2. Obi-Wan Sorts Through His Feelings

Obi-Wan’s early life as a Padawan to Qui-Gon and his death as well as his time fighting in the Clone Wars took a toll on him. One of the biggest gut punches he received was losing Anakin. Since the Obi-Wan series will take place eight years after this event, it would be awesome to see the famed Jedi Master sort out his feelings.

From what Ewan McGregor has said that Obi-Wan may have PTSD due to everything that happened in his life. So, there’s a possibility that we could see him struggle with what happened to Anakin and how he didn’t see what the Emperor was doing.

If it is true that Anakin is appearing in the series, flashbacks would be where he appears. Or if they can’t get Hayden Christensen back, they might use archival footage from Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. Another possibility is they could use unused footage like they did with The Rise of Skywalker to include Leia in the story.

Obi-Wan will also still be feeling the effects of what happened with Satine when Maul murdered her in front of him. If anything, Obi-Wan will probably feel the same way about not everything that happened with Ahsoka and her trial and expulsion. He may feel guilty about so many other things too and may realize that it’s too late to change the past.
