Ewan McGregor never thought he would return to the world of Star Wars, but now that he has for Disney+’s upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series, he’s ready to return for more if they’ll have him.
McGregor also spoke about returning to a role that he’s so well-known for years later, and said that getting to return and help bridge the gap between himself and Alec Guinness (who played the original Obi-Wan Kenobi in 1977’s Star Wars) was great.
Obi-Wan Kenobi will see the return of Ewan McGregor to the Star Wars universe as he reprises his iconic role as the titular Jedi master, whom he famously portrayed in George Lucas’ prequel trilogy.
“It was nice to come back and to bridge that gap between me and Alec Guinness,” said McGregor.
