Ewan McGregor Gives Disappointing Update On Obi-Wan Kenobi Season 2, But Still "Pretty Sure" He'll Return Again? ›

Summary. Ewan McGregor hints at returning to Star Wars beyond the Obi-Wan Kenobi show, leaving the door open for more stories with the iconic character. Star Wars actors like McGregor and Christensen

The saddest thing about Obi Wan Kenobi is the seeming futility of his actions… until the very end. In The Phantom Menace he can't save his master. In attack of the Clones he can't stop Dooku's escape.

The movie novelization, however, did include a line in which Kenobi referred to "[his] brother Owen." Similarly, Owen Lars was explicitly described as the "brother of Obi-Wan Kenobi" in the Premiere Limited set of the Star Wars Customizable Card Game released by Decipher, Inc.

During his years as a Jedi, Obi-Wan Kenobi fought with three lightsabers. His first had a blue plasma blade and a hilt similar to that of his master, Qui-Gon Jinn. Obi-Wan used this weapon until Darth Maul kicked it into a deep shaft on Naboo. He then constructed a new, blue-bladed lightsaber with a similar design.

McGregor portrayed Obi-Wan at different ages, from being the apprentice of Liam Neeson's Qui-Gon Jin at 26 in The Phantom Menace to a more confident and capable, but still flawed Jedi at 32 in Revenge of the Sith.

And he also knew they hadn't seen each other since they were born and subsequently separated... until they reunited on the Death Star (h/t Mads). At that moment, Obi-Wan sees them together for the first time in decades, smiles, and then allows Darth Vader to kill him.

When he dies in Rebels you see Obi-wan holding the dying body of Maul. This is supposed to represent that he's gone beyond hatred or anger towards Maul, and instead feel pity that it had to end this way.

Anakin Solo is the youngest child born to Han Solo and Princess Leia, and the younger brother of Jacen and Jaina Solo.

In canon no Obi-Wan doesn't have kids. However, there is this theory where he and Satine had a child together but she hide it from him, knowing how it could ruin his jedi career. This child would be Satine's “nephew” Korkie Kryze…

During Mandalore's Civil War and his apprenticeship under Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan fell in love with the young duch*ess Satine Kryze. The two lived on the run for over a year. Satine reciprocated his feelings as he saved her life from insurgents and bounty hunters.

What Jedi has 4 lightsabers? ›

While he is not Force-sensitive, Grievous has been trained in all forms of lightsaber combat by Count Dooku. Each of his mechanical arms can separate in half, allowing him to wield four lightsabers at once to overwhelm his enemies.

In a galaxy filled with lightsabers of various colours, the Darksaber stands out as the rarest lightsaber colour, shrouded in mystery and steeped in history. Created by the first Mandalorian Jedi, it has passed through the hands of warriors, terrorists, and heroes, leaving an indelible mark on the Star Wars universe.

With his children raised in Mavrakis's Jewish faith, McGregor said in 2016, "My involvement in religion has more to do with the Jewish faith now and not the Christian faith, which I was very vaguely brought up in." McGregor has a heart and dagger tattoo of the names of Mavrakis and their daughters on his right arm.

It's a different story in A New Hope when Obi-Wan is older and slower - given this is ground zero for the Star Wars timeline, taking place in 0 BBY, it means Darth Vader is 41 years old at this point, while Obi-Wan is 57 when he dies.

Obi-Wan's trauma

The Jedi Master lost the most out of any of the characters in this series. What is this? He lost the Jedi order, a group that he dedicated his life to, and the loss of all of his friends and the young Jedi at the hands of the Sith enacts a heavy toll on him.

The message reads, “There are certain scenes in this fictional series that some viewers may find upsetting.” The latest warning was put on the episode for the same reason a warning was added to the premiere episode that dropped May 27: there is violence against children.

1 Obi-Wan Kenobi

Throughout the entire prequel franchise, Obi-Wan has watched everyone close to him die. Beginning with Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan has also been there for the deaths of Satine Kryze, Padmé Amidala, all the clones under his command, and even Anakin Skywalker in a way. He was cursed by outliving them all.

Arguments might be made that he suffers from dysthymic disorder (mild but persistent and intrusive depression) because he does not openly demonstrate his suffering at the story's beginning, or posttraumatic stress disorder because these problems follow the traumatic events of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.
