Disney+’s latest batch of Blu-ray home releases carries some disappointing news as the listing for Obi-Wan Kenobi‘s home release seemingly confirms the production as a limited series. The 2022 Disney+ series saw the return of Ewan McGregor as a disillusioned Obi-Wan during his Tatooine exile. Alongside McGregor and newcomers Moses Ingram, Indira Varma, and Kumail Nanjiani, Obi-Wan Kenobi also saw the return of Hayden Christensen as Darth Vader
Despite Obi-Wan Kenobi ending with the Jedi finding new hope, Disney+’s latest Blu-Ray announcements have hinted that viewers shouldn’t expect future seasons. While Moon Knight, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and Andor‘s listings specifically name them as first seasons, the 2022 series was listed as “The Complete Series.” Like WandaVision‘s home release, this suggests Obi-Wan Kenobi will remain a limited series.
This is a developing story…
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Obi-Wan Kenobi takes place 10 years after the events of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, which showed Anakin’s fall to the dark side and the rise of Darth Vader. Obi-Wan is hiding on Tatooine and watching over Luke Skywalker before Bail Organa recruits him to save a kidnapped Leia. With a confrontation with Darth Vader inevitable, Obi-Wan Kenobi tells the story of a man of a destroyed alliance fighting to protect the future. Ewan McGregor returns as his fan-favorite Star Wars character, as does Hayden Christensen as Darth Vader.
