Obi-Wan Kenobi's New Inquisitor Reva Character Details Revealed
Obi-Wan Kenobi director Deborah Chow reveals new details about Moses Ingram's new Star Wars villain, the Sith Inquisitor Reva. Taking place 10 years after the events of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith (2005), Obi-Wan Kenobi follows Ewan McGregor’s titular Jedi Master during his time in exile as “Ben” on Tatooine—where he watches over a young Luke Skywalker (Grant Feely) from afar. In addition to returning legacy characters like Obi-Wan, Hayden Christensen’s Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader, Joel Edgerton’s Uncle Owen, Bonnie Piesse’s Aunt Beru, and the live-action debut of the Grand Inquisitor, the limited series introduces brand new characters in Kumail Nanjiani’s Haja and Ingram’s (The Queen’s Gambit) Reva the Third Sister.
At the height of the Galactic Empire’s meteoric rise, Vader dispatched the Grand Inquisitor and his band of Inquisitors to exterminate Jedi and/or Force users who managed to survive Order 66. This has been explored in Dave Filoni’s animated series Star Wars: Rebels and the video game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. In Obi-Wan Kenobi, Rupert Friend inherits the role of the Grand Inquisitor from voice actor Jason Isaacs and Ingram appears as his underling, Reva. Given the mystery surrounding this new character, fans have been eager to discover how the Third Sister will play into Obi-Wan Kenobi.
