Vanishing on 7th Street - From Dr0id - oh no. They are using me as a stand in for temp reshooting. I def don't look like Hayden. 12:44 PM Feb 26th via web
March 1, 2010 - Inside the hottest swag suite of the Olympics - "I'm standing in swag epicentre of the 2010 Olympics, or, as it's also known--the Bay's "gift" suite located in the penthouse of the Loden, a luxe boutique hotel discretely off the downtown beaten track. The room is bright and airy, filled with neatly ordered racks of the Bay's official 2010 Olympic branded gear. The scarce red mittens that have become a cult item are piled in a wicker basket."
The popular Hudson's Bay Co. items drew a host of well known Canadians and visitors including....."the Gretzky family, Hayden Christensen, Rachel Bilson, Jon Hamm. The day before the big Canada-US men's hockey final, CNN is filming Canadian actress Emmanuelle Vaugier, best known for her recurring role on Two and a Half Men and Canadian actor Byron Lawson, of Snakes on a Plane fame."

February 25, 2010 - Hayden wearing Canada Goose - Hayden has been spotted all around Vancouver this past week wearing a warm and comfy looking fur trimmed parka. The red,white and blue patch on the sleeve identifies it as a coat with a long-standing Canadian history and a lot of tradition behind it. The Canada Goose company that manufactures the jacket has been around 64 years and is now finding that it represents style and comfort as much for everyday cold weather wear as it is a necessity for the those who regularly work out in the harshest arctic elements.
"But perhaps the most successful relationship for Canada Goose has been with film crews, who, according to Reiss, have put Canada Goose onto Hollywood radars. The company doesn't pay stars to wear its product, but plenty have chosen to on their own: Matt Damon, Hayden Christensen, Maggie Gyllenhaal and teen-idol Hilary Duff have all been photographed wearing the company's jackets in public. They've also shown up onscreen. Nicolas Cage wore a Canada Goose parka in National Treasure (2004), Jessica Alba appeared in one in Good Luck Chuck (2007) and, most recently, Kate Beckinsale donned one for most of Whiteout (2009)."

February 21, 2010 - US-Canada Hockey Draws Celebrity Fans - NHL spoke to Hayden about the big grudge match everyone in Vancouver was talking about today.
"While both Phelps and Blair were all smiles during a game that broke the Americans' way early and late, Canadian actor Hayden Christensen (the "Star Wars" prequels) was nervous due to the USA 3-2 lead going into the third period.
"Beyond nervous," said Christensen, dressed in a Canada home-white jersey and sporting a black-and-red-trim Team Canada while sitting in Section 117, Row 23. "It's been an amazing game but I don't like the score right now."
Christensen lives in Vancouver and said "it's incredible, such a treat for all of us to have the Olympics in our city." He is a Canucks fan, but also roots for NHLers Raffi Torres (Columbus) and the well-traveled Mike Zigomanis (right now playing for Toronto's top minor-league team).
"I played hockey with both of them growing up," said Christensen. "I dreamed about becoming a pro hockey player, just like most kids [in Canada]. I love the game." " NHL Vancouver

February 21, 2010 - Hayden Christensen at Club Bud NHL Party - If you stayed up late last night you got my tweets and posts about Hayden and Rachel appearing on the Club Bud red carpet and got to watch live streaming of the event. Brad Blanks had intended to talk to Hayden and Rachel. In a cute move, Rachel ducked and scooted behind Brad leaving him a little wide eyed and then it was on to talk to John Hamm and then Hayden.
The event was also sponsored by the NHL and we all know why Hayden would want to be there. The Stanley Cup trophy even made it inside the party. That had to be a must see for hardcore hockey fans. This afternoon Canada plays USA in the hockey preliminaries at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games. Do we even have to guess who Hayden is pulling for.

"With an all-star cast and Hollywood approach to storytelling, Quantum Quest seeks to draw in all those kids and adults who are fearful or uninterested in science or space exploration. On its surface, Quantum Quest is a sci-fi action film set in a scientifically accurate rendering of our solar system in 3D stereoscopic. Visually, the film blends computer animation with the fantastic images captured during recent NASA and NASA/ESA space explorations, including the international Cassini Huygens mission."
February 19, 2010 - Quantum Quest Teachers Science Center - The Education Resource Guide for Teachers is now online at the official Quantum Quest website. Quantum Quest: A Cassini Space Odyssey's biggest mission is to teach. The film combines the fun of a feature film starring actors like Chris Pine, Hayden Christensen and Abigail Breslin with a unique learning experience. The education sections of the site have expanded lesson plans and a resource guide for teachers and students grades 4th through 12th. Quantum Quest fully meets the educational guidelines for National and California standards for math and science. .
Though the animated 3D film is sure to be entertaining, each character represents unique elements of our solar system with important roles to play. Hayden Christensen voices the character Jammer, a solar wind surfing proton who helps Dave in his mission.

"Dave is assisted on his journey by solar surfing protons lead by JAMMER (Hayden Christensen), a solar neutrino RAYNA (Amanda Peet), Gal 2000 (Sandra Oh), Razor (Doug Jones), Admiral Halifax (James Earl Jones), and a photon who is searching for a free quark which he can't ever seem to find by the name
of MILTON (Robert Picardo)." Education Resource Guide for Teachers PDF
Here is an excerpt from Jammer's lesson having to do with magnetic fields around Saturn:
In the Film:
"As Dave and the proton surfers approach Saturn they are awed by its
magnetosphere. Jammer warns the others that the magnetosphere is really powerful.
He tells them not to get caught on the inside or they will get pulled into its dark side."

February 11, 2010 - Site Update - Rumored Movies - In October 2008, Hayden had been rumored in the cast of "The Fallen". According to The Fallen Movie on Facebook Paul Walker has been cast in the role of the firefighter struggling with drug addiction and a life of crime in the drama that looks to be going into production in spring or summer of 2010. The casting is technically unconfirmed as they are still in negotiations about the dates of filming but a poster and YouTube video has been put up with the cast announcement at the end. The video is a collection of clips from movies filmed in Boston like "The Departed" so be aware that they are mostly R rated with a lot of violence.

February 3, 2010 - New York I Love You with Hayden Christensen - Steal Your Heart Review - "New York I Love You" begins with a sweet and humorous encounter and stars Hayden Christensen, Rachel Bilson and Andy Garcia. The comic pace and a zippy romantic music score sets us up for fun from the start and you can't help but smile at the lightheartedness of the short story directed by Chinese director Jiang Wen.
"Steal Your Heart"
You have to think fast on your feet if you work the New York City streets as a pickpocket but Ben (Hayden Christensen) is about to find out how things can also come full circle when one life literally touches another as he lifts a stranger's wallet.
Later, a beautiful girl (Rachel Bilson) coming out of a photobooth catches his eye and he's instantly intrigued and follows her to a bar in Tribecca. Whatever his plan, things seems to go south as the girl's older boyfriend (Andy Garcia) joins them at the bar. When he is out-maneuvered by the girl's older and even more accomplished hustler boyfriend (Andy Garcia), Ben's love life is served a twist of fate he isn't expecting. Only in New York.
Hayden Christensen gives a charming turn as the thief with a one track mind who can't seem to get out of hustle mode even when seriously attracted to a pretty girl. Rachel Bilson as Molly plays it light but vulnerable as the mistress who wants more in a relationship than just an affair. Andy Garcia as Garry is perfectly smarmy and confident in his abilities to take control of any situation. New York, I Love You is out on DVD now.

January 27, 2010 - Star Wars Music Video - From Star Wars Twitter - Franz Ferdinand's "Take Me Out" - This video reminds me of Hayden's appearance on the Jay Leno Show in 2005 just after the premiere of Revenge of the Sith. Tracey Ullman asked Hayden, "Have you danced?" and when he said, "No, I can't say I have", she asked him what does your agent tell you to say. He said, "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, I can do anything".

January 27, 2010 - 'Star Wars' Saga Goes 3D - George Lucas has had his sights set on a 3D remake since before the release of the last film in the saga, Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, in 2005. Now it seems very possible that the original Star Wars trilogy and the prequels will be heading for a technical conversion due in large part to the success of Avatar and advances in the 3D process.
'Star Wars' films set for 'Avatar' style makeover - 'Star Wars Episode II' stars Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen could be on the big screen again in polished versions of the cult films. Lucas said that he had initially thought of the idea after finishing the last Star Wars film, 'The Revenge of the Sith', in 2005. But he was convinced about the idea after watching blockbuster 'Avatar', which picked up two Golden Globes last week. "We've been looking for years to do this but the technology hasn't been there. I think this will be a new impetus to make that happen," Lucas said.
'Avatar', which cost more than £300m to make, has shattered box-office records and is on the verge of taking £1 billion at the box office since its release. "I liked it. I make movies like that, so I can appreciate what James Cameron went through to do it. It worked well in 3D and I'm happy it's so successful," he added.
Lucas, 65, is planning to begin work on converting the 'Star Wars' films when he finishes [Red Tails] later this year. Since its release in 1977, 'Star Wars' has become a cult phenomenon, having grossed more than £2 billion pounds. Source
January 23, 2010 - Charity Efforts for Haiti - It's something that's been hard to ignore in the last week so I hope no one minds something off topic. I've added the links above to the Text Haiti Campaign from the Red Cross and a link to Partners in Health two organizations who were already in Haiti before the earthquake and need help. These are just suggestions and everyone should research the charity of their choice for themselves before they give to make sure they are legitimate and can get help to victims of this disaster as quickly as possible. I've added a link to Charity Navigator which gives you information on the financial health and efficiency ratings of different organizations responding in Haiti to help you make an informed decision and find a charity you feel you can trust. The links and banners will remain up on the main page throughout the weekend. Aid will be needed long after the last telethons and appeals for help have sounded.
January 20, 2010 - The Chase - Recently, I posted the first news about Hayden's rumored project called "The Chase". There is some confusion about two of John McTiernan's movies currently in development. "Run" and "The Chase", have similar story elements but it's being reported that "Run" has now been renamed "The Chase" even though they are two different movies from different studios.
"The Chase", from Arclight Films, is rumored to star Hayden Christensen in a story of a lamborghini test driver turned skilled getaway driver trying to escape his past and the corrupt cop who is out to get him.
"Run", from Pierce/Williams Entertainment, has a more international theme about an Interpol agent who uncovers a major conspiracy while pursuing a murder suspect in Argentina. Thomas Jane is rumored to star.
Both movies involve conspiracies, fast cars and elaborate car chase scenes. It looks like "The Chase" with Hayden Christensen (rumored) may be set to go before cameras first. If Hayden stars, it will bring one of his real life interests in fast cars and road rallies onto the big screen. Hayden did his own Lamborgini test drive on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Nevada in an exciting showdown on wheels with Dennis Rodman in 2005's Bullrun Rally.

January 10, 2010 - Toutlecine.com is reporting that Hayden may have been cast in Arclight Films' "The Chase" being directed by John McTiernan. Hayden would play a precision skilled getaway driver caught between a promise to his sister to stop breaking the law and the corrupt cop who is obsessed with luring him back into the game so he can put him behind bars.
[Google Translation]
"Anakin Skywalker / Darth Vader in the last three Star Wars Film date Hayden Christensen (photo) is currently driving lessons to the needs of The Chase.
Entrusted to the care of John McTiernan that once shone in the action ( Die Hard 1 and 3, Predator) The Chase based on an ace driver who used to pilot test the Lamborghini, enters a break. Which goes wrong and pushed the man to store cars, history also meet a promise to his little sister. But, as of course, his past catches up with him in the person of a cop bent on his destruction, and in its strings, a very lucrative job. Pilot course ...
Hayden Christensen is he through whom The Chase finally takes the road? Previously, when he headlined yet RunThe film has seen Karl Urban and Thomas Jane."
"Expat American getaway driver SCALPEL is the best in the business. A former test driver for Lamborghini, behind the wheel he can slice through the streets with surgical precision, a skill that's tested to the limit when he signs up for a heist that goes awry.
Barely escaping the law following an epic, tire melting pursuit, Scalpel promises his frantic kid sister SAMANTHA that he's retired, much to the chagrin of his arch nemesis, crooked cop RAY who's obsessed with taking him down.
When sexy, mysterious DAISY offers Scalpel a job taking her billionaire father for an illegal but highly lucrative joyride, Scalpel resists the temptation until Ray tries to get to him by terrorizing Samantha. Realizing the only way to escape Ray is to leave town forever, Scalpel accepts Daisy's offer. It's the only way to raise the stake to leave, even though he knows she isn't who she claims to be. In fact, Daisy is working for Ray and the job is a frame up, but running out of choices and time there's only one option left for Scalpel...
To square off with Ray for a showdown on wheels."
January 8, 2010 - New York, I Love You on DVD - New York, I Love You on Facebook announces the release of the movie on DVD next month.
January 7, 2010 - Vanishing on Seventh Street - Reading Twitter the other day, I came across a tweet saying the official movie site for Hayden's new film 'Vanishing on Seventh Street' would be ready to go soon. I wonder if the website will shed any more light on the movie that is already shrouded in mystery. Very little beyond the synopsis is known about the story and few production and news stills have come from the filming which took place in Detroit in October and November 2009.
Following a mysterious blackout where most of the population vanishes, five people will fight for survival as they discover shadowy figures are the cause of the disappearances.
I'm starting to think the actors (Hayden Christensen, Thandie Newton and John Leguizamo) actually vanished from the set before too many people even realized they were in town doing a movie. If nothing else, this shows that Brad Anderson is an efficient director but he is also a master of suspense and I have a feeling we will likely continue to be in suspense with trickles of information until the movie comes out later this year. You know, I kind of like it! Kind of....but the waiting is hard to do.

Find out which Taker you are by taking the quiz and if you get the answers just right you'll find Hayden waiting for you at the end of the game. Hayden plays A.J. (the builder) who is the crew's go to guy for finding the way into and out of tight situations. That makes him a smooth operator who loves the thrill of the heist more than the money itself.
Synopsis: "Directed by John Luessenhop, Takers revolves around a notorious group of criminals (Idris Elba, Paul Walker, T.I., Chris Brown, Hayden Christensen and Michael Ealy) who continue to baffle police by pulling off perfectly executed bank robberies. They are in and out like clockwork, leaving no evidence behind and laying low in between heists. But when they attempt to pull off one last job with more money at stake than ever before, the crew may find their plans interrupted by a hardened detective (Matt Dillon) who is hell-bent on solving the case."

I can't wait to go out there and move dirt and get my hands dirty."

'Star Wars' films set for 'Avatar' style makeover - 'Star Wars Episode II' stars Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen could be on the big screen again in polished versions of the cult films. Lucas said that he had initially thought of the idea after finishing the last Star Wars film, 'The Revenge of the Sith', in 2005. But he was convinced about the idea after watching blockbuster 'Avatar', which picked up two Golden Globes last week. "We've been looking for years to do this but the technology hasn't been there. I think this will be a new impetus to make that happen," Lucas said.
