8.21.00 Romance between Hayden and Natalie both on and off screen? Our informant on the Star Wars set in Sydney continues to deliver the goods, today suggesting that an on-set romance between Natalie Portman and co-star Hayden Christensen may be in the cards. Apparently the two are putting more passion into their on-screen romance than absolutely necessary, with luscious Natalie flashing her deep, brown eyes at the young Anakin with every opportunity. She also accompanies him on many of his extremely regular cigarette breaks -- despite the fact that she doesn`t smoke! Sexual tension between Anakin and the good Queen is almost palpable according to our source. The pair don't have much in the way of company their own age on the set, so they've been talking together frequently. Our mole said that while they're probably only very close friends at the moment, their mutual affection could be a prelude to something more serious, if on-set gossip is anything to go by. Ooooohh Spoilers - Highlight to read: Our informant drew particular attention to a scene that sees Anakin and Queen Amidala in the confines of an intergalactic hotel spacecraft (the rooms have a bar on one side serving red cabbage, bread and wine, with beds in capsules on the other). The two are in the ship's cargo hold, with Anakin Skywalker playing bodyguard to the Queen, who's on the run for her life. In the scene, which features the two characters getting closer and closer, Natalie is dressed in a stiff, bright green, A-line travelling dress (jim-jams) while the always alert Anakin wears standard Jedi garb complete with dirty big plaited rat's-tail hairdo. Also included in the scene are a whole bunch of other humans and aliens, many of whom are wearing latex costumes that are so heavy and hot that production assistants are kept on hand to deliver resuscitating blasts of fresh oxygen as required. Both of the young stars are friendly,
