Obi-Wan Kenobi stars Ewan McGregor, reprising his role as the iconic Jedi Master, and also marks the return of Hayden Christensen in the role of Darth Vader. But we'll see."īelow, see the first images from Obi-Wan Kenobi "Part VI," now streaming on Disney+.The story begins 10 years after the dramatic events of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith where Obi-Wan Kenobi faced his greatest defeat-the downfall and corruption of his best friend and Jedi apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, who turned to the dark side as an evil Sith Lord Darth Vader. "And if we feel like, 'OK, there's a real reason to do this it's answering the why then,' then we'll do it. "We'll certainly give that consideration because the fans, they speak to us," Kennedy said. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Lucasfilm president and producer Kathleen Kennedy noted Obi-Wan was conceived "as a limited series," but said a Season 2 may happen "if there's huge engagement and people really want more Obi-Wan." "Īfter their reunion and rematch in Obi-Wan Kenobi, McGregor and Christensen are hopeful for a second season of the Star Wars series. McGregor continued, "It's a much darker, more broken place than we've ever seen the character before, either with me or with Alec Guinness. So, he's not only grieving, but he's also feeling responsible for losing his brother." Also, he's carrying this amazing guilt because he feels that he lost his brother to the dark side, and he should've been able to see that was going to happen and stop that from happening. All his friends are either killed or gone into hiding, so he's very much alone and lost. His Jedi order that he loves and believes in is torn apart. "We see at the end of Revenge of the Sith, everything he's known and worked for and worked toward is destroyed. "He's a more broken character than we've ever seen before," McGregor told EW of the Jedi he played in The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith. Having reconnected with the Force - and his old Jedi Master, Force ghost Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson) - a more hopeful Obi-Wan emerges on the sands of Tatooine. In another crushing blow to the Empire, Reva the Third Sister defects from the Inquisitorius when she abandons her decade-long vendetta against the fallen Anakin Skywalker.
