Will Anakin Skywalker be in one of the new Star Wars movies?

On December 18th, Star Wars episode VII will premiere in theaters. There is a rumor going around that Hayden Christensen who played Anakin Skywalker in the prequels might actually end up reprising his roll as Anakin Skywalker.

People have not been saying that he will return in episode VII, but he could end up in the untitled 2017 movie, episode VIII.

Anakin Skywalker may have died in the 1983 movie episode VI Return of the Jedi, but it is a possibility that he could be resurrected. His Darth Vader helmet did appear in the teaser trailer for episode VII. 

People have been saying that the villain for episode VII, Kylo Ren, appears to be after Luke's first lightsaber, which was originally Anakin's. Putting those two together, seeing Darth Vader's helmet, and saying that Kylo Ren is after Anakin's lightsaber slightly says that he could end up in one of the new movies.

Even if he does get resurrected, it doesn't mean that he will immediately be evil. He died as Anakin Skywalker, not as Darth Vader. He died to save Luke so that he could redeem him self. Nobody know's for sure what is going to happen, but it is something fun to think about.
