We’ve got some exciting news this Monday morning from a galaxy far, far way! StarWars.com just sent out a press release confirming the official cast for the Obi-Wan Kenobi series coming to Disney+ while also confirming that the series will start filming in April.
The story takes place a decade after Revenge of the Sith where Kenobi faced his greatest defeat, the downfall of his apprentice Anakin Skywalker who turned into the Sith Lord Darth Vader. The series will be directed by Deborah Chow who recently directed two critically acclaimed episodes of The Mandalorian.
