Disney is remaining pretty tight-lipped about Obi-Wan Kenobi, but we do know that Hayden Christensen is expected to reprise his roll as Anakin and that the bulk of the action will take place when Kenobi is middle-aged and living as a hermit on Tatooine.
At this point in the Star Wars timeline, Kenobi serves as a distant guardian to Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader is already terrorizing the galaxy.
In terms of the creatives behind the project, we know that Deborah Chow, who previously directed episodes of The Mandalorian, is the showrunner for this new series. Other cast members have also been announced including Joel Edgerton and Bonnie Piesse will be back as Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru, Luke’s adoptive parents.
Ewan McGregor will also be returning of course to the role of Obi-Wan.
You can take a look at the official teaser trailer below:
