Star Wars prequel trilogy star Ewan McGregor is apparently eager to make another season of the Obi-Wan Kenobi Disney+ series.
Speaking to Variety at Star Wars Celebration 2023, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy explained how the Obi-Wan actor (and the fans) might want another season, but it's not something the studio is considering just yet.
"That is not an active development," Kennedy said of Season 2. "But I never say never, because there’s always the possibility. That show was so well-received and [director] Deborah Chow did such a spectacular job.
"Ewan McGregor really wants to do another," she continued. "Everybody’s all hands on deck with what we’re doing right now, as you can see by what we showed everybody [at Celebration]. We’ll turn our attention to that again maybe down the road."
What Lucasfilm showed at Celebration was three new Star Wars films (including one starring Daisy Ridley as Rey Skywalker), a first look at the High Republic era-set The Acolyte show, and updates on Ahsoka, Skeleton Crew, and more.
Obi-Wan was therefore absent from the line-up (though there is a panel about the first season happening on April 9), but based on Kennedy's comments, it looks like there's some hope for those awaiting a follow-up.
In our 8/10 review of Season 1, IGN said: "Bookended by strong opening and closing chapters, Obi-Wan Kenobi bridges the gap between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope to satisfying effect."
