Jake Lloyd
Remember that cute blond boy who played young Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace (1999)? That actor’s name is Jake Lloyd. Though this wasn’t his first time onscreen, his role in the epic space opera is his iconic role. He starred in the TV series ER (1996) and The Pretender (1996-1999).
Unfortunately for Lloyd, the international fame and spotlight he garnered starring in Star Wars was overwhelming for the 10-year-old. He stopped acting in 2012 and was arrested for reckless driving and initiating a high-speed police chase in 2015. He was transferred to a psychiatric facility from jail the same year. His mother also revealed that her son has schizophrenia. Now, his career and whereabouts are a mystery.
