Famous actors are always having strange and crazy interactions with fans. Sometimes it can get pretty serious and dangerous, and other times it can be weird and comedic. One story that was shared by actor Hayden Christensen definitely fits into the weird category.
While speaking on a panel during L.A. Comic Con before Halloween, the Star Wars actor shared details about a time when someone tried to rob his home. While he was busy on a phone call at the time, he heard someone just enter his home and go to his upstairs rooms.
“I’m like, is this a delivery guy? And I look and I’m like, this is all my stuff.” Immediately after spotting the intruder, the supposed thief began to apologize after realizing whose house he was in. The man was attempting to steal multiple items from the home, but was shocked that he was in Anakin Skywalker’s house.
Things could have taken a bad turn, but Hayden Christensen was able to talk to the man, who explained he fell on very hard times. His goal of breaking into the house was to find some money to get a train ticket back to his own home. He claimed he wasn’t able to find work because he didn’t own decent clothes to wear, and was struggling with everything.
Instead of calling the police, Hayden gave the man new clothes and some shoes, and offered to drive him to the train station the next day. However, the man never came back the next morning. For Hayden, it was a serious situation ended with a calm conclusion where nobody was hurt.
The Star Wars actor wrapped the story up for the audience in a fun, yet simple way. “Please don’t try to burglarize my house again. I’ve got great security cameras.”
