Star Wars actor Hayden Christensen has said he's keen to return to the franchise.
Christensen made his big return to the dark side as Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader in Obi-Wan Kenobi last year, before reprising the role once again for this year's Ahsoka series.
While the actor currently doesn't have any additional Star Wars projects on the horizon, he has said that he "would love to do more".

"I would love to get to continue with Star Wars. We'll see," Christensen said while speaking on The Dagobah Dispatch podcast.
"I don't know what the future holds, but if such an opportunity presents itself, I'll be there with a big smile on my face.
"If it doesn't, I feel really grateful for getting to come back and do the work that I did, both in Obi-Wan and Ahsoka."
Speaking about his return as Vader last year, Christensen said he binge-watched as much Star Wars content as he could, to prepare for the role and re-familiarise himself with the character.

"I went back and rewatched all the films. And I also got into the animated shows, The Clone Wars and Rebels.
"It was interesting," he continued. "They did a lot with these characters in those shows. And they did further explore the relationship. There was interesting stuff there to learn about.
"It was great fun getting to go back and re-immerse yourself in this world that just continues to grow and become more and more vast."
Christensen also revealed that he had a "Vader movement specialist" on set, saying: "We wanted to make sure that we were staying true to how Vader moves and how we perceive him, and wanting to keep all that relatively consistent."
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and the entire Skywalker Saga are available on DVD, Blu-ray and 4K now, as well as on Disney+.
