Jonathan Jackson, 17, is about to be a huge force in Hollywood. That's because The Force is soon to be with him, at least according to the rumors we've been hearing. Several actors, including James Van Beek, and Leonardo DiCaprio, are said to be up for the part of Anakin Skywalker in the next Star Wars installment, but Jonathan's the guy fans want (he beat Leo 55 percent to 25 percent in an E! Television poll.) If it happens? "I would be thrilled," says Jonathan, who also shared this whopper with us: "I've never seen the first three." NO WAY!
Whether he lands the role or not, he's one of the hottest talents around. He's won tw Daytime emmys for his portrayal of Lucky Spencer on General Hospital, amazed us in Deep End of the Ocean and will wow audiences once again as a young militia leader in the indie True Rights, which also stars his brother, Richard Lee Jackson. "I'd like to direct and write, and sing too," says Jonathan, who's already starting to write scripts and record with his band. Scarlet Road. Guess that director's chair is right around the corner.......
