Upon arriving the Press Conference for the film, the handsome actor told Fans-in-waiting that he’d come out to greet them after. He could also be seen slowly nursing a Tall-sized Coffee from Starbucks during breaks and finally came out after finishing work to take a generous round of photos and do autographs for everybody. Although I did get an invite to his party Saturday at Ultra Supper Club, I had other engagements so it was wonderful meeting him today. Credit for story and pictures by: Mr. Will-W

Hayden and Tove Christensen light up TIFF with new flick, Vanishing on 7th Street.
Moet and Belvedere vodka were flowing and the music was pumping as party goers mingled and sipped on bevies in celebration of Hayden’s new thriller flick, Vanishing on 7th Street. Hayden and his brother Tove also served as producers on the film with their production company Forest Park Pictures — clearly talent runs in the fam. Clad in grey denim, combat boots, a blue and black plaid flannel shirt and a plaid scarf, we rubbed shoulders with Hayden in the VIP section as he casually chatted with friends and chilled with Tove.


When Hayden, who partied until 4 am, requested Toronto’s hip-hop king K-OS (where has he been hiding, anyway?!) to take a spin as DJ.

Vanishing on 7th Street Premiere Article

Verifiably real at the TIFF hot spot was Hayden Christensen, who calmly socialized in the lounge, and his Vanishing co-star Thandie Newton, who looked like a million in a loose magenta top and matching sequined skirt. Ladies at the party were swooning over the newly single Christensen, who built his dream home in Uxbridge with his now ex-fiancée Rachel Bilson. “He looks like James Dean!” a woman in her mid-40s gushed as she watched Christensen smoking outside. Great—now we have a James Dean imposter! Source

Hayden Christensen causes K-Os!!!…to spin at Ultra

Posted by admin with 1 Comment

Hayden Christensen used the force (of his celebrity) to give Ultra’s DJ a break at his party on Saturday night. At the 29-year-old Thornhill-raised actor’s request, Toronto hip-hop artist K-Os commandeered the turntables until the actor made an early exit around 1 a.m.

With a cardboard cut-out of Darth Vader looming in the window of the Adidas store across the street, the real(-ish) Anakin Skywalker and his 37-year-old brother Tove hoisted Belvedere vodka bottles at a party for their production company, Forest Park Pictures.

The Brothers Christensen hung out in a roped-off VIP section with Thandie Newton, Hayden’s co-star in his TIFF flick Vanishing on Seventh Street, and The King’s Speech co-star Geoffrey Rush. Source

NASA Footage Sets Scene for Quantum Quest Movie

Footage from seven ongoing NASA space missions provide hyper-realistic scenery for 3-D animated film Quantum Quest: A Cassini Space Odyssey, which debuts Saturday at the DragonCon sci-fi convention in Atlanta.

For added star power, Quantum producer Harry Kloor wrangled William Shatner, Chris Pine, Mark Hamill, Samuel L. Jackson, James Earl Jones and Hayden Christensen for the voice cast.

Following Saturday’s 8:30 p.m. DragonCon screening in the Atlanta Marriott Marquis’ Atrium Ballroom, Kloor will appear with Tom Kenny (SpongeBob SquarePants) and others at the “Captain Kirks vs. Darth Vaders: The Inside Stories Behind the Making of Quantum Quest” panel.

Quantum Quest: A Cassini Space Odyssey, written and co-directed by Kloor, is slated for release in large-format 3-D theaters in late 2010. Source

Takers Box Office

Posted by admin with 4 Comments

So far it looks like Takers will come in at #2, but it’s really close. We won’t know for sure until tomorrow.

From Entertainment Weekly: This one may not be decided until tomorrow as the top two films are only separated by a meager $300,000. It’s interesting that for a weekend that wasn’t generating much attention from Hollywood, both new releases have now grossed over $20 million, creating a real horse race.

After sitting on the shelf for almost a year, the ensemble crime-drama Takers (Sony/Screen Gems), starring Paul Walker, Idris Elba, rapper T.I., Chris Brown, Zoe Saldana, Hayden Christensen and Matt Dillon, exploded out of the gate with its own $21 million in 2,206 theaters, an impressive per-theater average of $9500 per site.

If you haven’t seen it yet, be sure to see it, support Hayden and let’s make Takers #1! :)

How Hayden Christensen’s ‘Takers’ Character Is Like Darth Vader

Posted by admin with 1 Comment

From Vibe.Com – That’s until he uses the fight ‘force’ and opens a can of whup ass in one of the film’s most exciting fight scenes. “It was mostly me,” Christensen says of the sequence that required very little stunt help, “I had to make sure I was in decent shape so I didn’t get beat up too badly.”

Having had lots of movie fighting experience from the latter two Star Wars prequels, 29-year old actor says he was accustomed to the physical grind highs and lows shooting those scenes require. “It was a well-choreographed sequence and it was very safe. But we spent a day roughing each other up and I got to give it to him,” he laughs of the other actor in the scene.

And Christensen says once he got a hold of the Takers script, being apart of the summer action thriller was a no-brainer, because the film’s subject matter took him back to his earliest childhood dreams.

“To get the chance to make a proper action movie with big explosions?” the Canadian-born actor says. “Running around, playing cops and robbers and shooting a gun? It was totally to indulge the kid in me.”

TIFF 2010: Images And Interview Footage For Brad Anderson’s VANISHING ON 7TH STREET
One of two alumni returning to the Midnight Madness section of the Toronto International Film Festival, Brad Anderson returns with Vanishing On 7th Street. Once again embracing genre conventions while also turning them on their head, Anderson promises another high concept thriller with this one and for a taste has released a good sized gallery of stills as well as a lengthy EPK reel with the stars talking about the process and appeal of making the film. And it’s gotta be said: Hayden Christensen takes a lot of heat thanks to his lazy drawl of a voice but the guy is both smart and articulate when he talks about his work. Check it out below. Source

Reeve Siblings: Thrilled to Have Hayden Christensen’s Support

Posted by admin with 2 Comments

From: NBC New York – The children of the late legendary actor Christopher Reeve gathered at The Standard’s Boom Boom Room last night for a posh summer fundraising event along with good pal Hayden Christensen.

“Hayden is a good friend, so him being here is really spectacular,” Alexandra Reeve Givens, daughter of Christopher, told Niteside at the Reeve Foundation event.


“He’s actually always been very supportive and he agreed to come. He’s followed what we’ve been doing for a long time. He wanted to just lend his name to the cause. “

Christensen’s appearance at the charity event, which supported the leading organization for people living with paralysis, speaks to his character, Matthew Reeve, son of Christopher, said: “He’s been incredibly generous with his time. I mean I’ve known him for eight years, and I just asked a good friend for a favor.”
