Sure.....but he has some way cheesy linez still. He still makes it cool. Poor Hayden was cringe every time he opened his mouth, regardless of what he was saying Hayden has proven to be a very capable if not necessarily great actor. I wouldn't blame him for not being cool, id more blame them for casting an actor who is best at being broody to try and be a cool prodigy turned edge lord. The way the character was written he was oddly on point since at the end of the day Anakin straight sucks. Lucas has never improved at all. Natilie Portman had the charisma of a popped beach ball. McGregor had to use every ounce of his ability to do well in two of the three. Even freaking Christopher Lee at a time that was one of his better career streaks was flatter than Kansas. Blaming any of the actors for those movies is painfully off the path. I'm not sure I've seen anything else with Hayden. I just know he was really bad as Anakin. For me, episode 1 with Jake Lloyd as Anakin was much more enjoyable. It's sad to me that the two episodes (2,3) that could've the most powerful just fell flat.......I think a better casting Anakin would've gone a long way to improve those movies. Just my .02

Blaming any of the actors for those movies is painfully off the path. I agree. It ain't like Lucas can write. in the OG movies, Lucas had other directors and editors saving his ass. In the prequels he was a billionaire that self financed that nobody could say no to. In further defense of Hayden. He loves this s%#t. He love playing Anakin and Vader. He loves the new stuff he is doing. Loves working with Ewan Mcgregor. Loves the Obi Wan and Asoka Tano series. and being a part of the fandom. Mcgregor also loves playing Obi wan and produces the new show and was way into. There are a lot of actors that could give two s%#ts about being part of the culture and a big part of shows like star wars is the culture of it. it is going to the comic cons and and conventions and meeting fans and doing all that. And he does all that. Katee Sackoff, who plays Bo Katan in the Mandalorian shows is another one that is all in with the fan stuff. I will always give kudos to the real ones that put up with the literal unwashed masses that want to mob them at sweaty convention centers ready to quiz them on the minutiae of lore details.

Don't worry Smails. Tomorrow there will be plenty of things to talk about other than the Force.

I remember when I saw highlights of McCoy at the time he signed I was very encouraged. Glad he won the job.
