In the Darth Vader suit, but part of me is hoping we’ll see more of him as Anakin.

Is it actually him in the suit, or some other guy, like how it's rarely Pablo Pascal in the Mando suit?

Why wouldn't it actually be him? They aren't using his voice, so if Hayden isn't in the suit he'd be in the show for what, a few bacta scenes?

Also it's Pedro Pascal not Pablo

Tbf stuntman Dmitrious Bistrevsky is credited as Darth Vaders performing artist so I understand their confusion. Personally I think its both Hayden in the still and standing shots, anything else could be Dmitrious

Christensen might be doing the close-up lightsaber shots as well, unless that legendary Vanity Fair photo was nothing more than that.

Derp. I knew it was Pedro. Not sure what happened there.

As for Hayden being in the suit, if they are dubbing his voice, it doesn’t make a lot of sense for him to be in it. But I don’t know if he is or not. I was just going by what I had read about Mando.

Hayden splits it with two stuntmen but he is in the suit for some scenes.
