British Star Wars fans will have the chance to see their new idol in the flesh next month when Hayden Christensen arrives in London for a two-month stint in Theatreland. The actor normally known as Anakin, will be starring alongside fellow Hollywood stars Anna Paquin and Jake Gyllenhaal in a play by Oscar-nominated director Kenneth Lonergan. According to Variety, This Is Our Youth will preview in the West End in late February for a two month run. Christensen and Gyllenhaal (who will be seen this year in the indie hit Donnie Darko) play a couple of rich kids who spend a weekend doing and stealing drugs.
