If you're one of the many Star Wars fans who has long hoped the Disney+ Obi-Wan Kenobi series would get a second season someday, you're not the only one. Jedi Master Kenobi himself, Ewan McGregor, would also love to see more stories featuring Anakin Skywalker's former teacher.
In a recent interview with Variety, McGregor said he would love to see more stories featuring Obi-Wan Kenobi in the Star Wars universe -- specifically between the end of the Obi-Wan Kenobi series and the start of A New Hope.
“Between where we ended off in the series and when Alec Guinness comes on screen with Luke Skywalker," he said, "I think there’s another few stories to tell in there.”
We have witnessed one Kenobi appearance in that time period already -- in the Star Wars Rebels episode "Twin Suns," featuring a final confrontation with Maul. But the more time that goes on, the less fans are convinced Kenobi really spent all that time on Tatooine watching over Luke Skywalker. Surely other things happened to him. (I'm a big fan of officially canonizing John Jackson Miller's 2013 Kenobi novel, but that's just me.)
The Disney+ series ends with Qui-Gon Jinn appearing to Kenobi for the first time as a Force Ghost, which opens up all kinds of possibilities about where a second season of the show could go. The show was originally billed specifically as a six-episode limited series, but that doesn't mean another spinoff or movie couldn't one day take form. The show was originally planned as a movie, after all -- things change.
McGregor has always loved playing Obi-Wan Kenobi and surely would not mind reprising the role another time (or many). But with the future of Star Wars TV so uncertain these days, who knows what the next five or ten years might look like in the franchise.
