Obi-Wan Kenobi was supposed to be a trilogy of films, and that says a lot about the future of the series.

While fandom from star Wars still wondering if Obi-Wan Kenobi there will be a second season, there are more and more clues in this direction.

Ahead of the series’ premiere, we knew that Disney’s original plan was to make a movie about the legendary Jedi Master, not a Disney Plus series.

However, in an interview with TheDirectStuart Beatty, screenwriter of the first project, said that the idea was to develop the story throughout the trilogy of films. In fact, this was the project they convinced Disney to do in 2016, although it turned into a proposal for the small screen years later.

His intention was show Obi-Wan Kenobi’s height before entering the difficult stage that was discussed in the first trilogy of films star Wars. That is, from New Hope a return of the jedi.

“When I submitted my Obi-Wan story to Lucasfilm, I said, “There are actually three stories here. three different evolutions a character must make to go from Obi-Wan to Ben. The first was in the first movie, which later became a series with the theme of “surrender to the will of the Force,” he said.

Why is disclosure important? Part of the story Beatty picked up was respected in the first season of the series. Obi-Wan Kenobibut two more steps left. It is for this reason that everything points to the fact that sooner or later we will see at least one more season.

Obi-Wan Kenobi can answer the character’s biggest doubts

In fact, Beatty himself notes that his original design includes give context to transcendental situations in the character’s future. For example, the moment he ceases to exist – in his physical form – in the middle of a fight with Darth Vader in New Hope. To this day, this moment still leaves many questions, and the writer’s plan was to provide key information that would make the scene more meaningful.

“His [su muerte] it required prior acceptance that it was going to happen… It’s one of those universal things that we all struggle with, coming to terms with our own mortality. So for me it was the second step in his evolution that Obi-Wan now has to come to terms with his own mortality, like in a prophecy, or with Qui-Gon telling him “the time will come when you” you will have to sacrifice you forever,” and then Obi-Wan says, “How? No, no, no, no, I’m here to help… I can’t, no. And then take it to the point where Obi-Wan accepted the idea that he was going to die, and that he would do it willingly at the key moment, knowing when that moment would come.”

This may be one of the reasons why Obi-Wan Kenobi has a short but fascinating Cameo Qui-Gon Jin.And according to the scriptwriter’s statements, we could intuitively understand that in addition to new seasons Obi-Wan Kenobithe character of Liam Neeson will be fundamental,

Will Disney accept Beatty’s argument? Well, it’s a mystery, even though the first season did return to the origins of that story, albeit adapted to an episodic format. even his own Beatty is mentioned in the credits of some chapters..
