Ranking Every Upcoming Star Wars Project - By Hype
1. The Obi-Wan Kenobi Series
Yes, after years of waiting, fans will finally get to witness the return of actor Ewan McGregor as our beloved Jedi meme Master. The series will begin filming this year, with an expected release date of early 2021.
By the time the series airs it will have been 16 years since fans last got to see Kenobi in the flesh, despite the character appearing in both The Clone Wars and Rebels animated shows. The rumours for the return of the original Jedi of the Star Wars franchise have been around ever since The Force Awakens went into production, but the show itself has only been in development for the last two years.
If you listen very carefully however you will be met by the sound of absolutely no one caring about the wait any longer, as with the exception of Darth Vader, Obi-Wan Kenobi is the most prominent character in the franchise, having appeared in SIX of the main films. You can bet any money that this year's Disney expo will provide some kind of first look at the new series, and will be sure to break the Internet thanks to the gushing of fans everywhere.
The hype is strong with this one indeed.
