He treated this youngling a lot better than the others.

You can just tell Hayden is an incredible Dad

Massive respect to the kid for knowing who Darth Revan is that warmed my heart

People try to say Hayden didn't do a good job at Anakin, but I was SO affected by his performance in Revenge of the Sith - its still one of my most re-watched movies of all time. Long live this legend. Also, what a chilled out dad type figure he's become! I love it.

This is serving big “if Anakin was allowed to raise his kids and didn’t go to the dark side” vibes and now I’m crying

Andrew, Tobey and Hayden getting their roles back recently is a W in the film industry

"Sometimes Jedi can be a little clumsy..." "But you're a Sith now!!" Bro really came prepared

the fact that a purple light saber made him think of revan other than mace means he is a true star wars fan

This kid could have easily said Mace Windu when talking about a purple lightsaber but instead, he mentioned Revan. A true Star Wars fan.

When the kid said "I could do better than this," Hayden's chuckle expressed everything he still has against younglings💀

I love that he goes "I dunno, I'm pretty good at lego" Then proceeds to put the wing on backwards first haha dude idk why people hated him in the prequels, I've never had a problem and seeing all this love recently is super heartwarming, Hayden deserves the love after so many years of being memed on

What an adorable kid. I love how Hayden handled him so well. He still has such a Wonderful smile.

I don't even care that he built the wings backwards, this is a really heartwarming interview.

You can tell when someone's a kid person and Hayden clearly is. He did great with that kid.

Kid invoked Revan AND called out Revan's lightsaber colors? Major props.

Seeing Hayden usually calm and chill with adults, and then becoming this sweetheart angel all laughs and smiles with this little kid, melt my heart. I have a crush on him since Attack of the clone came out and now I know I will never get over it.

"I'm pretty good at lego" he says before immediately attaching the wings backwards. :D That interview was so cute. I had a smile on my face the whole time.

I like that neither of them caught that wings were backwards 😂

The way the kid's face is lit up the entire time is so heartwarming. Hayden is not only amazing for his role as Anakin/Darth Vadar, but he is also just amazing with talking with children. I can tell Hayden has a very positive aura. Love him.

Seeing Hayden smile like this is soup for the soul

This kid is better than 99% of adult junket interviewers I’ve ever seen. Such charisma. Delivers the most witty remarks without stumbling over his words.

Hayden seems like such a down to earth guy. Glad he’s getting a second chance to the public, I’ve always been a big fan of him

The kid casually referenced Darth Revan, this is a very advanced Star Wars fan for his age.

This youngling managed to survive 😅 He's no Jedi 😅😅

This interview gave me so much seretonin! Hayden seem so happy and it’s nice to see different questions

Hayden answering that he would rather fly a star fighter really connects him to his roots with Anakin.

This is the most confident kid I have ever seen in my life. He even makes Hayden nervous. Give him ten years and cast him as our next big bad villain.

This kid is better at this job then a lot of adult's I've seen, love it.

The best part is Hayden's not talking to Inati like he's just a kid, He's actually talking in his genuine voice and treating Inati like a regular interviewer

Hayden Christensen is a treasure. I'm so happy that he's got the comeback and redemption of a lifetime. First Andrew and Toby now Hayden.

I love Hayden’s laugh! Such a heartwarming video!

This is one of the sweetest things I've seen in a while. Hayden's interaction with this kid is so wholesome!❤

Top 3 hayden interviews so far lmao. Most of the interviewers ask him and ewan the same questions over and over. This was great

I just love how Hayden is just slowly seducing this kid to the dark side. He’s just like, “You know I think the red lightsaber is the best. It fits the outfit very well.”

His smile and laugh makes me so happy

Hayden seems like the most humble and friendly dude in every given room he walks into. This man deserves the world! Here after Ahsoka episode 5 ❤

Hayden is enjoying the interview more than the interviewer

He’s so kind to his fans, nice to see him getting the love he deserves and has always deserved

Respect to the kid for not correcting Hayden as he put on the X-Wing wings backwards. He just left him in his own little world.

Hayden didn't deserve the backlash he got at all. I think he did great. I honestly couldn't imagine anyone else playing Anakin live-action.

The fact this kid straight up dropped "if you could have a second lighsaber like Darth Revan" just shows you how amazing this series is and why kids should be doing interviews for the movies and shows before they release, no one is more excited than the kids man.

This kid gives better interviews than %90 of the interviewers out there.

I´m so happy he finally got the recognition and respect he deserves, especially after so many years of hate. His laugh is so lovely, I cant help but smile

The fact Hayden put the wings on with the cannons facing backward, and it passes the young sith's careful examination, just makes this video all the more adorable.

"You get red and purple, like Darth Revan" This kid has my immediate and entire respect, dear GOD I love that he knows Revan

That kid is so articulate, mature for his age and funny. He should definitely do more interviews

Hayden Christensen is such a cool man. I love older Hayden, he is so damn soft spoken and chill. He makes me love him all over again. This is an incredibly wholesome and wonderful interview.

Why did I wanna cry watching this?? ❤ Hayden is just another human being from another world, he’s so amazing! The little kid is so adorable I love this! 🥺

I feel like a proud mom. Nobody deserves a second chance more than Hayden. I really hope the fandom is appreciating his efforts a little more this time around. Fingers crossed

It's actually great to see Hayden getting another shot at this. I think over the years fans grew to appreciate his performance more and his current portrayal of Vaders' mannerisms and intimidating presence has been spot on.

This kid is the epitome of “we will watch your career with great interest.”.

4:27 "You get two good lightsabers--say, red and purple--like Darth Revan." Damn, this kid really knows Star Wars, even the Old Republic era! 😮

this kid is gonna grow up to be a comedian

Jeez, just seeing him talk normally has me down horrendous still. It's been 7 years now, Anakin will always be my favorite character ever.

So wholesome and so sweet his daughter is lucky he's an amazing father

Hayden is a class act all the way. Wish more celebrities were like this. With great power comes great responsibility, and he wields it with such warmth and grace.

Man, Hayden must be very humble. That kid made fun of him a lot, and he just took it. 😆 I was just waiting for one of them to notice the XWing had its cannons backwards.

Everything about this interview is so adorable & 12/10!!! 💓 The way the smol asks questions & handles the props, the way Hayden treats him with respect but still gingerly as he is a kid, & how Hayden is still handsome & his laugh OMGG

"the bloopers of the prequels films are mainly of you just falling over"- God I am proud of this kid

The most at ease and calm he's been in an interview for Kenobi. It's been a while since he's been this much under the spotlight and you can usually see he's a little anxious during interviews, even when Ewan is with him. He's so happy and effortless here, this is a very good concept for an interview and it was very sweet :)

“I’m pretty good at building Lego.” Puts wings on back to front. Great interview. Love that Hayden is back in Star Wars.

This child is adorable. This whole thing is incredible adorable.

Kudos to the kid for doing such a great interview and interacting with Hayden - and kudos to Hayden to being such a real, respectful and warm person.

This kid knows Darth Revan. He knows more about Star Wars than any actual interviewer I've seen on this press circuit.

I fucking love that Hayden is finally getting the very much deserved love from the public, I hope that deep down he's enjoying this as much as I am by just seeing all of it

i couldn't help but smile watching this interview, it was so heartwarming, hayden is such a great and precious person and the kid was so cute and made very interesting questions! this interview definitely made my day

Hayden: *speaks with elegance while building the X-Wing wrong* Me: *nerding in love while internally screaming* Little Vader: *mentioning Revan* Me: *« WHAAAAT YEEEAH MY BOY »*

Hayden casually putting the wings of that x wing on backwards and neither of them catching it is the biggest gem the world has to offer

I love how he took the interview seriously and still let the kid have fun, sweet guy!

Hayden seems like a chill dude

To see Hayden Christensen embraced and loved again by the Star Wars community is very heartwarming for me. I didn’t care for him in Episode 2 but in Episode 3 I thought he was great. And I always felt very bad for him because he is a good actor

Idk where he went after rots, but Hayden feels extremely at home back in this role and he just seems to be soaking up the fandom with appreciation, he seems great with kids , very genuine

So happy for Hayden and glad that he came back. I enjoy his films and it's nice to see him being a genuine dude outside of filming. Very humbling.

Yep, I'm still in love with Hayden after 20 years. Even more so now after this interview.❤

the smile on hayden's face as he walks in is precious!

I like when they do the "Force off" Hayden immidiately goes for the Force Choke 😂

Hayden is such a sweetheart I’ll never get over it 😭

God dayum, his voice is so gorgeous now

Not gonna lie, this interview hit me in the feels. It's cool they do this with kids.

I love that Hayden is totally aware that a sweet little boy is interviewing him and he's just having a good time :-)

Someone protect Hayden, he really is the chosen one

Just a good man. This was the best interview I've seen from any of the cast.

Shout-out to Hayden who played along the entire time and actually was a good sport to this interviewer. Also, this kid

He's so much Vader that he's even "subconsciously" mounting the wings backwards to disrespect the Rebellion irl haha :D

"I dunno, I'm pretty good at legos" *proceeds to sabotage the x-wing

Hayden has such a good voice

Loved how the kid definitely knew that Hayden put the wings on backwards, but didn't say anything just to avoid hurting his feelings😂

Hayden is just TOO sweet for words! He's so great with kids!

This was so heart warming, love Hayden

That was so touching! I love you Hayden Christensen thank you for not giving up as Anakin Skywalker, you did perfect looking back, it gave us time to appreciate the prequels

The fact that this kid knows who Revan is brings warmth to my heart.

It’s difficult to maintain that level of humility over nine minutes when you’ve got a precocious kid razzing you. Very kind of him. And I love how his voice has gotten naturally deeper. Can’t wait to see how the series plays out.

My ovaries...they have been snatched by Vader's force. 😍🥰 This was beyond ADORABLE! ❤️💙

The "force off" bit is canon proof Anakin really turned back to the light side, because Vader would've absolutely torched that kid in an instant.

This kid is better at interviewing celebrities than most professionals. So natural. Many interviews feel awkward with a feeling of separation between the interviewer and the interviewee, but I didn't feel this at all here. I think children are naturally less afraid in these situations as they haven't reached that anxiety inducing self-awareness we develop as adults. As an adult you constantly ask yourself if you're doing a good job, you fear you might flub on camera, or fear you might ask something that could come off as offensive. Adults go into these situations with anxious anticipation in general. We've all seen when interviews go wrong. I bet his parents are very proud of him. He's got a terrific quick wit about him too.

Hayden's probably like, "who tf is Darth Revan?" But this absolutely the cutest thing ever, Hayden's amazing.

Let's face it, Hayden always was the best actor we have seen in the Star-Wars movies made. At least for his own role, the man IS Anakin. He went into the role 120%. Also, you can really tell how good a job he did, when he gets more impressive every time you watch the prequels.

this is so wholesome, this is actually good marketing, but it's all thanks to the kid being actually a really great interviewer!

It's so heart-warming to see Hayden being so much fun and showing such great humility and ease while handling this "cheeky" young Sith wannabe; a very skilled and cunningly good parent by reminding Inati to first introduce himself (here you know that Christensen is a natural socializer) and how naturally he throws himself to the ground during their Force-off showing what a cool and fun dad he must be at home. Totally amazing guy!

This man is just too wholesome!!! So glad he's returned!!!
