The Obi-Wan Kenobi series will be set 10 years after Revenge of The Sith's events, placing it neatly between the prequels and original trilogy. The series, which will bring Ewan Mcgregor back in the role he took over from Sir Alec Guinness for the prequels, will also feature the return of Hayden Christensen as Darth Vader. That casting news is set to keep the internet talking for months, teasing another showdown between the pair following their climactic battle in the Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith.
A recent production listing teased that the show would take place on Tattoine and feature an infant Luke Skywalker. However, there was no confirmation of an exact timeline, assuming it would take place several years after Obi-Wan has settled on the desert planet. Now, at Thursday's Disney Investor day, the precise timing of the series was announced.
Alongside the bombshell announcement of Christensen's return, Disney announced Obi-Wan Kenobi would take place ten years after the events seen in Revenge of the Sith and teased a showdown between McGregor and Christensen's iconic characters. You can see the announcement tweet below:
