McGregor is “the coolest person on the planet” and a “great” actor, said actor Hayden Christensen (43). He is also incredibly nice, but he played him badly on screen, joked the guest speaker. In the “Star Wars” empire, McGregor played the character Obi-Wan Kenobi in a Jedi robe, while Christensen played the student Anakin Skywalker, who becomes the villain Darth Vader.
In his acceptance speech, McGregor emphasised his love of film and his family. He considered himself very lucky to have played a father-daughter duo with his daughter Clara (28) in the film drama “Bleeding Love”. Daughter Esther (22) is currently filming in Canada and unfortunately cannot be there, said the father of five. Addressing his 13-year-old daughter Anouk, McGregor explained that she is still too young to be an actress. He will probably not make a film with daughter Jamyan because the 22-year-old is aiming for a career as a detective. Finally, he turned to his youngest child, son Laurie, to ask if he would like to say hello to everyone here.
McGregor and Winstead met in 2016 on the set of the series “Fargo,” in which they played a crook couple. After that, both separated from their previous spouses and officially became a couple.
In front of photographers, everyone knelt on the newly unveiled star plaque and beamed into the cameras in the presence of cheering fans. This was a great honor for him, said McGregor. Even as a young boy, he had wanted to be an actor and work creatively.
He is also happy that his plaque is very close to Carrie Fisher’s. The “Star Wars” icon, who died in 2016, received a posthumous star on the “Walk of Fame” last year. Also nearby is Mark Hamill’s star, who played the Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker in “Star Wars”.
