To celebrate Star Wars Day (May the Fourth be with you, etc), Lucasfilm has announced that a second trailer for Obi-Wan Kenobi will be released a little later on. We'll bring you the new footage as soon as it's online, but for now, we have a first look at some new promo art for the Disney+ series.
We've known for a while now that the show would feature a rematch between the legendary Jedi Master (Ewan McGregor) and his old friend turned bitter enemy Darth Vader, and this artwork spotlights what should be a lightsaber duel for the ages.
McGregor recently announced that Obi-Wan Kenobi will now premiere two days later than originally advertised on Friday, May 27, but the show will debut with a double-episode.
Set in between the events of the prequels and the original trilogy, the show will find Kenobi watching over a young Luke Skywalker on Tatooine. When the ruthless Sith Inquisitors arrive in search of surviving Jedi, Obi-Wan sets out on a new adventure which will bring him face-to-face with his former Padawan turned bitter enemy, Darth Vader (Hayden Christensen).
The cast also includes Joel Edgerton and Bonnie Piesse as Owen and Beru Lars, Moses Ingram, Kumail Nanjiani, Indira Varma, O’Shea Jackson Jr., Sung Kang, Simone Kessell, Benny Safdie and Maya Erskine.
