Most terrifying Jedi of them all :( /KrfF3JDPm9- Votto MVP 2022 ⚾️ June 8, 2022 Well we saw that they had Pablo-Jill there. While this isn't the live-action debut that fans might have hoped for, it's still bittersweet to see fan favourites like Tera finally acknowledged in more mainstream fare like this. He's actually Tera Sinube, a Jedi Master who last appeared in The Clone Wars animated series. This curious-looking fellow isn't Jar Jar at all. And while many bodies are discovered, including a youngling who will now remain forever young, Ben is most surprised to find the corpse of Jar Jar Binks floating in a transparent orange casket.Įxcept, that's wishful thinking, sorry. But this week, episode four also ventured deeper into the realms of horror with a gruesome discovery hidden deep within Fortress Inquisitorius, an Imperial underwater base that's located on the moon Nur.Īround 19 minutes into the episode, Obi-Wan stumbles across what appears to be a tomb. Much of that is down to Obi-Wan's despair over Anakin and the tortured dynamic he shares with Darth Vader. But no, the show itself has been growing darker and darker with each passing week, noticeably more than most other Star Warsprojects released in recent memory. Well, not Obi-Wan himself, although Ben is looking a little worse for wear these days, mentally speaking. It's official: Obi-Wan Kenobihas turned to the Dark Side. But yeah, that scene was a big one.Obi-Wan Kenobi episode 4 spoilers follow. We really opened up our dialogue, which then continued into Episode III. I felt that scene was pivotal in my relationship with him as well, in terms of how we spoke about the work and the character. George walked over to me and we had a really nice heart-to-heart conversation. We tried it one way, and I didn't quite feel like I was connecting with it. I had conversations with George about the degree of his angst and emotional state, and trying to find it. "When we were rehearsing it, we tried it a few different ways.
"We all understood that it was an important scene for this character and for his arc," he recalled. One of the most crucial character-defining scenes of AOTC was one that found Anakin showing off his rage and making sense of his sorrow and remorse, in his gut-wrenching confession to Padmé ( Natalie Portman) about the death of his mother at the Tusken camp and his brutal act of revenge. Obi-Wan Kenobi will be exclusively available on Disney+ from May 27.
So I had a lot that I was drawing from, and then, of course, everything he's going through in the story." LONDON, ENGLAND – MAY 12: Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor attend the photocall for the new Disney+ limited series "Obi-Wan Kenobi" at the Corinthia Hotel on in London, England. I was very cognizant of the performance that Jake Lloyd gave, and wanting it to feel like it really was just an older version of that kid, to some of the nuances and mannerisms of Darth Vader, wanting that transition to have some context as well, and to his children, Luke and Leia, and for that lineage to feel convincing. I really wanted that to feel authentic and have as much continuity as possible. "And for me, one of the aspects of Star Wars that I found really compelling was the generational aspect of it. There were a lot of elements that needed to cohere," he said. You had all of these elements, and where he was in his life and what that life was, and how all that would have affected him. This was a character that had a family, children that had grown up. I was playing a part that was already played before me, as well as after me.

He put the Star Wars soundtrack on, and we had this whole imaginary lightsaber duel around our apartment, jumping on all the furniture and just screaming like giddy little children." Darth Vader (Hayden Christensen) in Lucasfilm's OBI-WAN KENOBI, exclusively on Disney+. He was a big Star Wars fan too, and he had the soundtrack to Episode I. My response was, I lit up an imaginary lightsaber. He was aware that I was waiting for this call, and he saw my smile and immediately understood that there was good news. I recall walking out after I got off the phone, just sort of stunned and in disbelief by the news, walking into the living room where my roommate was. "I was still in bed, actually, in my apartment in Vancouver at the time. "I remember when I got the phone call saying that I got the part," Christensen said.
