I always thought Ewan was the best at it. The way they talk about his duel with Maul, the fact that the actors were going so fast they had to slow down the footage on post for it to look “believable”, that’s impressive as fuck considering the choreography
The fact that Hayden didn’t even try to write anything at the lightsaber question and just laughed lmaooo he knows that from any actors who participate in any Star Wars project…only him and Ray Park are the best lmao
@@Cts_99 I was not aware of that. I'm going off bonus stuff from episode 1-3 DVDs where you actually see Ewan fighting with Ray and Hayden. Either way, that footage of him is incredible. He did the episode 1 fight himself I do know that
@@dozensnakethey're getting ready for Season 2 I'm guessing If they're late but the audience is engaging then it's safe to say the show made a positive impression on some
I love how entirely opposite Hayden is to the character of Anakin Skywalker. Anakin is cocky, impulsive and aggressive, while Hayden is himself is always so incredibly humble, calm and relaxed. I'm glad he's finally getting to enjoy this side of being an actor and getting the love he deserves from the fans.
@@Prince_the_One a stunt double did most of the fights & then they CGI’d Lee’s face into him, for the more crazy stuff at least. he was classically trained as a fencer though so he knew how he was just older
How about we retire Ahsoka and breath life into different stories for a change, like with Andor. Filioni has been extending his creative drought for far too long by recycling his characters in literally every project is affiliated in. He makes every project he's affiliated with feel like it's set in the confines of his head, where all the same characters reprise again and again as if the galaxy is a neighbourhood, instead of a living and breathing expansive world (literal galaxy) that star wars is meant to be
I think it’s good to not "beat a dead horse", so to speak… like, don’t make it too much of a good thing, don’t overdo it and make it irritating. I think it’s better if they just stick to miniseries, or shows with one or two seasons (like Boba Fett)… even if they made more short films (Tales of the Jedi) or singular films (Solo), they could tell so many more stories. For example, The Mandalorian is great but it does have a lot of episodes, and there was some crossover with Boba Fett, and now the Grogu Mando movie coming out. That story arc is apparently ending with the movie, and people were confused by that… I was like, why be confused? 🤔 If the story arc or "chapter" or whatever has ended on a finale, that’s good. We can move on to some more stories. The SW universe is insanely big and it would be cool if they could tell as many stories as possible, like from Legends and the extended universe, given the technological advancements of modern times. Plus I’m sure all the characters will continue making appearances throughout the franchise, such as Anakin’s appearances in Ahsoka, or Ahsoka in Mando, etc. Since Thrawn appeared recently in Ahsoka, maybe his story and the Chiss can be told in a more detailed way in the future…
the way Rosario allows Hayden the space just to relax is *chefs kiss* because they've known eachother for decades. Hayden's smile could launch a thousand ships istg.
I love Hayden so so much!! I hope he knows how much loved he is!! No one could've EVER played Anakin better than him, always said that right from the beginning!! Love you Hayden 💛
I actually thought that was what he was nominated for. Since he was still in the midst of the public calling his Anakin too much of a whiner, he took that sniveling little weasel attitude and applied it to a guy who was really a sniveling little weasel and played him perfectly.
His voice is distinctively lower now in his early 40s as compared to his early 20s. Our voices don’t changed that much after puberty unless lots of smoking and/or singing loudly has been done. It seems he took voice lessons.
It looks like Hayden loves Ewan as his older brother and Rosario as his childhood friend This and some replies are not exaggerations. One reply is very rude. And whoever like that are not good either
Absolutely perfect and matching with the star wars counterparts. Imagine seeing the three of them in live action for just one last time, all of them together goofing off, ewan rolling his eyes, ahsoka assisting anakin in some shenanigans
You're putting onto it what you want to see and not the reality (as people/fans always do). They know each other decently well but NO they where not these incredible childhood friends. Stop exaggerating thing and being this way.
I love them both as actors and they both seem so kind and humbled by their acting success. Hayden did an amazing job as Anakin, was mad he got slack for it…Rosario is just gorgeous! Wish them both continued happiness, and would love for Hayden to read an audiobook….that voice.
I keep finding I have that smile on my face while wathcing this interview. Just feel like I'm watching Ahsoka and Anakin sitting right there chatting every here and there.
A lot of people have no idea that Rosario was in Shattered Glass with Hayden. They didn't have any scenes together (in fact her role was very small) but yep, they were in a movie together. Excellent movie, while we're at it.
Man I knew all the Hayden ones except the hockey team 🤪. And Life As a House is one my favorite movies! His performance absolutely wrecked me in that film. The acting was so real and visceral, just gut-wrenching.
It's really heartwarming that the guy who plays Anakin/Vader didn't let his "dark side" win when people gave him crap when the prequels were first out. He is like a wise, calm older Jedi. Respect to him.
Hell it even matches the character too. After physical death, Anakin has taken over for the celestials and is a watcher of the force and the universe now. He could still have a huge role to play in guidance
I have a lot of complaints about the Disney era of Star Wars but episode 5 of Ahsoka with "Skyguy's" and "Snip's" epic reunion stands as one of my favorite Star Wars moments ever!
I was in the camp, even when the prequels were out, that I loved his performance. He was perfect as Anakin. Just think about how Luke Skywalker was - and you can see some of Luke and his whiny-ness in Hayden's portrayal as Anakin. And Rosario... is absolutely amazing. Have loved her for years. :)
Wowser.. Rosario is definitely up there as one of the most attractive actresses we've been blessed with in this world. I really hope Star Wars will skyrocket her into a bunch of movies and tv shows.
god know wonder her and hayden christensen did such an excellent job in ahsoka ep 5. they just have the perfect chemisty together when they do interviews like this.
I love Rosario from so many things and when the prequals came out I loved Hayden too! I worked at a movie theater and so many people put his work down but I saw how good he was cause he can act and he showed you what Anakin was feeling every moment and that is something truely special for an actor!
I had no idea that they had been friends before Ahsoka. How awesome! :) I love both of them in their roles and they are both so authentic, nice people. Cool. :)
All those hours Rosario spent training and her watching the animated series, paid off in the little movements that the character does when she takes a stance or begins a fighting stroke.
The fact they already have a friendship going on 29 years just means they were born to play Anakin/Ahsoka
29 😮😮 You didn't have to do math on me like that 😭
Agreed! I love their chemistry so much.
I always thought Ewan was the best at it. The way they talk about his duel with Maul, the fact that the actors were going so fast they had to slow down the footage on post for it to look “believable”, that’s impressive as fuck considering the choreography
They been friends longer than I been alive
the fact that's actually how long ahsoka's known anakin is also crazy
The fact that Hayden didn’t even try to write anything at the lightsaber question and just laughed lmaooo he knows that from any actors who participate in any Star Wars project…only him and Ray Park are the best lmao
Him, Ray and Ewan are the top 3. No one tops their choreography

I can believe they know each other since 1995 since they were kids this is so adorable interview
ikrrr! 😊😊
Disney, listen. Do the right thing. Give us more Ahsoka. Give us more Anakin.
All they've given us over the last 10 years is Ahsoka.... enough already. More Hayden though, although I don't know what that would look like.
But with better writing. They both deserve it.

They’re so lovely and the fact they’ve known each other since they were 14 and 16 is just so sweet ☺️
and the fact they’ve kept their friendship going shows they really are true friends

Abolutely stunning, gorgeous, beautiful, glowing. And Rosario aint bad either.
😂😂😂😂
😂😅🤣
LMFAOO 😂
their first impressions of each other is so adorable what
Their friendship is seriously everything 🥹
So glad these two can finally do press on Ahsoka
Why are they doing press now? Was it because of the strikes last year?
@@alex_jd exactly
@@alex_jdOHHHHHH
Dang. I was wondering why this was coming out when the show aired a while ago. I actually didn’t mind the show Ahsoka.
Rosario is the coolest and most modest nerd I've ever seen 😭
She's great and super likeable too!
I’ve met her at a party. She really is this kind. And I met Hayden on a plane. lol he really is like this 😅
Why doesn’t that happen to me - ( 😊Hayden crush)❤
I love Hayden so so much!! I hope he knows how much loved he is!! No one could've EVER played Anakin better than him, always said that right from the beginning!! Love you Hayden 💛
I’m sure his family show him a ton of love. That’s who matter to him.
Mejor.. Dicho imposible 🤗
The way he said "i got you" at 4:00... i honestly would have lost all self-respect right there and then lmao HE'S SO FINE
I’m enjoying this press run of Hayden and Rosario so much I watched every single interview
Hayden was not only great as Sam Monroe in Life As A House, he was fantastic as Stephen Glass in Shattered Glass.
I actually thought that was what he was nominated for. Since he was still in the midst of the public calling his Anakin too much of a whiner, he took that sniveling little weasel attitude and applied it to a guy who was really a sniveling little weasel and played him perfectly.
exactly!! he played stephen glass so incredibly well, he was sooo infuriating ahaha
They were both in Shattered Glass. Rosario is one of the reporters with Forbes who wants to run a story on Stephen Glass.
Thank you! Brilliant
"Takers" is one of my favorite roles of Hayden's. He crushed it in that film.
The novelty of Darth Vader rocking an AK-47... good memories.
And being part of a criminal gang - like an alternative Bratpack.
Hayden has an amazing voice, I could listen to him talk about anything.
His voice is distinctively lower now in his early 40s as compared to his early 20s. Our voices don’t changed that much after puberty unless lots of smoking and/or singing loudly has been done. It seems he took voice lessons.
Probably smoking
Hayden’s smile could move mountains!
Hayden baby, you're so loved! I'm always happy to see him🎉❤
Hayden knows his strength with the light saber. It’s an absolute pleasure every single time to watch him duel. He’s my favorite light saber wielder.
These two are perfect together, like their chemistry and everything is so nice to watch
It looks like Hayden loves Ewan as his older brother and Rosario as his childhood friend

I was thinking Pete Rose

You were GREAT in Daredevil Rosario! ❤
These two were absolutely great in shattered glass
They are truly snips and skyguy 🧡💙.
I still think Rosario was born to play the older, wise and live-action Ahsoka. She has done her homework and it shows.
I love Hayden’s maniacal laugh 😂 1:29
It’s so good to see them bonding so well , it looks like they are becoming quite close. But I guess they have been for about 30 years now!
