YES. THAT. that’s exactly what I was thinking of! also dealing with the idea of a young, brilliant, talented anakin skywalker but with JEJ’s childhood stammer? also he had a totally shaved head at one point for a role (I can’t remember which) and it’s the most Vader-unmasked thing I’ve ever seen???
Yes excellent.
And Padme remembers Anakin as this adorable genius little kid with the stutter, and then ten years later he shows up looking Like That and with That Voice and it’s pretty much over for her.
Also consider: post-ROTJ AU where Anakin survives:
(with a few more scars, of course, but you’re right that this is peak unmasked Vader)
