Speaking on the BBC’s Graham Norton show on October 9, Ewan McGregor confirmed that the Obi-Wan Kenobi series is set to head in front of cameras in March 2021.

“It’s the Obi-Wan Kenobi story, I suppose. It’s not all me, but it certainly will be a lot of me, which is good,” he joked.

“The fun thing about doing that in the first place when I was much younger was trying to imagine Alec Guinness, how would he play these scenes as a younger guy?” McGregor said. “It led me to watch some of his earlier work, which I had never seen before. Brilliant movies, wonderful films that he’d been in, and I had such a great time studying him in those movies.”

Wisely, Disney+ has yet to suggest a release date for the Kenobi series, which has already been pushed back a number of times because of changes in the writers’ room and then the pandemic. Their first original series, The Mandalorian, returns on October 30.
