The next Star Wars TV show? Disney Plus turns to the Obi-Wan TV series

Are you afraid you won't have enough Star Wars TV shows and movies for years to come? Well, it seems Disney Plus has got you covered, with an iconic Mentor and Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi ("Ben" to you) television show expected to enter the Disney Plus streaming service. .

The Hollywood Reporter confirmed that an Obi-Wan television show was scheduled for Disney Plus, but that Trainspotting actor and Christopher Robin, Ewan McGregor, were in talks to reprise his role as the classic character. McGregor played Obi-Wan in the second Star Wars film trilogy: The Phantom Menace, The Clone Attack, and The Sith's Revenge.

Of course, as long as the actor is negotiating, the fate of the television series is not certain. Disney may require McGregor to partner with the project to move it forward, but may also consider using another actor if his schedule or compensation expectations don't match his.

More Star Wars shows, please

The Obi-Wan show is just one of many shows and movies planned for the Star Wars universe. We started to get excited about Disney Plus with information on The Mandalorian, an upcoming Star Wars TV show, while a TV series on Cassian Andor is also in the works.

With Star Wars IX in theaters in December, and a Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order video game for consoles and PC a few weeks ago, there is no shortage of Star Wars content to satisfy fans.

So far, the extension of the cinematic universe means that Disney could expand the lives of many characters and planets. Why not an Ewok documentary or Office-style comedy series on Death Star? Remember us when you can, Disney.
