Obi-Wan Kenobi
Although I was previously sadden thatObi - Wan Kenobiultimately became a goggle box show and was n’t a trilogy of flick as plan , I ’ve come to realize that it is so much better forStar Warsthat this change was made . Obi - Wan Kenobiis one of several recentStar Warsshows that were to begin with movies . InObi - Wan Kenobi’scase , this really would have meant another story only , asthe dispute Obi - Wan Kenobi trilogyhad a completely different plot than the show .
The trilogy , which would have been written by Stuart Beattie , was going to see Obi - Wan encounter Anakin Skywalker / Darth Vader again , but in the picture show , he would have consider Anakin was capable to return to the weak side of the Force . This was base on the comment Obi - Wan made to Luke Skywalker inA New Hopethat he had once believed Anakin could be redeemed , which obviously never happen in the prequel trilogy . While this construct has some merit , an Obi - Wan Kenobi trilogy would have been all wrong forStar Wars .
An Obi-Wan Kenobi Trilogy Would Have Been Too Much
There Are Already Complaints About A Possible Season 2
While it confessedly would have been compelling to see Obi - Wan have religion in his former Padawan — and given Ewan McGregor more filmdom time , which is always a confirming — a trilogy betweenStar Wars : Episode III - Revenge of the SithandA New Hopewould have been too much . TheStar Warsfanbase was already dissever on whetherObi - Wan Kenobiwas a good melodic theme , as many feel the franchise needed to research other stories rather than continue to focus on the Skywalker Saga ’s main eccentric .
Even now , there is discourse regarding whether arumoredObi - Wan Kenobiseason 2would be a good estimation . For some viewer , Obi - Wan Kenobialready provided some interesting new brainstorm into this stop intheStar Warstimeline , particularly regarding Obi - Wan ’s life in expatriate on Tatooine , and perfectly set upA New Hope . While I call up , as Ewan McGregor does , there is more possible left to explore in a possible season 2 , including withthe Hidden Path , a second season does execute the risk of being overkill .
The mention of Quinlan Vos in the Obi - Wan Kenobi set up a thrilling chance to explore the character ’s history with the dark side of the Force .
IfObi - Wan Kenobiseason 2 is possibly overkill , though , an entire Obi - Wan trilogy would have been so much unsound . Obi - Wan ’s story betweenRevenge of the SithandA New Hopeis primarily meant to show Obi - Wan in concealing , so much so that he tells Luke he has n’t heard the name Obi - Wan in a very recollective time . While that could of course be Obi - Wan excuse this from a sure point of view again , it does make sensation give everything the original trilogy reveals . A trilogy would doubtless have been a major retcon , which would have caused significant contestation .
IfObi - Wan Kenobiseason 2 is possibly overkill , though , an entire Obi - Wan trilogy would have been so much spoilt .
Star Wars DOES Have To Move On
Seeing Obi-Wan’s Story Continue Is Thrilling, But An Entire Trilogy Would Have Felt Stuck In The Past
I ’m of the judgment thatStar Warsmovies and TV showsdon’t have to alone abandon the prequel trilogy characters or the Skywalkers in cosmopolitan . This has been a relatively salient argument in the fanbase ( even though new ideas also cause backlash ) . However , even I have to admit thata trilogy entirely dedicated to Obi - Wan in the Dark Times would have revealed that the enfranchisement is too tie to this era and these stories .
Star Warsis well aware that these characters still sell , as they have continued to come along in numerous project after the prequels — many of which are n’t directly link to the Jedi or the Skywalkers . Despite that continued popularity , the dealership must show it can have success beyond them . At present , that has n’t incisively been shown . The intense negative reply to theStar Warssequel trilogy and indicate likeThe Acolytesuggest that , often , Star Warshas struggled to successfully proffer something new .
The enfranchisement must prove it can have success beyond them .

This is exactly what would have made the Obi - Wan trilogy all wrong . It would have made this issue all the more pervasive by suggestingStar Warscontinues to be about Obi - Wan and Anakin / Vader . Obi - Wan Kenobiis the perfect amount of nostalgia , without feeling all - eat .
Obi-Wan Season 2 Has Plenty Of Promise—And More Wiggle Room
Ewan McGregor’s Hints About Season 2 Reveal How Much Better The Show Is Than A Trilogy
It seemsObi - Wan Kenobiseason 2 , if it happens , could admit a Clone Wars discharge , no doubt add Christensen and McGregor back together again . certainly , the trilogy could have done something with this idea in flashback , but as a show , Obi - Wan Kenobican dive so much deeper into a full discharge without disrupt an overarch tale menses . While I would have loved to see Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen back together again on the big cover , I ’ve realized I ’m so gladObi - Wan Kenobiwasn’t a full trilogy inStar Wars .
