Star Wars is a large number for the time being. There are unvarnished vibrant spots like Andor, after which there’s the whole lot else. There’s at all times a brand new hope although, and proper now that’s seeing Obi-Wan Kenobi get a second season and go full live-action Clone Wars with flashbacks galore. Regardless of no affirmation of a season 2 from Disney, star Ewan McGregor says it’s nonetheless “exploring” concepts for what such a season would possibly seem like.
This extremely skinny tease got here from an LA Comedian Con panel dialogue (by way of IGN) by which McGregor talked about his desires for a second season of the Star Wars spin-off exploring the ageing Jedi’s legacy and regrets in-between the occasions of the prequel trilogy and Star Wars: A New Hope. The reply included tapping into the crucial acclaim and passionate fandom across the animated Clone Wars, which focusses on Obi-Wan and Anakin Skywalker’s lives and relationships extra deeply than any of the movies.
“There’s a few issues,” McGregor stated when requested what he nonetheless needs to do within the Star Wars universe in any case of his earlier work. “I’d fairly prefer to put on that armor, I used to be chatting with somebody earlier, from the Clone Wars. I believe that’s one thing I’d take pleasure in.”
The actor was particularly speaking about it within the context of doing a second season of Obi-Wan Kenobi, which Disney has neither formally confirmed nor dominated out but. The most important problem to exploring the Clone Wars in that context can be de-aging McGregor. He talked about the opportunity of sporting dots on his face for 3 months to make him youthful utilizing CGI. “I don’t care, I’ll do it,” he stated. “And that means Hayden and I can actually get again collectively once more.”
The actor left just a few extra morsels for followers to salivate over. “So there’s undoubtedly that [as] one thought and the opposite one is, clearly between the top of the Obi-Wan Kenobi collection and [later] when Alec Guinness is Obi-Wan Kenobi, there’s gotta be one other few tales in there and we’re undoubtedly hoping…nicely, ‘exploring’ that, I believe, can be the phrase to say,” he concluded.
Whereas Obi-Wan Kenobi wasn’t a fantastic Star Wars TV present, seeing it change into a venue to showcase a few of the coolest stuff from Clone Wars is trying like an more and more preferable choice to what’s occurring in the remainder of the prolonged cinematic universe for the time being. Whereas Star Wars Ahsoka is getting a second season, it was lately reported {that a} as soon as deliberate Mandalorian season 4 grew to become the Grogu film as an alternative. Acolyte was ditched after only one season, and there aren’t any plans but for whether or not December’s Skeleton Crew will change into greater than a restricted collection. And the subsequent correct Star Wars movie sequel continues to be nowhere in sight.
