Anakin Skywalker is 19 years old in Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones.

Why 19 years old?

  • Canon sources place Anakin’s birth in 41 BBY (Before the Battle of Yavin).
  • Attack of the Clones is set in 22 BBY, which makes him 19 at that point in the timeline.
  • Several modern breakdowns of the Star Wars timeline explicitly state that Anakin is 19 in Episode II, treating this as the definitive canon value.

Some older or non-canon discussions and tie‑in materials have occasionally listed him as 20, but those have since been overridden by the current official timeline, which fixes his age at 19 in Episode II.

So if you’re rewatching the prequels and wondering “how old was Anakin in Episode 2,” the clear, canon-consistent answer is: he’s 19 years old.
