Child actor who portrayed Anakin recalls being teased

Poor Jake Lloyd. Remember him? He was the child actor who played the young Anakin Skywalker in The Phantom Menace. He's all grown up now and recently spoke about how it affected his life. Let's just say high school was tough.

 

 

I wonder if he had a stuffed Jabba the Hutt or jawa toy like these when he was little. I doubt it. These days, he'd probably be more interested in seeing a co-ed stuffed into one of these nifty 202 Star Wars t-shirts.

In the interview, Lloyd says he's studying film. I wonder if he'll ever do anything fannish, like this Star Wars-inspired flick called '77 which sounds more fanboy than Fanboys. Although the idea of recreating the original movie 15 seconds at a time via fan films online probably tops both.

Speaking of fanboys, who else would pay money to see Star Wars music performed live? Some lucky folks in the U.S. will be able to attend Star Wars In Concert as it tours the country.
