Hayden Christensen designing fashion line

Star Wars actor Hayden Christensen is stepping into the world of fashion by launching a menswear line.

The star has teamed up with Canadian retailer RW&CO to create a 20-piece collection, which is set to feature shirts, jackets and sweaters.

Christensen says, "I'm excited to partner with a brand I feel such an authentic connection to and one that shares my detail-oriented design sensibility. I'm looking forward to wearing my designs."

The actor's farm in Ontario, Canada, which he bought five years ago, has reportedly inspired the collection, which is due to hit shelves on 7 November (13).
