from an interview with Ryan Phillepe:
Is there any truth in the rumour that you were up for the role of Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars: Episode II?
I was, and I went and met with George Lucas, but I was too old because the character is supposed to be younger than Natalie Portman, and I'm six years older than her. I suppose it was impossible to make it work. But I got to spend some time with George Lucas and that was cool, and I've also talked about doing something in the third one, so you never know.
After seeing way of the gun, I hope he gets a bad guy role
