However, even if it isn’t Owen, Joel Edgerton just wants in on these new Star Wars movies any way he can.
We know that Ewan McGregor is game, but now Joel Edgerton, who starred as Uncle Owen in the Star Wars prequels, also wants to come back for one of the many impending Star Wars Story spin-offs.
If Lucasfilm does announce the Obi-Wan movie, which they very well may do at D23 next month, Joel Edgerton may get his wish.
Joel Edgerton played a young version of Luke Skywalker’s uncle, Owen Lars, in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones and very briefly at the end of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith.
