoda’s Force ghost was a lovely surprise in The Last Jedi, could Hayden Christensen’s Anakin be back for Star Wars 9? It would certainly be a satisfying way to connect all three trilogies.

Now Star Wars theorist Mike Zeroh has cited unnamed sources as saying Christensen is expected to appear.

In a new YouTube video, he said: “A couple of weeks ago we actually heard…they were in negotiations with bringing Hayden Christensen on board for Episode IX.

“Now what’s really interesting about this movie is they will be using pieces of dialogue of Hayden Christensen from Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.”

Zeroh points out how Abrams, who directed The Force Awakens too, originally had plans for an Anakin Skywalker hybrid Force ghost, who was half Darth Vader.

Evidence for this is found in The Art of The Force Awakens book, which shows concept art for such a being.

And now the director is back on board for Star Wars 9, hopefully, this concept will become a reality on the big screen.

Zeroh also shared alleged scenes of Rey interacting with Anakin’s Force ghost, but the following should be taken with a grain of salt.

He says: “A front view of Anakin’s hybrid Force ghost. Half the face is Vader and the other half is Anakin Skywalker, with cracks in his face.

“A hood is over his head with Rey behind him.”

He added: “Rey hearing voices and breathing of Darth Vader and Anakin screams while looking at the figure with its back turned on her.

“Rey is holding a blue kyber crystal that is levitating over her hand.

“The Anakin figure vanish[es] and reappear[s] in another location in the Lost City, on top of a large structure guiding Rey to a dark place.”

Star Wars Episode IX will be released in UK cinemas on December 19, 2019.
