‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’ rewritten to avoid ‘The Mandalorian’ comparisons

Obi-Wan Kenobi will land on Disney Plus in May and is set to be the centerpiece of Lucasfilm’s 2022 lineup. The show will see Ewan McGregor reprise his iconic prequel trilogy role in an adventure taking him far from the Tatooine sands as he tries to evade the Empire’s Jedi Inquisitors. But it hasn’t been an easy road to get the show made.

The original plan was to bring back McGregor for an Obi-Wan Kenobi spinoff movie, though this was shelved after the disappointing box office and critical reception of Solo: A Star Wars Story.
