We’ve been hearing about a KENOBI project, based on the legendary Jedi, for years. First as a possible movie project. But with the poor box office of SOLO, pretty much all spin-off movies were sidelined, and development on the project seemed to have all but stopped. <\/p>\n
But with D23 that has all changed. During the Lucasfilm panel at Disney’s annual fan-event, it was announced that joining THE MANDALORIAN on Disney+, we’ll be getting a series on Obi-Wan Kenobi starring Ewan McGregor, who took on the role in the Star Wars prequels.<\/p>\n
I know, I know, “prequels, ewwwww”, I get it, and I definitely share the sentiment. But you have to admit that McGregor’s role in the trilogy was definitely a standout, and I personally can’t wait for this to premiere, especially under the leadership of Kathleen Kennedy.<\/p>\n
Not much else is known except that production will begin next year, and the series will take place after the events in SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY. So who knows, maybe we’ll get more Darth Maul? We’ll see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
