Why Ewan McGregor Preferred Kenobi Show's Filming To Star Wars Prequels
Ewan McGregor says he preferred filming Obi-Wan Kenobi over the Star Wars prequel trilogy. Set 10 years after the cataclysmic events of Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, the Disney+ series follows the titular Jedi as he hides on Tatooine, avoiding the gaze of the Galactic Empire. However, when Obi-Wan is called upon to take up his lightsaber and save a young Princess Leia, Kenobi is forced to confront Darth Vader. Alongside McGregor, the series boasts a number of returning stars, including Hayden Christensen, Joel Edgerton, Bonnie Piesse, Jimmy Smits and James Earl Jones all reprising their roles from the Star Wars films, as well as several newcomers.
