The wave of superhero flicks has inspired a slew of sci-fi films that'll be hitting theaters in 07 and 08. One of which is from an actor who represented the coolest villain in sci-fi history as Darth Vader. In his new film, Hayden Christensen will be playing "A teenager from an abusive household [who] discovers he can teleport from one place to another. He uses this ability to search for the man he believes is responsible for the death of his mother, drawing the attention of the NSA, and another kid with the same power." Despite the fact that he's still playing teenagers at the age of 25, he does have a hefty load of films that he'll be dispersing within the next year.
There's the romantic adventure period piece Guilty Pleasures with Mischa Barton...
the romantic/dramatic thriller Awake with Jessica Alba...
the biopic Factory Girl with Sienna Miller...
and although one of his prospects for next year, a crime drama called Poker Nights, has been canceled, he will be starring in the action/adventure Crash Bandits with Amber Valleta (Hitch). The story: "A treasure hunter specializing in downed aircrafts finds himself chasing his arch nemesis, who is holding his fiesty ex-wife hostage, towards a critically missing treasure clue aboard a downed plane deep in the jungle." Sounds like Christensen gearing up to be the next Harrison Ford.
