Since it was revealed that Disney/Lucasfilm planned to make a Star Wars movie every year, interspresing the continuation of the ‘main’ storyline with looks at other aspects of a galaxy far, far away, there’s been a lot of speculation about what those expanded universe will be. We’ve already had Rogue One, next year Han Solo’s getting his own spin-off, and they’re also working on Yoda and Boba Fett movies.
Now it’s been confirmed that one of the other major figures from Star Wars is getting a film made about their earlier days – Obi-Wan Kenobi. Deadline reports that it’s early days on the movie, but they’re already talking to Stephen Daldry about directing, who would then help guide the movie through the scripting and production process.
At the moment it’s not known what part of Kenobi’s life the movie might cover, although the speculation is that it will return to his very early days, possibly during his time at the Jedi academy. However, it might end up something completely different.
