Gone are the days when Ewan McGregor didn’t want to hear about Star Wars anymore. After turning his back on the franchise in the early 2000s, the Scottish actor has since reunited with the Saga universe in the mini-series Obi-Wan Kenobi, available on Disney+.
Her reunion with Hayden Christensen (who played Anakin Skywalker) certainly brought back fond memories, which explains why Ewan McGregor is hoping to appear in new installments of the saga.
A season 2 of Obi-Wan Kenobi appears to be off the agenda, but the Scottish actor has announced that he is available to play the Jedi.
Younger than its predecessor
During the interview with our colleagues LADbibleThe latter was satisfied with the acceptance for the mini-series. “I still have time” He added, noting that he’s even younger than Alec Guinness, who played an older version of the character in the original trilogy films (he was 63 at the time, now a decade older than Ewan McGregor).
For that reason, Ewan McGregor says he’s interested and available for a new look for the character, regardless of whether it’s a miniseries sequel or not. Perhaps this return will give him the opportunity to share new scenes with Hayden Christensen, or Liam Neeson, who, in turn, reappeared as Qui-Gon Jinn at the end of the Kenobi series?
In any case, fans of the character and the Scottish actor will be happy to know that the latter is not going to revisit the world of the saga. As is often the case, the ball is now in the court of Lucasfilm’s leaders…
The Obi-Wan Kenobi mini-series is now available exclusively on Disney+.
