“We have a couple lightsabers kicking around the house,” Hayden shared. “She was my first lightsaber training partner when I came back to the Obi-Wan show.”

Hayden went on to say that while Briar Rose “knows Daddy’s Darth Vadar,” she’s “never seen Daddy as Darth Vader.” At least not yet.

“I’m still waiting a little bit, you know, until that happens,” Hayden explained. “I might show her the prequels soon…But still, there’s some scenes we might have to fast forward through.”

Hayden shares Briar Rose with ex Rachel Bilson.
