^ Yeah probably 5years after ROTS would have been more appropriate. 10 years is pushing it a bit.
Although fun fact, Ewan is 50, and Sir Alex was like 58 when he played Old Ben.
But clearly Ewan aged better. And the difference in their looks becomes more glaring the closer in time the two incarnations get.

Ya Kenobi aged REALLY hard in those last 9 years.
I've heard some decent theories about that though. Like after this series he will begin to use the force on a large scale to constantly conceal he and Luke's location from Vader, which would obviously account for why he looked so decrepit (comparatively) in ANH.

Report that Maul was originally involved, but written out (the show went through numerous rewrites even after it was announced):

I'm guessing it would have been Maul as a secondary villain instead of Inquisitors.

It’s due to the suns, they make your skin age faster

I don't think Kenobi will be ruined in this series at all. I actually think that Ewan will do a great job fleshing out the character even more.
That said, there are definitely still elements to this series that I'm not thrilled about, to say the least.
Like how the rebels stole the plans because it was in the opening crawl of A New Hope?

Due to scheduling conflicts with the Ms. Marvel series, it sounds like the release date for this is being bumped to Friday, May 27th.
Evidently the first two episodes will initially drop on the 27th, and the remaining episodes will be individually released each Wednesday afterward.

Good means I can watch the first 2 episodes together on a Friday without spoilers.

Interesting. So that means the first 3 episodes will drop in under a week, and the entire series will conclude in under a month. Not mad about that.

All streaming services should stop being massive assclowns and do what Netflix does, release the whole season at once and let people watch as they wish.

Yeah especially for something like Star Wars. Could binge ASAP and avoid spoilers. Just stay away from the net until you get those free few hours.
From a marketing perspective though they like to drag out the hype by releasing weekly. Keep people talking about it for weeks.

You should be cutting yourself for allowing him to live rent-free in your head.
He hasn't even come online since 2020.

So anyone still believe Obi-Wan isnt going to have an actual physical rematch with Vader?

Yeah he left after finding every excuse in the book not to debate me on DCEU Kal vs MCU Thanos.

Vader and Kenobi are without question fighting. I think Kenobi will escape with some form of trickery.

Actually Kenobi needs to win for the ANH dialogue to make any kind of sense.
"The circle is NOW complete. When I left you I was but the learner, NOW I Am The Master."
Also "Your Powers are weak old man."

We will see. Not sure if Disney even cares about that.

I'm worried that Favreau and Filoni weren't involved in this show...
