Ewan McGregor to Return as Obi Wan Kenobi in Disney Plus Series

Rolling

Much more content in a series. Id take that instead. And they wont be cheap

Rian Johnson is getting the actual kino, sorry plebs.

Unlike basically everything else Star Wars related recently I would watch this. And it's not because this is something I recognize it is because Ewan McGregor is a good actor and there is room to explore an interest Obi Wan adventure set during his exile.

>Source: My ass.
Yeah, the media claimed a year or two ago that an Obi-Wan film was happening with literally no sources whatsoever, then they tried to claim that George Lucas was scouting for locations for the Obi-Wan film despite only visiting the Game of Thrones set for fun, and now they're trying to say they're making an Obi-Wan TV series? Hell, they even changed the release date, reporting that the spin off film was set to be filmed this year and released in 20/21. What's laughable is that ever since the media have claimed that an Obi-Wan film has been confirmed, Lucasfilm has officially confirmed a trilogy from Rian and a trilogy from the guys who wrote GoT, yet Lucasfilm have still never spoken out about an Obi-Wan film being in the works.
This amount of damage control is embarrassing and shame on anyone who believes this garbage journalism.

It'll be movie-tier budget with a couple of episodes.

ewan should have held out for a movie. i mean fuck a disney+ series? he must be really hurting for $$$. MEW is probably sucking him dry figuratively and literally.

Please don’t do that.

It's finally fucking happening. This series is gonna be about how he fucks Rey's grandma.

I want a mini-series you fag

Yeah, I think 6 hour long eps are better than a two hour movie as well.

The non-clickbaity Star Wars spy sites are reporting it. Also, pic related has a role in it.

All that means is worse pacing. The modern serialized drama is not enough butter spread over too much bread.

>Based mass quoting retard faggot poster

These are the same fucking people that also retracted their whole One Direction guy is play that prince in The Little Mermaid moments ago just for being in talks. These clickbait sites jump on anything and write articles with no legit confrontation. We've been hearing about this stuff for ages. Being in talks is basically all the legit info we have and that's never concrete. In talks can go in any direction and they still run with it.

The sites I'm talking about only report on Star Wars, so no.

The sites reporting it say it's 100% signed. Ewan wanted to direct some episodes, and he got that as part of his deal.

Then why hasn't Lucasfilm announced it? So far everything we got since 2012 was directly announced and confirmed on the Star Wars website yet NOTHING has been said or even hinted about anything related to Obi-Wan. Stop talking out of your ass. These sites already confirmed that a film was set to release in 2021. I'll still be here waiting and laughing when it comes to 2021 and you don't get your Obi-Wan film but Rian's trilogy.

What are your so called Star Wars spy sites?

Reddit.

They also said the One Direction guy was signed and was retracted afterward. Those sites think being in talks equals it's signed. Lots of people can go for in talks and then go in the opposite direction. Wait until confirmation before taking every rumor at face value.

Yeah me too, fleshed out content is great. ADHD is a sad illness I hope we cure some day.

What a joke.

"They" literally did not. The sites that get stuff right are the ones who started reporting about Obi-Wan today. D23 convention is in a week. They'll save the announcement for that.

There were sites with set photos of The Mandalorian before the damn thing had even been announced.

Remember that poster art that Mark Hamill said was fake that was leaked? It was real, and the same sites who leaked it leaked this today.

BespinBulletin Instagram has insiders and get a lot of shit right. The person who replied "Reddit" was not me.

>They'll save the announcement for that.
We'll be waiting right here next week, user.

Dumbass. More than one person besides you is posting here.

Do you have enough piss jugs to last until 8/23?

Has Redlettermedia told me what to think about this yet?

Physical evidence you took a photo of. Of better yet people taking photos of unreleased brand toys they say are leaks. Yeah, that's not same as being in a room with people taking about ideas. It's a false equivalence. In talks about this happened like this years ago and nothing happened still. I'll wait until actual official announcements.

hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/obi-wan-kenobi-star-wars-film-planned-director-talks-1030505

I'll believe it when I see it. Your source also stated the film was supposed to come out in 2020 which was all horseshit.

This. I want to see Obi flipping around on the big screen not on my 20" laptop screen.

yes

Like what exactly. And no i'm not talking about unreleased brand toys / merchandise or vehicle set photos. I mean what plot leaks or casting info was he on?

Now Variety is reporting it. They don't report on shit unless it 100% confirmed.

the story i made in my mind is basically the outlaw jose wales in space with jedi, bounty hunters, the sand people are the Indians at the end. like hit all the same notes, of him the rebel on the run, have the final stand off and everything.

no way Disney comes anywhere close to making something that kino

Well pandering to OTfags didn't work. Maybe it'll work this time

Maul surviving getting sliced in half and falling down a chasm is fucking retarded.

Variety link in in OP, doofus. At least you aren't the biggest retard in this thread. It is true that the SW spy sites beat Variety to it, though.

What would R5-D4's role in your script be? Remember that Ben doesn't remember ever owning a droid, so he can't belong to him.

>Cartoons
>Canon
Next thing you'll be telling me that the fart wedding was canon.

This dude sucked ass as Obi Wan.

Nice catch! : )

GET THAT SCOTTISH COCKSUCKER

The source is right there in the OP. Name one time Variety reported on a rumor that didn't pan out. They report when they know it's fact. They aren't some blog or Mike Zeroh.

These stories are written by literal man children who have lived in luxury for so long they've lost all understanding of reality.

>tv series
Might actually be good then, the Mandalorian looks promising

He canonically loved the Dutchess of Mandalore.

Will they just use the book from legends? Because it was very good
Bisexual it is then

Variety is usually accurate... but Doomcock has an all-powerful interdimentional being in a containment field, so I will wait for his final word on the matter. }: I

I hope they turn him into an pansexual otherkin.

The Mandalorian's showrunners are Filoni and Favreau, you couldn't have asked for a better showrunners for Star Wars. Kenobi's showrunner might be Rian Johnson for all we know

Like this. They give reports on rumors all the time.

variety.com/2017/film/news/obi-wan-kenobi-star-wars-movie-disney-stephen-daldry-1202531346/

Maybe Rian gets to direct three episodes. His beloved trilogy! x)

Three out of 6 episodes is more than enough to turn the show into a disaster. That's why i never wanted Kenobi movie or a series and never understood people that kept asking for it, i like the character too much to see diesney rape him

Everything released post '14 is canon with the exception of TCW. That was is canon

What was their reasoning? He fell through a tower of pillows and his species have arteries that immediately seal?

Just close your eyes, click your ruby slippers together, and whisper to yourself:

"Solo never happened. Solo never happened. Solo never happened..."

that and alec guinness being dead makes me too sad

How can i say that, it had the perfect trailer youtube.com/watch?v=oM_WvP4bVKs

If they pull it off, this will save Star Wars. They need to appeal to the Prequel chads.

I'm not a big prequel fan but I'm still bitter about Disney ignoring stuff made by Lucas.

Yes- assuming firing KK, JJ, Rian and Bad Robot is part of the deal. (I hope Ian specified this in his contract)

I love this Scottish guy

I hate this scottish cheater for choosing to fuck the homewrecker

Daldry later confirmed that all that was true. There's a high probably that the development is being carried over to this series. Like how the work they were starting on a Boba Fett flick turned into The Mandalorian. Story elements of Solo came from the Underworld tv show scripts Lucas had. Also, Variety presented that story as "development", whereas they're presenting today's as a done deal.

still gotta hammer out some details.
another one would be who plays the part of fletcher(dark jedi?), I'd really need someone who has a deep understanding of the lore to pic the right characters to fit the narrative. like fuck making up new characters, use the ones from legends and make them cannon.

There is 0% chance of this a.) happening and/or b.) being good.
Anyone who thinks otherwise is delusional and should report the infirmary.

GET THAT JEDI COCKSUCKER

>Riley catches the Scottish Jedi drunk at the cantina
>bar fight ensues

They'll probably destroy his character next now that they finished off Luke.

But who is MEW gonna play?

The bounty hunter working for Crimson Dawn who finds him. Instead of trying to kill him, she willingly becomes his pusyslave.

When and where did he say he was involved? Also if the article was even true, there is no evidence that his material was even kept. You know Johnson scrapped JJ's drafts of episode 8 and JJ had to most likely start from scratch with episode 9 after Trevorrow's departure if you're looking at the credits of the movie. They have scrapped tons of scripts over the time. There is no evidence that they would've kept his ideas after 2 years and only being in talks as the indicator. Directors go for in talks with studios all the time. That's like saying Magnold was involved with The Mandarin just because he was in talks with doing a rumored Boba Fett movie.

Mew Homewrecker, twi'lek assassin.

has Lucasfilm officially announced Rian's Trilogy and D&D's project?

Bob Iger announced a trilogy coming soon. That's all the legit confirmation there was.

If only Google existed, you could type relevant keywords and find exactly what he said. I already read it, so I don't need to find it again.

>The youth novels are canon

Darth Maul had the same lightsaber from the Rebels cartoon in the Solo movie.

I did. Can't find it. Does it exist or are you just lying?

They're pretty good. Especially Lost Stars

I would love to see more Ray Park as Maul. Too bad they'd go with Sam Witwer instead of Peter Serafinowicz. Apparently, they had Serafinowicz go in to record lines for Solo, but went for Witwer instead. The Clone Wars is zoomer trash.

>if user can't find it in the archives, it doesn't exist!

Attached: Alethea_McGrath_Star_Wars.jpg (220x348, 11K)

Maybe Pete shouldn't have publicly stated that "working" for Lucas on TPM was bullshit.

And yet I was able to post my 2 year old link for similar reasons as evidence and yet you still fail to prove your point with evidence. How shocking.

Chadwit is based as fuck and actually loves Star Wars unlike Serafinowicz.

It's to setup a Vader vs Maul fight. Rebels already laid the groundwork by showing Maul knows how formidable Vader is and how his criminal empire is now in ruins because he's being hunted by inquisitors.

I made a headkino version of Fallout 4 that shamelessly rips off Metropolis, complete with synth soundtrack

>Any person with half a brain knows the only reason they randomly shoved in maul into solo was to set up another fight with obi
Obi already killed Maul on Rebels.

To be fair, Peter's favorite film is A New Hope. It's nice that Witwer is a big fan. The Force Unleashed games were pretty cool.

I'm personally hoping he teams up with Cody since Temuera Morrison is also the perfect age to play an aged clone.
I wonder is the Republic/Empire has a graveyard world for its fallen veterans. Be kind of neat to see where they put all those dead clones.

The smugness of this bitch made killing her in the Episode III video game so satisfying.

Who cares? This will be trash.

the empire probably just sent the aging clones into homes and forgot about them, most of the republic saw them as flesh droids and not much else

Your mind-tricks won't work on ME, boy. Find that shit yourself. It exists. Somebody asked him, he said yeah, but not anymore. I'm not combing through articles just so you can decide that you're still right. The link you posted as rumor was fact, so you being able to find it to post to back up your claim makes little difference.

If anyone not on Tatooine knows about where Obi-Wan is who is not Bail Organa or Yoda, shit starts getting complicated and could easily be picked apart for fucking up 40 years of lore. Ezra finds him, but doesn't tell anyone, then gets lost in space. Maul finds him after almost two decades and immediately dies. So I guess those instances are ok.

Where would a Vader vs Maul fight even fit?

Not really. They're reusing set pieces and props.

Knives out looks like total shit. Netflix tier.

Would like to see Temura Morrison again. W
He gave a pretty solid performance in the original Battlefront 2 as a clone so would be good to see him.
Not sure if it would be as Cody since the moment Order 66 came through he had his guys blast Obi-Wan when he'd been talking to him like 30 seconds before. Seems like an asshole to me.

These things only get announced at events now.

I knew you were full of shit. You have no sources to back up your claim. You made this shit up and tried to pass it as a fact because you're clueless as shit. You're a joke kid. Also, in journalism, the article would be considered a rumor with no official announcements from Lucasfilm about it and especially with your made up bullshit. Don't be frightened when I call you out on your sad attempt to make an argument because it makes you look like a desperate fool kid. Try next time.

Duel of The Fates is actually the best saber battle in the series change my mind

>mommy, a mean man on the internet won't google a quote for me!
>I called him a kid, haha! I BTFO'd another one
>MOMMY LISTEN TO ME YOU FUCKING BITCH!

>Your mind-tricks won't work on ME
>I SAID STAR WARS STUFF DADDY

Kid. You sure are something else.

Both of you should shut up. No well adjusted adult would have such a lack of self-awareness. You write like a child while calling someone else a kid. Imagine getting your jimmies rustled over something so inconsequential.

No, because I agree with you.

Pretty much anywhere after Solo and before Rebels.

Of course he is. Why do you think he spend all those years on Tatooine watching a little boy turn into a young man?

Too little too late. And even if it's true what the fuck is it going to be about? Obi living on Tatooine? They can't even use Maul because canon cartoon killed him anyways.

I could understand a movie about his adventure we never heard about, but a TV show?
