Shmi Skywalker was her first English-speaking role, and at first she
was reluctant to take it, fearing audiences would not be able to
understand her English very well. George Lucas assured her that it would be
fine, and joked that Shmi came from a Swedish-speaking part of the
galaxy. This turned out to be strangely appropriate, as her on-screen
son Hayden Christensen and grandson Mark Hamill both have Swedish ancestry as
well.
