Not every Star Wars actor gets to work with Kenneth Branagh or Disney these days, but you've gotta feel at least a little sorry for Hayden Christensen, whose post-Star Wars career has been utterly mediocre at best, with his last theatrically-released movie being 2010's Takers.

Christensen next teams up with straight-to-VOD schlock master Steven C. Miller (whose last two movies scored less than 10% on Rotten Tomatoes), playing a father whose son is kidnapped, and he has to team up with a police chief (Bruce Willis) to get him back.

The expected VOD release probably won't do much for Christensen's career, but fingers crossed that he manages to at least do something memorable with the role. Honestly, he deserves better if you can overlook the poorly-written Anakin role and remember his sublime work in 2003's Shattered Glass.
