I’ve recently been made aware that a lot of younger Star Wars fans (understandably) aren’t aware that Sebastian Shaw was the original ghost of Anakin, and that Hayden was edited onto Sebastian’s body in 2004. So this is for those who might not know!

For added context: I posted a meme on another Star Wars sub that included both the young and old ghosts of Anakin. A surprising amount of comments were questions regarding the source of old ghost Anakin.

At least Sebastian Shaw is still in the film, if only as the dying old Anakin in the suit.

I love Sebastian Shaw’s smile here. I wish they had allowed Hayden to act the scene instead of using archive footage that doesn’t even really look in the right direction.
