Vader vs. Obi-Wan Rematch Reason Will Surprise Die-Hard Star Wars Fans
The reason for the Obi-Wan Darth Vader rematch in Obi-Wan Kenobi will surprise Star Wars fans. Lucasfilm is making its return to Disney+ after The Book of Boba Fett with another classic character in Obi-Wan Kenobi. Ewan McGregor reprises his beloved Star Wars role alongside Hayden Christensen, who revisits Darth Vader, this time on the small screen.
Lucasfilm is all out in terms of marketing Obi-Wan Kenobi, which is directed by Deborah Chow with a story written by Joby Harold. Throughout its promotional period, new details about what to expect from the show have emerged, including the arrival of Moses Ingram's Reva/the Third Sister, who functions as the story's primary antagonist.

Amidst all of this, however, arguably the most exciting part of Obi-Wan Kenobi is the rematch between former allies, Obi-Wan and Anakin Skywalker, who is now known as Darth Vader. While their falling out was tackled in Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith and effectively set up their next battle, the reason for their upcoming face-off maybe something totally unexpected.
