Why Does General Skywalker look like Hayden Christensen?

maybe capital game don’t have hayden portrait right because he left starwars ages ago so they couldn’t put his face on jka

but now... ep9 coming...

purely speculation

Hmm, looks a little bit like the young David Hasselhoff. Very sweet!

Jedi Knight Anakin is the cartoon version of Anakin as evidenced by his synergy with Ahsoka. We don't have a movie Anakin yet unless you count Vader.

wouldnt general skywalker be now considered the clone wars one (hopefully he gets the twilight ship) and the Jedi knight anakin we currently have would be the episode 3 anakin?
or maybe this is just the "season 7" anakin?

like to me general skywalker i never think of the ep 3 anakin i think of him in the clone wars as thats what he was always called during it. meanwhile in ep 3 i dont recall him being called that meaning it would be a weirder name for that version of anakin if im remembering the movie right.

Not at all. We could go this whole game's lifespan, get 30 Anakins and not have a one of them be a movie Anakin. Just because there's multiple doesn't mean one has to be the movie version.

I am excited to try this character out, but from a lore standpoint, the waters have gotten a little muddy. Since the event is having him face-off against Ventress(A character we don't see in any of the films), I assume it's at least partially related to TCW cartoon. I feel like JKA is now more close to Episode 3 Anakin; his attire looks like the robes he wore when fighting Kenobi on Mustafar, while this new Anakin very much looks like the cartoon. As far as the new toon looking like Hayden; all of the likenesses of Anakin pre Darth Vader and post little Ani are meant to be of Hayden even the cartoon.

Darn, I was hyped to unlock this guy, but I think I'll pass now.

The event takes inspiration from clone wars episodes.. This is the cartoon character and JKA is the film version

On a similar topic, I've noticed that Han Solo looks a lot like Harrison Ford.... weird huh?

Because General Skywalker is Anakin Skywalker. In canon he looks like Hayden.

The clone wars version Of Anakin looks a lot more like his voice actor (Matt Lanter) than Hayden. Good to actually have a movie likeness, IMO.

Because it's how he is supposed look, since the cartoon was based on Hayden Christensen's likeness, not otherwise.

In Battlefront 2 he also have the General Skywalker skin, but still looks like Hayden. Simple math.

There's no need to get math involved.

It's simple y = a(x - x)² + y

Hayden = Anakin(JKA - GA)² + y

Solve for Y

Y you ask? Because we know Padmé is anakin's X

Actually no. Padme died before a divorce could take place, so technically Anakin is a widower.
