In this Star Wars News update, we talk about the Kenobi series and a new leak. We see costumes which are similar to what Ewan McGregor wore in recent set-leaks. Some say it’s for the Cassian Andor series but they’re most likely linked to Tatooine in the aftermath of the events of Revenge of the Sith. We also talk about whether Cad Bane will appear in the Book of Boba Fett where Temuera Morrison and Ming-Na Wen as Fennec Shand will feature. After Cad Bane faced Hunter and Omega in the Bad Batch Episode 8 «Reunion», it’s likely that an unfinished Clone Wars arc by Dave Filoni will appear. Cad Bane will likely take the force-sensitive Omega to Kamino. We also talk about the similarities between the Bad Batch and the Mandalorian – especially with Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and Grogu (Baby Yoda).
Recently to do with Kenobi, Indira Varma was been seen on set as an Imperial officer for Palpatine and the Empire. It was previously speculated that she would be Asajj Ventress, an Imperial Inquisitor or someone else but now we have confirmation. We also know that Hayden Christensen will reprise his role as Darth Vader and Anakin Skywalker (in flashbacks). It’s not known if George Lucas had any input into the show but the Lucasfilm and Disney+ live-action Star Wars series comes out in 2022. The show-runner is Deborah Chow. Hopefully, we get more big characters like Qui-Gon Jinn in force-ghost form, voiced by Liam Neeson even though he denied it.
