Ewan McGregor Says Lucasfilm ‘Exploring’ OBI-WAN KENOBI Season 2 Ideas, Wants to Wear CLONE WARS Armor

As a devoted Star Wars fan who has witnessed the epic journey of Obi-Wan Kenobi through the prequels and Clone Wars, I eagerly await the possibility of a second season. Ewan McGregor‘s ardent desire to don the Clone Wars era armor once more is a beacon of hope for fans like me who long for more adventures with our favorite Jedi Master.


Obi-Wan Kenobi, portrayed by Ewan McGregor, Hayden Christensen, and Liam Neeson, has returned to the distant galaxy. However, it remains uncertain if Lucasfilm will produce another season. McGregor hinted that Disney is contemplating options for a second season of Obi-Wan Kenobi. As of now, we’re unsure about any specific plans. But if there is a second season, McGregor expressed his desire to wear his character’s armor from the Clone Wars era in it. In layman’s terms, he wants to reprise his Star Wars role again.

At this year’s Los Angeles Comic-Con (as reported initially at GamesRadar and available for viewing above at the 1 hour, 30 minute mark), Ewan McGregor expressed his desires for more than just appearing in Obi-Wan Kenobi season two during a live appearance. When asked about what else he’d like to do as Obi-Wan Kenobi, McGregor mentioned, “I’d quite fancy donning that armor… from The Clone Wars,” he said. “I believe that would be something I’d enjoy.

Given the enthusiasm from the audience (excluding one exception), many people there would likely appreciate it too. McGregor admitted that returning to that time period would certainly present a significant challenge. He’d need to appear much younger, which might involve shaving off his beard or sporting some sort of markings on his face for three months so Lucasfilm could digitally de-age him for season two of Obi-Wan Kenobi. However, he expressed a willingness to do it, regardless: “I’ll do it, I don’t care.” This is because it would provide another opportunity for a reunion with his co-star from the prequels. “That way, Hayden and I can really reunite,” McGregor said, drawing loud applause.

He also mentioned that there are likely other intriguing tales to uncover between the end of the first season of Obi-Wan Kenobi and the era portrayed by Alec Guinness in the Star Wars movies, and he could potentially have the opportunity to delve into these stories further in a potential second season of Obi-Wan Kenobi. Additionally, when discussing a possible second season, he hinted at an unexpected reveal about possibly donning his Jedi robes again by stating, “We’re definitely considering…I believe, examining that, might be the term to use.

Exploring” is significantly different from “it’s definitely happening,” that much is true. However, it’s a crucial move towards the possibility of season two. But if he agrees to sport spots on his face for three months, we can be certain that Obi-Wan Kenobi himself won’t be the only factor hindering the show from returning for another season.
