This is most definitely the Star Wars show we’re looking for. Capping months of anticipation, Lucasfilm dropped the first teaser for Obi-Wan Kenobi, the upcoming Disney+ series that brings Ewan McGregor back to George Lucas’s far, far away galaxy for the first time since 2005’s Revenge of the Sith. And McGregor isn’t the only actor reprising their role from the prequel trilogy: Hayden Christensen will be back (in black) as Kenobi’s wayward Padawan-turned-Sith Lord, Anakin Skywalker aka Darth Vader. Christensen doesn’t appear in the minute-and-a-half long trailer, but Vader’s presence is definitely felt … and heard. (Watch the trailer above.)
In contrast to his friend-turned-foe, Kenobi is doing everything in his power to remain unseen and unheard. One of the few survivors of Emperor Palpatine’s genocidal Order 66, Obi-Wan has sought refuge in the wastelands of Tatooine, where he watches over a small moisture farm from afar — a moisture farm where a new hope for the galaxy is growing up. “The fight is done,” Kenobi says in voiceover. “We lost. Stay hidden.”
