![]() However, when Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy introduced the show during the 2020 Disney Investor Day, she focussed on Obi-Wan’s “greatest defeat”, which was allowing Anakin Skywalker to be corrupted and join the Dark Side of the Force. Much of the plot for Obi-Wan Kenobi is being kept under wraps, so we don’t know a huge amount of what will happen in the show. After leaving Leia with Senator Bail Organa and hiding Luke on Tatooine with his aunt, Obi-Wan then settled into hiding, waiting to oversee Luke Skywalker's training. This 10-year time jump means that Darth Vader has had plenty of time to get to work ruling over the rest of the galaxy far, far away with Emperor Palpatine. Anakin’s body was then retrieved by Emperor Palpatine who rebuilt his body and housed it in Darth Vader's iconic armour, completing his transformation into the legendary villain. If you need a refresher, in this duel Obi-Wan defeated his former Jedi apprentice and left him to die after mourning what Anakin became once he'd given in to the Dark Side. ![]() We know that the live-action Obi-Wan Kenobi series picks up 10 years after Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi faced off on Mustafar at the end of Revenge of the Sith. ( Straight Outta Compton), Sung Kang (Han Lue in the Fast & Furious franchise), Simone Kessell ( Wonderland) and Benny Safdie ( Good Time). The rest of Obi-Wan Kenobi’s cast was revealed in March, and there’s a lot of famous faces attached to the show! On hand are Moses Ingram ( The Queen’s Gambit), Joel Edgerton, Bonnie Piesse ( Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones), Kumail Nanjiani ( Eternals, The Big Sick), Indira Varma ( Game of Thrones), Rupert Friend ( Homeland), O’Shea Jackson Jr. His involvement was announced in December 2020, as part of the Disney Investor Day Star Wars presentation. The other exciting news is Hayden Christensen’s return as Darth Vader. If his comments on Jimmy Kimmel Live!are anything to go by, he’s having a pretty good time being back. Obviously, we can’t have Revenge of the Sith-era Obi-Wan Kenobi without Ewan McGregor returning, so it's good to know he’s fully on board. All these many adventures that are to come to the Disney+ exclusive series will all lead to a final confrontation between Vader and Obi-Wan, and will later connect to their final duel in A New Hope.The main cast of Obi-Wan Kenobi. Although we know nothing of the many new adventures that are to come in this new Disney+ exclusive series, we all can be sure it will be something amazing. Maybe in this new upcoming series, we will learn many new things from Kenobi’s past that will shock fans from all walks of life. I don’t even think Anakin could handle what Kenobi lived through in his many years as a Jedi. Obi-Wan suffers a lot throughout his life, seeing his master perish without even being able to stop it, losing the love of his life to the hands of Maul, and then disfiguring his best friend. By doing that, he also contributed to Anakin’s redemption, as it was due to his teaching that Luke saw the good in his already corrupted father. In some way, Kenobi is responsible for the continuation of the Jedi, as he trained the Chosen One, and The Last Jedi. In the Skywalker saga, Obi-Wan is such an important part to the story of the Skywalkers, as it was he who trained Anakin and later his son Luke. ![]() Some may be hoping to see Hayden in the Vader suit in leaked photos to come. Fans probably don't mind that this is just a small glimpse at Kenobi, as it still gets them more excited to finally see Ewan as Kenobi again. Maybe we will see Kenobi’s process as he looks out for Luke from a certain point of view. Maybe in this upcoming Star Wars series, we will see many adventures outside the desert planet of Tatooine.
