We’ve known for a few weeks that the new Star Wars mini-series “Obi-Wan Kenobi” starring Ewan McGregor as the Jedi Master will start on Disney+ on May 25, 2022. Now Disney has released a teaser trailer showing the first scenes from the series.
Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi reunites with McGregor, who starred in Star Wars Episodes I, II and III. According to the creators, the story told in the series begins around ten years after the events of “Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith” ( available here on Disney + ). Darth Vader is also in the party. Hayden Christensen plays the Black Lord Anakin Skywalker transformed into in Star Wars: Episode III. Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi meets young Luke Skywalker and must protect him.
Darth Vader is not shown in the 100-second teaser trailer itself, but he can be heard. But of course McGregor can be seen and some lightsaber-wielding Jedi hunters. We don’t want to reveal more, just take a look for yourself:
The teaser trailer is very well received by fans. Within a few hours, the clip had already been viewed more than 6.1 million times and received over 385,000 positive ratings. Some comments on Youtube:
Absolute goosebumps when the music starts. I’m so looking forward to it.
“Between darkness and defeat, hope survives” This trailer couldn’t have described itself better.
I love Vader’s breath at the end. I can barely wait for it!
“The fight is over. We lost.”: It’s heartbreaking to hear the pain in his voice. Everything he fought for has been destroyed and his best friend has turned to the dark side.
Hopefully, in an absolutely dark time, we’ll see a glimmer of hope.
Finally, after so many years, we’re getting a true sequel to Revenge of the Sith!
That’s what Obi-Wan Kenobi is about
Specifically, Disney + reveals so much about “Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi”:
