The journey to get Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi to the screen was as arduous as a trek across the deserts of Tatooine, but it’s fair to say that the Deborah Chow directed limited-series, which brought back Ewan McGregor as Ben Kenobi and Hayden Christensen as Darth Vader, was among the streamers very best Star Wars output.
Now as we all sit like meditating Jedi, patiently awaiting the announcement for further seasons of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Disney have released a trailer for the documentary Obi-Wan Kenobi: A Jedi’s Return, which will take a look behind-the-scenes of the years in the making show, with all involved talking about what Star Wars and the character of Obi-Wan means to them.
Experience Obi-Wan Kenobi: A Jedi’s Return. This special explores the return of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker to the screen, as well as Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen to their classic roles. Director Deborah Chow leads the cast and crew as they create new heroes and villains that live alongside new incarnations of beloved Star Wars characters, and an epic story that dramatically bridges the saga films.
