Jedi robes, though, are farmer's robes.

He knew that Luke was coming and put those on all special-like just for him. Probably the one who tipped off the Imperial Forces on Beru and Owen too, just to make sure Luke wouldn't be tied down.

Farmers of the force. Swords into ploughshares.

The dark side of the force is brown. The light side, beige

I wonder if they will bring in the Wookie Bountyhunter for this show? THAT would be cool. the best part about this show, is there are so many cool ways to go with it.

The new black series Luke (medal awards outfit) comes with a couple of accessories.

One of them is a book. Obi wans journal.

Could be cool to open the series that way. Have Luke reading our adventures. Stuff and stories and lessons Ben left him.

“It’s a fucking massive relief,” he told Men’s Journal. “Because for four years, I’ve been having to lie to people about it.” Now that McGregor’s Jedi cat is out of his Jedi bag, what else is he willing to share about the highly-anticipated series?

“The storyline sits between Episode III and Episode IV.” Wait, what? Wow! Honestly, we were expecting McGregor to be a little more dodgy about it. But he’s ready to reveal that Obi-Wan’s Disney+ journey sits right between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. It’s fruitful dramatic ground for Kenobi — he just watched as his prized young Padawan annihilated the very system of Jedi law and order and turn into the embodiment of evil. Here’s what else McGregor has to say about the timeline:

He lied for four years. He knew for four years.

Of course they did. There was no way this movie wasn’t gonna be made. He’s the best actor of the franchise and still young and active in theater and film.

The Jedi Order was falling apart. It will be interesting to take a character we know in a way and show him—Well, his arc will be quite interesting, I think, dealing with that the fact that all the Jedi were slaughtered with the end of Episode III. It’s quite something to get over.

“Quite something to get over” is a bit of an understatement. Something that a particularly deadpan Sir Alec Guinness, the originator of the role, might say. And maybe that’s by design, as McGregor revealed he’s excited to “get closer and closer to how Obi-Wan felt while Alec Guinness was playing him. I feel like I’m grayer and nearer him in age, so it’ll be easier to do that.” You heard it here first, folks: McGregor’s new Obi-Wan is Jedi Zaddy.

McGregor also revealed the series will be six hour-long episodes, before stopping himself by saying, “I’m not allowed to tell you anything about it.” Mr. McGregor — you did in fact tell us things about it. And for that, we’re grateful, just like the legion of fans who enthusiastically greeted McGregor at D23: “I spent most of the ’90s wishing I’d been a rock star. I always felt it would be nice to know what that scream felt like. This is my version of that.”

I hope nobody will begrudge me this small moment of satisfaction.
This prick KNEW FOUR YEARS AGO he was gonna be Obi wan again.

This interview is from three years back and I remember posting it saying he’s lying and clearly lying.
This isn’t about me being right. I’m just happy it’s happening. the guy might be an amazing actor but he’s a terrible liar. As this interview shows.

I WAS RIGHT YOU SUCKERRRZZZ!!!!

I've seen it. I love that video. I remember watching it when they first posted it and thinking, just like you, that he was clearly hiding how far along they were in discussions. But what could he do?

I'm just so glad it's finally happening.
