"Anakin Skywalker" Swears off Star Wars for good!

[Ted Ramasola]

"The “Star Wars” series has been an immense career boost for most of its stars, however, for Jake Lloyd, who played Anakin Skywalker in “Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace,” it’s been nothing but a nightmare. So much so, in fact, that he left acting forever. " -from the article, link below.

I like Jar Jar Binks...

I think school was hard for 80% of 10 yearolds but there you go.

Actually, he talks about that very issue in the video. Sounds like he hasn't made that kind of money off the role, which isn't at all surprising. Not like he got a cut off the gross or anything....

You know, I do feel sorry for Jake Lloyd. It's not his fault the movie sucked, or that the character sucked... and, quite frankly, he was a better actor at 10 then his replacement at any age.
