We’ve known this was coming for quite a while now, but an announcement by Disney at the 2019 D23 expo makes it official. A Star Wars series starring Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan Kenobi is headed to Disney Plus.
It started as a hope; fans wanted a standalone movie with the Jedi master, trainer and mentor of the future Darth Vader.
