While there have been more than a few leaks about what's to come in Obi-Wan Kenobi, many details about the series have been successfully kept under wraps by Lucasfilm. 

Well, PromoBricksDE has shared some details about a number of upcoming LEGO sets based on the show, and even though we don't learn any major plot details, a couple of key characters finally have names. That mysterious droid spotted in the show's trailers has now been identified as Ned-B. He's believed to be on the site of the angels, working with the Rebel Partisans who help "Ben."

Indira Varma's Imperial officer also has a name: Tala Durith. It's previously been reported that she will defect to the Rebel Alliance in Obi-Wan Kenobi, but her importance beyond that is unclear at this stage. There had been some speculation she might be a love interest to the Jedi Master, but it's become apparent that's not the case, Perhaps we'll see her in future projects? (Andor would make sense)

As for what LEGO sets you can expect for Obi-Wan Kenobi, there will be one based on the Sith Inquisitors' Scythe Transport, and another that pits Obi-Wan against Darth Vader. Based on the description, it sounds very much like that confrontation will take place on Mustafar or a planet very much like it. Needless to say, that promises to be epic, and we can't wait for this epic rematch.

Obi-Wan Kenobi's story begins 10 years after the dramatic events of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith where the hero faced his greatest defeat - the downfall and corruption of his best friend and Jedi apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, who turned to the dark side as evil Sith Lord Darth Vader. 

The series stars Ewan McGregor, reprising his role as the iconic Jedi Master, and also marks the return of Hayden Christensen in the role of Darth Vader.

Obi-Wan Kenobi arrives on Disney+ with its first two episodes on May 27.
