EWAN MCGREGOR IS BACK AS OBI-WAN, BABY!!!
WELL HELLO THERE!!!
Star Wars just knocked their D23 panel out of the fucking park, teasing new Clone Wars content…
As well as premiering the UNBELIEVABLE trailer for Disney+’s “The Mandalorian”, from Jon Favreau & Dave Filoni…
ANNNNND THEN THEY CLOSED THE SHOW WITH EWAN MOTHERFUCKING MCGREGOR MAKING IT OFFICIAL THAT YES, HE IS BACK AS OBI-WAN KENOBI!!!
It’ll be in the form of a Disney+ television series and the scripts are already written for it! It starts shooting next year! This is quite possibly Star Wars fans’ most longstanding request from Lucasfilm/Disney, and honestly, every Star Wars fan I know has wanted this ever since Lucas sold the company in 2012…so people went fucking NUTS – as expected.
Ewan has always been the shining star of the prequels and embraced his role in them tremendously, so getting to see this beautiful payoff – where he got to announce he’ll be returning to the franchise to thunderous, deafening applause and cheering – just pumped me the fuck up. Oh, and the prospect of him getting a shot at Obi-Wan without horrible George Lucas dialogue? I’m gonna pass out. Holy shit.
