The Movies

A child born of prophecy, possibly conceived by the will of the Force itself, Anakin Skywalker has left an indelible mark on the history of the galaxy, leading it through periods of lightness and dark.

Expanded Universe

As a child, Anakin would often risk his own well being to bring help to those who needed it, heedless of the consequences.

Behind the Scenes

The name Anakin dates back to the earliest drafts of Star Wars, where the character was to play a role similar to Luke's in A New Hope.
