I checked, and there was no thread for this show. The show’s official twitter was activated and Ewan is on the last print issue of Entertainment Weekly. The show starts streaming on Disney+ on May 25, 2022.

Hello there.

Surprised to hear its a limited series rather than a drama. Good Emmy chances for the show and Ewan McGregor.

Not that I necessarily think Obi-Wan was going to be good, but McGregor might have set himself up with this comment:

Oh…no. When are they going to learn this comment is not a positive reflection of a TV show?

With this and all the “you’ll recognize so many things!!” nostalgia-bait comments my hopes are not high.

I love Star Wars and I’ll totally watch this but I have to be honest, the fact that they’ve chosen that date and to run in 2023 (after knowing how Loki has performed with an early release date) doesn’t fill me with massive confidence on the Emmys side.

Yeah, I was looking forward to this but after the disappointment of Book of Boba Fett my hopes have been severely diminished. Hayden Christensen was always a major negative for me, but then Rupert Friend also looked god-awful as the Inquisitor in that trailer I saw, and now this “TV as a long movie” comment BS.

Anyone watch this yet?

Is this going to be a Emmy contender?

We’re in 2022 and still hating Hayden’s acting? Is this 2005?

I watched the first episode it was excellent. I don’t if this will placed in limited series or drama as far as the Emmys are concerned.

I can see it sneaking in a best direction nomination and also clean up the tech categories.

There are really no big acting moments. I don’t see any acting nominations for now

I only watched all Star Wars movies a couple of years ago. Hayden’s acting is truly bad, but he’s so handsome. And he’s turned into one hot daddy. I don’t care about his acting, I wanna give birth to his babies.

Hayden was good in Life as a House. He even had strong Oscar buzz for that performance.

He was also good in Shattered Glass.
