[Sunting] 2001–2005
Sementara Christensen's critically acclaimed portrayal of a misunderstood teenager in Life as a House (2001) earned him Golden Globe and SAG Award nominations as well as the National Board of Review's award for Breakthrough Performance of the Year, the performance didn't receive widespread public notice. For his part in the show, Christensen lost 25 pounds through a special diet. He eventually gained the weight back during the filming for a later film, Star Wars Episode III.
His role as Anakin Skywalker (who was previously played by Sebastian Shaw and Jake Lloyd) in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones (2002) made him a star. Although his performance was met with mixed reviews, he became very popular, being named in both People Magazine's 50 Most Beautiful People and Teen People Magazine's 25 Hottest Stars under 25.
He went on to receive good reviews for 2003's Shattered Glass, which tells the true story of journalist Stephen Glass, who was discovered fabricating stories as a writer for The New Republic, a national political magazine.
More favorable critical response came Christensen's way with the final Star Wars film Revenge of the Sith (2005), in which Anakin gradually converts to the dark side, finally transformed by the lies of Emperor Palpatine into Darth Vader. Christensen also reprised the role of Anakin Skywalker for the controversial 2004 DVD release of Return of the Jedi: Special Edition, where he replaced actor Sebastian Shaw as the Jedi spirit of Anakin Skywalker; Christensen insists that this was done without his knowledge.
