Lucas fighting Hair Wars

Lucas fighting Hair Wars

George Lucas may now have all the technology at his fingertips that he wanted when he was first making Star Wars but shooting the third film in the series last can cause some continuity problems.
Nothing that can't be fixed with a little hair gel.

Stylists have been working on Hayden Christensen's and Ewan McGregor's locks to give them shaggy 70s-style dos so Episode III blends seamlessly with Episode IV - filmed more than 20 years ago.
