Notes:

During the course of 6 movies, the role of Darth Vader was taken on by several people. In the original trilogy that introduced in 1977, actor James Earl Jones was the voice for Vader while David Prowse performed the standard scenes and Bob Anderson performed Vader in fight scenes. Sebastian Shaw plays the role of the unmasked Vader and the departed but redeemed Darth Vader in his pioneer form, Anakin Skywalker. In the prequel series that released in 1999, the role of Anakin Skywalker was enacted by Jake Lloyd and Frankie Ryan Manriquez to show the young Anakin growing up. Later in the same series, Vader is played by Hayden Christensen for episodes two and three. George Lucas designed a bad guy so big it took seven actors to encompass Vader in all of his Dark Sided evilness.
