No because Maul doesn't know Kenobi is even alive until Rebels. He thought he was killed in Order 66.

Oh yeah, I didn't mean that they actually met each other in this series, but Maul is still around and could still show up somehow.

Showing him in Solo and the whole Crimson Dawn thing newer went anywhere because they stopped working on new spin-off movies, but I'm sure they're still trying to put Emilia Clarke in one of their Star Wars series.

That and the fact the Maul literally DIED right after Solo.

 

[Stitch]

Nah, Solo was 10 years before the battle of Yavin, Duel on Tatooine was 2 years before the battle of Yavin

Ewan got involved in 2015 when it was originally a movie. He explained to Ellen in 2019 how he had to lie about working on it for four years:



After the standalone movies were ended, the script was adapted to the six-episode mini-series. Deborah Chow was hired in 2019 to direct all six episodes and they spend two whole years (2019 and 2020) working on the scripts. They filmed it last summer/fall in LA.

While all that is fine and lovely, that doesn't change that my confidence in Disney Star Wars is shaky right now.

As said, I hope my concern is proven wrong. But I'm going in guarded.

My head canon:

 

[IDKFA]

No more Tatooine. Please, I'm fucking sick of that planet. There is a whole galaxy with billions of planets, yet we always end up on this god forsaken shit hole.

[PrimetimeKnight]

Please be good. Obi Wan Kenobi you're my only hope....for good Star Wars.

 

[Romulus]

It seems they used the natural aging process of McGregor over 17 years to show the wear and tear of a man reeling from war after 10 years. Not to mention the extremely harsh environment. Those factors would definitely accelerate aging and it looks believable.

 

[TheMan]

Excited for this. Pleeeeease dont' fuck this up Disney

 

[GymWolf]

It is really incredible how the last jedi killed any interest i had for the entire star wars saga or spinoff projects

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Hopefully, it won't be awful like everything else in modern Star Wars.

 

[The Cockatrice]

Five bucks says a Jedi Master will get his ass kicked by some random mercenary woman, lose his lightsaber, somehowe force weakened and have 70% of the episodes of him doing memes and acting pitiful. I hope I'm 100% wrong but I dont see this being good.

 

[K' Dash]

Please stop raping the corpse of Star Wars.

this is the only thing I wanted since Disney bought Star Wars, they can burn everything down if they want after this.

 

[BadBurger]

So it looks like Obi hides his lightsaber, possibly out of shame from losing. Jedi hunters begin to zero in on him on Tatooine, so he leaves, they follow. Probably a Jedi underground network (That symbol she finds on the wall)? I bet the climax will be during the next to final episode, when Kenobi finally fires up his saber again and gives that bitch the two-finger pointing stance.

No. She's going to turn back to the light side, and kill the head inquisitor. Obi Wan is going to fight Vader.

 

[ManaByte]

The Grand Inquisitor doesn't die until Rebels.

 

[PaddyOCanager]

The Grand Inquisitor doesn't die until Rebels.

Ah, I didn't realize that was him. Well, he kills her then.

 

[jason10mm]

Just did Galaxy's Edge at Disney.

The force is with me again!!!

 

[saintjules]

The seaon premiere has been pushed back to May 27th. The first two episodes will be available that day.

 

[Sybrix]

Glad we get 2 episodes on launch day

 

[Romulus]

I'm really curious about the feel of this. Understandably hearing the duel of fates and seeing McGregor gives me all sorts of prequel vibes, but I just hope this doesn't follow the formula of Boba Fett and turn into a desert slog. I can see them leaving out all the good shit for the last episode or two.

If the intent is to get folks to drag out their subscription for another month then that is EXACTLY what they want to do.

 

[BadBurger]

Me realizing we'd probably be midway through the series already if production had suffered just one less setback / re-write / re-casting / etc

Still over a month away. Alas.

There wasn't any re-casting.

 

[BadBurger]

There wasn't any re-casting.

Kind of. They were ready to start filming a few times, but then needs for rewrites prompted the casting of newly written roles, which retarded progress on the project.
