With a first look at Lucasfilm’s Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi expected to arrive tomorrow during Disney+ Day, a sizzle reel for the live-action series popped up online today, and while it’s swiftly disappeared, some concept art remains.
As well as teasing the upcoming rematch between Ewan McGregor’s Ben Kenobi and Hayden Christensen’s Darth Vader (something which is sure to prove controversial with some fans), it also confirms the live-action debut of the Emperor’s Jedi hunters the Inquisitors, along with a return to Vader’s Castle on Mustafar. Take a look at the concept art here…
