Star Wars News - Kenobi Release Date and NEW CANON - World Between Worlds

Disney CEO Bob Chapek said during the company’s Wednesday earnings call that the next Star Wars Disney+ series, Obi-Wan Kenobi, will debut on May 25, the Wednesday before Memorial Day weekend.

Obi-Wan Kenobi sees the return of Ewan McGregor as the younger Obi-Wan. Hayden Christensen is expected to return as Darth Vader. Also starring are Moses Ingram, Joel Edgerton, Bonnie Piesse, Kumail Nanjiani, Indira Varma, Rupert Friend, O’Shea Jackson Jr., Sung Kang, Simone Kessell and Benny Safdie.

The series is executive produced by Kathleen Kennedy, Michelle Rejwan, Deborah Chow, McGregor and Joby Harold.

In a recent interview, Ewan McGregor said the following: “I think it’s no secret that Hayden Christensen comes back and we got to play scenes together again as Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker and it was just fantastic to work with him again. I’m not going to give away anything else about the storyline, only I think it’s really going to satisfy Star Wars fans. I always felt there was a story between Episode III where I finished playing Obi-Wan in the movies and Episode IV where Alec Guinness is Obi-Wan Kenobi. The [Obi-Wan Kenobi series] writers and [director Deborah Chow] and I and everyone, I think we crafted or they crafted a very fine storyline. I think people are going to like it.”

In a blog post on the official Star Wars website, Lucasfilm confirmed the temple being built in Chapter 6 of The Book of Boba Fett is the temple destroyed by Kylo Ren in The Last Jedi.

Kristen Baver confirms, “We’ve glimpsed Luke’s storied temple in comic books and on film, although to be fair it was mostly rubble and flame in Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Now, we turn back the clock to see the new Jedi school at its inception, with ant droids working hard to place every stone on the first humble hut.”

The Latest The Book Of Boba Fett Episode Cements The Sequel Trilogy While Failing To Understand Darth Vader’s Redemption In Return Of The Jedi

The newly released Chapter 7 of The Book of Boba Fett would also provide more confirmation the show leads to the sequel trilogy as Grogu is shown wearing the Beskar armor gifted to him by Din Djarin.

In Chapter 6, Grogu was given an ultimatum by Luke Skywalker that he had to choose between being a Jedi and his friendship with Din Djarin.

Given Grogu is seen wearing the armor, it appears he chose his friendship with Din Djarin over the Jedi.
