    I have to disagree. I know that Ewen McGregor is a favorite for this project but they could always go with someone younger and do a story about his time as a padawan (which I think would be awesome) or they could use Ewen and de-age his face like they did with Tron Legacy. (Still more awesome).

    I get what your saying about Obi not being able to leave the planet much if they do an older version using McGregor as is, but if they go that route, they could absolutely make it a great movie. Obi wont be the only character in the movie. He could have supporting cast go off world while he stays on planet. Star Wars often uses multiple story lines that all tie up in the end with great effect.

    Men.... YOU - WON'T - BELIEVE - IT. :eek:

    (ps) Thanks @Kyle ... see you in the spoiler below ;)

    A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...




    STAR WARS

    THE LONESOME BEINGS

    Ten years now since the Empire got over the Republic. Everywhere
    in the Galaxy, its grasping fist has gradually tightened its vise. The
    rare Jedi Knights who had survived Order 66 have been merciless
    hunted by Darth Vader and his 501° Legion, the deadly Vader’s Fist.

    Exiled on Tatooine, a remote planet in the Outer Rim, former
    Jedi Knight Obi Wan Kenobi lives in exile. Under his custody, the hope
    for a better future is softly growing, by the overheating
    twin suns blinding light.

    Far from everything, Ben ignores he is not the only Jedi yet who
    survived the Great Purge. Another one lives, who has conceived
    a desperate plot to assassinate the Emperor - but one major
    pitfall still remains on his roadmap : Darth Vader. This is why this
    Jedi just landed on Tatooine, to convince Ol’Ben to help him
    in his chase.




    PAN across the starfield, following a meteorite that is leading to an OCHER-COLORED planet that appears on screen. The meteorit DIVES RIGHT towards the planet with an INCREASING SPEED. It starts to BURN as it enters the atmosphere, mysteriously but undoubtly ATTRACTED by a large smudge visible near the surface. A TRAIL OF SMOKE forms at the backend of the meteorite, as it plunges FASTER AND FASTER towards the center of the smudge. In its train, we enter a vast SANDSTORM, then BRUTALLY LAND on the sandy surface of the planet, the meteorit touching the ground then exploding RIGHT IN FRONT of us. We are in…

    EXT. - VAST SANDY PLAIN SWEPT BY SANDSTROM – DAY.

    SOFTLY ROARING MUSIC punctued with long-spaced beats. PAN across the plain and the HOWLS of the storm. ZOOM on a familiar brown-hooded lonely silhouette who hardy walks against the sandstorm, slowly moving from left to right. He's BEN KENOBI. We HOLD ON him now, and as the focus approaches, TRAVELLING-AROUND to place the viewer BEHIND him. MUSIC GROWS as a distant CLIFF emerges from the tornado. The entry of a CAVE is guessed through the gusts of wind. Still seen from rear, BEN KENOBI stops for a while, trying to distinguish something inside the cave. Then starts walking again towards the entry, as the camera REMAINS where he stood. MUSIC reaches a PAROXYSM as we...

    CUT TO BLACK. SILENCE.

    The distant rumor of a tavern then dawns, over the music of a CANTINA BAND. FADE IN on a very close bluish face, at first extremely BLURRY, quickly becoming CLEARER.

    INT. – TATOOINE CHALMUN’S CANTINA - DAY.

    A bluish humanoid form, surmounted by an enormous rounded hat, is kneeling above a green Rodian lying on the floor. This is bounty-hunter CAD BANE. LAUGHS of the audience are heard over the MUSIC BAND. FAMILIAR voice OFF:

    HAN SOLO
    Cad Bane! It seemed to me I recognized the shape of your
    hat over these badly washed faces here down!

    CAD BANE gets up with a calculated slowness and turns to the camera. Audience shuts up, captivated. TRAVELLING to embrace both Cad Bane and Han Solo, CHEWBACCA standing close behind him.

    HAN
    Still being such a smartass to impress the audience! What
    happened to this poor Greedo?

    CAD BANE
    Han Solo. Speaking of a smartass, the last time I saw you,
    you were getting thrown out from the Royale Casino out
    there, on Corellia.

    CLOSE-UP on Cad’s face. He nods.

    CAD (CONT’D)
    You, and your carpet.

    CUT to CAD’S POINT OF VIEW, facing Han Solo and Chewie. Chewie MOAN-TALKS.

    HAN (to Chewie)
    Keep calm, Chewie. He doesn’t even know what he’s
    talking about.

    HAN (to Cad) (CONT’D)
    They fired me because I was to hit the jackpot. And
    Gordo Fela would not bear to owe money to Han Solo.

    CAD
    Yup. Tell that to Fela’s Club.




    FOOTNOTE #1 BY BOB IGER: About the title The Lonesome Beings. Can apply both to ol'Ben and also the bounty hunters (lonesome by nature) that roam across the GFFA. The title also subtly reminds us the "lonesome cowboys", as the third spinoff will clearly be a "starwarsy" western, because all we need for that is on Tatooine: the desert landscape, the underwolrd, the mafia, the outlaws, the gangsters and the bounty-hunters, races on motojets, and Tuskens ambushes like Indians did.

    FOOTNOTE #2 BY daRinze: Of course, it is fake. All of it. Huge thanks to @Kyle who offered me on a golden plate the beginning of the movie in his OP ;) and hope you liked that

    They shouldn't have a problem doing an Obi-Wan story away from Tattoine. There have been EU (sorry, "Legacy") stories of his post-Republic time on other worlds. The writers can't use their imaginations?

    The amount of stories could be vast - Obi Wan film could potentially have many arcs stolen from the expanded EU. He could have run in's with the odd ageing Jedi who survived Order 66 and have hidden or renounced the old ways to survive, (I actually think the dialogue would be pretty amazing...enter Master Vos? ). I'm sure Bail Organa will appear too, (he loves a cameo) - linking the prequels is essential to the film's success in the wider universe.

    I imagine just like RO, similarly it will tie in at the end to his time on Tattoine, watching over Luke ready for Star Wars to begin.

    It could be that "old Ben" takes a young pre-teen Luke with him on some sort of mission, and Uncle Owen has words with Ben after it is all over. This would lead to why Owen distrusts Obi Wan in such a way. And to protect Luke perhaps Obi Wan removes the memory from Luke's mind. The fact that Force wielders can do this would open up a lot of story potential. This could be where Obi Wan decides it is time to begin Luke's training, but it goes horribly wrong and Luke nearly dies. It could be interesting.

    For all we know the Obi Wan movie could be set during the Clone Wars, Ewan has aged wonderfully and it wouldn't take much to make him look like he did in RotS. You could have Hayden cameo, and maybe give Sam Jackson a supporting role since he is always wanting to return. This would also allow for a live action debut of Ashoka, and allow Temuera to play the clones with personality like in TCW.

    I would love for an Obi-Wan movie to happen! He was the best thing about the Prequel Trilogy!

    I feel like they could be doing other movies... I mean we basically know what Obi-Wan did while he was on Tattooine I feel like they could make other movies about other characters that we barely know about

    It would be good if they use this opportunity to fix this plot hole (which was created when the prequels were made):

    My ideal Obi-Wan movie would start with flashbacks to his young years as a youngling at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Focus should be on his relation with Qui-Gon.

    Then, we'd see Obi-Wan grow up in a series of shots from different time periods, all the way through Qui-Gon's death, taking Anakin as his padawan and then fighting together with him in the Clone Wars until Anakin's ultimate demise at the end of ROTS. Qui-Gon's voice should be heard echoing in his head throughout this time period.

    Then the TITLE would show up, in similar fashion to Rogue One's title, and we'd be introduced to an exiled Obi-Wan on Tatooine.

    I had previously on this thread discussed how I would love an Obi Wan trilogy with the second part being Obi Wan's trails to become worthy of the force ghosthood. I have recently rewatched the Clone Wars and wanted to add more detail to that idea.

    The movie would open with Obi Wan on Tatooine watching over Luke, who is only like 3 or 4 at this point. Obi Wan would pretty much look like he did in RotS but maybe a little more grey on his temples. We would hear Qui Don's voice telling Obi Wan he must begin his training and Obi Wan agrees, we see him go to the Lars homestead. He tells Owen that he will be gone and he doesn't know for how long. Owen is an ass and says something like "Good and I hope you don't return." Obi Wan tries to give him Anakin's lightsaber in case he doesn't return but Owen becomes furious at Obi Wan. We see Obi Wan leave Tatooine in some ship and he goes off on Qui Don's directions. Obi Wan would reach that planet where Yoda went to and meet the force priestesses, they would begin to speak about the force and stay some very ambiguous cryptic stuff. They direct Obi Wan to a floating island off in the distance where they will test if he is worthy.
    Obi Wan would explore for a bit and be confronted (like Yoda was) by a shadow/dark side version of himself. A brief fight would ensue before Obi Wan realizes not to fight and he meditates, shadow-Wan would try to kill him but be unable to. Obi Wan would declare that he will not let his dark side consume him yada yada yada, Shadow is defeated. Priestess say more cryptic blast but say he is worthy. They direct him to Moraband.
    Obi Wan lands on Moraband and beings to explore the remains of a Sith temple. He approaches a crypt and (like with yoda) a vision of Darth Bane appears talking about the powers of the Dark Side and whatnot. Shadows would start to swirl all around Obi Wan as Bane says something like "Many Sith you have faced, and you have prevailed...but now you are alone, how do you think you'd fare?" The shadows begin to take form: Darth Maul (Sam Witwer in live action), Count Dooku (what they did with Tarkin in R1), Asajj Ventress and Savage Oppress (be cool to finally see them in live action), and finally Anakin (as he appeared in RotS). A spectacular fight would commence with Obi Wan fighting the different Sith with different styles, one by one they'd fall leaving only Anakin. Obi Wan refuses to fight him (revealing all the guilt he has about Anakin). Anakin would then begin to shake and his skin would crack and break, Vader would emerge under the skin (think the nightmare in the Watchman when Nite Owl and Silk Spectre ripped their skin to reveal their suits). Obi Wan would accept his part in everything and fight Vader. Badass fight unlike anything in Star Wars would unfold. Obi Wan would strike Vader down declaring to Bane that these phantoms will not defeat him. Suddenly the scenery would change to the Jedi temple where everything is peaceful and tranquil like Yoda he's stumble into a gathering of Jedi. Bring back Samuel Jackson, Hayden, Liam Neeson, Frank Oz, and all the other Council jedi plus a jedi version of Dooku. Obi Wan will spend some time there being happy before realizing that it is wrong and that everyone there should be dead, the nightmare begins to fold all around him (like Inception) and he's wake up this time in the Jedi council chambers. Qui Gon would be there but notably older, with grey/white hair. Obi Wan confused asks who he is, Qui Gon says, "I am Qui Gon Jinn... well I would be the him that lived had you not failed." Qui Gon would get more and more aggressive as he speaks. "If you hadn't been weak enough to be knocked down and if you hadn't been so slow that I had to fight Maul myself then this is the me that would exist. But you failed Obi Wan just like you failed Anakin and just as you will fail Luke." Obi Wan closes his eyes telling himself "I know I have made mistakes but I will not fail Luke" He opens his eyes and realizes he is back with the force priestesses who proclaim that he is now ready to train. Obi Wan thanks them and leaves.
    Obi Wan os back in his hut on Tatooine sitting in meditation when we hear Qui Gon say he is proud of Obi Wan and they begin training. The movie would end with Obi Wan watching from a distance as Luke is playing in front of the setting twin suns.
    Throughout the movie, in between the major events, Qui Gon would be talking to Obi Wan.

    Has Ewen made any kind of statement after the article? Haven't been able to find anything online.

    I wonder if they are waiting because of a TLJ connection.

    They are probably waiting until after Solo has been released. I really hope it is an Obi wan spin off as he was always my favourite character (the part of me that is a Rey Kenobi fan definitely wants it).

    My ideal Obi-Wan movie would start with Ewan wandering through Mos Eisley like Caine in Kung Fu ending up at the cantina.The music will be arranged by the RZA as he did for Kill Bill.
