8 Most Puzzling Moments In The Obi-Wan Kenobi Premiere
6. Is that...Flea?!
Picture the scene. A mysterious figure is stalking the young Princess Leia. The first time we see them, we only catch a glimpse of the back of their head. The next time, he stands directly in front of the Princess, the camera cuts to their profiles and...
"Flea? What are you doing here, you absolute mad lad?!"
We'll admit, mileage may vary on how immersion-shattering this moment was. For those (blasphemous) few unfamiliar with Flea's work with the Red Hot Chili Peppers, there would have been nothing wrong with this scene. For those of us who have been following the legendary bassist across his 30 year career, it was a little more off-putting.
This isn't Flea's first rodeo as an actor - he's actually been collecting bit-parts in films since the eighties - but the secrecy surrounding his cameo meant that when he appeared on-screen it jolted us right out of the show.
To be fair, this wasn't on the same level as Ed Sheeran appearing as basically himself in Game of Thrones - Flea actually plays his role fairly well - but it still had us chuckling in disbelief when we realised who Leia's mystery stalker was.
