Hayden Christensen Will Reprise Darth Vader for Obi-Wan ‘Star Wars’ Spinoff Series

Lucasfilm recently revealed ten new “Star Wars” projects at their Disney Investors day coming to Disney+ in the near future (11 when you add the belatedly announced “The Book Of Boba Fett“), but a fairly significant update to one of them has been quietly unveiled.

Today, during Disney’s investor’s call, Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy revealed that an untitled Ahsoka Tano series is in development at Disney+. The news isn’t entirely a surprise— former CEO chief Bob Iger had already said spin-off shows from Lucasfilm’s “The Mandalorian” were being explored.

One of the dozens of projects teased during last week’s star-studded Disney Investors Presentation was the highly-anticipated “Star Wars” series, “Obi-Wan Kenobi.” The show has been in development for a long time now and sees Ewan McGregor reprise his role as the title character. However, after months of wondering what this series is going to be about, it sounds like maybe we’re beginning to get a better idea.
