Hayden Christensen is becoming the it boy of the summer. Even so, Christensen’s “it” factor may not be a temporary thing. His long line of experience dates back to his childhood showing that he has been in the acting game long before his days of dueling light sabres.
On April 19, 1981, Hayden Christiansen was born in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada to David and Alie Christensen. Later on, his parents and his brother and two sisters moved to Toronto, where he spent the majority of his life.With a thriving communications business in the family name, Christensen set against the kindred business and caught the acting bug at the early age of 8 when he was cast in a Pringles commercial.
