Jake never deserved the negativity pushed on him. He portrayed the role of Anakin Skywalker as best as he could, and he did a fantastic job. I wish 'fans' were nicer to him because I feel the treatment he received is the reason we don't see him at celebration and cons today. His enthusiasm and those nice memories of being on set probably burnt his feelings towards Star Wars, which saddens me. I was bullied for liking it Star Wars, I can't even imagine how Jake must have felt having starred in it. Either way, you are Anakin Skywalker, and that's something no one can take away from you!
Hope you enjoyed this behind the scenes look on the casting of Anakin Skywalker and everything that went into the process of finding Obi-Wan's apprentice. I still wonder what things would have been like, had Qui-Gon Jinn survived the fight with Maul.

Ikr! As my grandparents once told me, it is awesome to get something you like but it is even better from others hearing about your great news. So basically by Jake Lloyd getting bullied and humiliated by everyone, it goes to show that just because he becomes successful doesn't mean he will recover from this hatred. That is NOT right for a kid to get so hated and it is not nice at all! It makes him feel so bad and not happy to have others still be so cruel.

Jake LLoyd was a great Anakin in my opinion, and the poor kid went through so much for this movie. He said in an interview that, for a while, he literally had up to 60 interviews a day. He was like 10 at the time. People hate on his character too much because of him and not because of other aspects that he had no control over. As a fandom we need to stop personally attacking everyone, no matter how seemingly bad it is. The gatekeeping in the Fandom has become a huge problem and I feel that we all need to have a more active role in removing the toxicity from our community. Oh wow that turned in to a long rant, thanks for listening to my TedTalk lol : )

Even if Anakin had Zero lines in the movie, he would've been an epic Easter egg or Cameo. Audition wise, listen to him interact with Natalie Portman, unlike the others, he gives her something to latch on to and she responds with a giggle, instant onset chemistry. 3:11 You're just a lil boy......I won't always be.

I think Jake had that innocence to Anakin that would make the audience go "how could this become Darth Vader." Anakin wasn't that rebellious kid yet that had the darkness in him, he was with his mother and loved the people around him on Tatooine despite being a slave. He didn't know anything else from that life so he was kinda content with it. It's not until he's part of the Order that he learns there's more to life and at the same time he's also being stripped of what he knew, which causes that darkness and rebelliousness to rise.

It was Anakin tinkering with the toy in his hands while he was talking to Natalie that sold it for me. Anakin was an excellent mechanic, and him scrutinizing over the toy or whatever he was holding was so much like somebody who analyzes over builds and searches for improvements to be made, which Anakin excelled at. He was a smart and analytical kid, but he was also playful, which he portrayed in his "I won't always be" kid. Anakin did not know he was special or think he was special. The way he nonchalantly stated "all my life" portrays that humbleness. He was a real kid doing what he loved to do the most, and George saw it.

That poor boy didn't deserve a fraction of the hatred so many people directed at him. He was just doing his job with child-like authenticity, and I genuinely think he nailed what the character was supposed to be: a wide-eyed, innocent boy whose optimism hadn't yet been destroyed by the cruel galaxy. It was meant to contrast with Anakin's later descent into darkness, and adds to the tragedy and horror of his arc. Every time I see Vader, I think of that sweet boy he used to be, and I just feel... very melancholic. His story is outright depressing, both the character and Jake himself.

I can sort of see it. Also the reason may be because of him changing his diet and living in a new environment that caused him to change.

Yup....I got that feeling when looking at Jake at the set too - he's subtly precocious.

Man the 1st kid captures the dark side inside Anakin

@nathonalexavier1505 4 года назад

Think about how many kids auditioned for the role of Anakin in TPM and now 20 years later look back and thank god they didn’t get the part.

The kid they passed on had an intensity in his eyes. George went for cuteness over compelling

Jake Lloyd got to be in Star Wars and a movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger! Boy lives out my dream 😭

Something I like about Jake’s acting is the way he talks. He talks like a young boy with big dreams. It reminds me of the way my brother used to talk when he was younger.

YOU UNDERESTIMATE MY ACTORS

Unpopular opinion: I actually liked Anakin in the Phantom Menace.

@ThatneGuy-wi8od 4 года назад

People hating on actors because of their roles it THE most stupid thing a person could do. If you hate the characters or something take it out on the people who made them or scripted them. The actors simply do what they are told to do. Like with the actor for Rose in TLJ, I hate that movie and rose but I would never lash out at her since she only acted what others scripted for her character. I really hope Jake is doing well these days.

I agree, that third kid with the vest nailed it. Jake did an admirable job with the (mediocre at best) material he was given, but I somehow liked the other kid more.

@campbell4664 4 года назад

These kids don’t know how lucky they got for not getting casted, serious shame about the kid that did no one deserves that type of hate at that age, kid was just doing what he was told

Jake was the best option because he felt like a little innocent child but it would have been better if he wouldn’t have gotten the role because......ya know

@Live-qf2lg 4 года назад

We can all agree that was the role that as kids we were like "I could do that."

It's terribly sad to hear what has happened to Jake Lloyd. Poor guy. I hope he is doing well

@jarretthuffin 4 года назад

Jake did an AMAZING job. I really felt like there was no way this kid could become Vader! He nailed being a slave/ kid from a small town who knew nothing about the galaxy at all and had to learn on the fly. You can really see it in his acting that he still was that small boy from a desert planet who only wanted for the little things. For those who hated on him shame on you! I'd like to see you at 8 take on such a MASSIVE role.

Jake was perfect for the part well done 👏 best wishes from Ireland

@burneraccount2829 4 года назад

As good of a job that jake did that devin kid really deserved the anakin role just had that anakin vibe the good innocent but hidden darkness vibe of anakin that I won’t always been reminded me so much of Hayden
