What is the age difference between Anakin and Padme?
AOTC takes place a little over ten years after TPM. Anakin is 20; Padme is 24. James T. Skywalker posted, “In the AOTC novel, Anakin had, one month before the movie, just turned twenty years old. Which means that Anakin’s tenth birthday was just a few weeks or so after TPM, making AOTC just a little more than exactly ten years after Episode I.” New-and-Improved Spewey gives us some more information on Natalie Portman and Hayden Christensen’s ages: “…there is approximately a 2-month age difference between Hayden and Natalie. Hayden was born April 19, 1981.
