STAR WARS: OBI-WAN KENOBI Anthology Movie Reportedly Set To Commence Production In Early 2019
It was recently announced that the long-rumored Obi-Wan Kenobi movie was officially in the works, & now we're hearing that Lucasfilm is readying the Star Wars spin-off for an early 2019 production start.
We recently got word that Disney and Lucasfilm were working on the Obi-Wan Kenobi movie we've been hearing about for years, and now we may have an idea of when the Star Wars spin-off is scheduled to commence production.
According to the guys over at Omega Underground - who tend to be fairly accurate with shoot dates - filming is set to begin at Pinewood Studios UK sometime in January of 2019, putting it on track for a 2020 release.
No plot details have been confirmed yet, but the story is expected to follow the Jedi master's adventures on Tatooine between the events of Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope.
Nor do we have word on whether Ewan McGregor will return as Kenobi, but the actor has repeatedly expressed interest in reprising the role so it's probably a safe enough bet.
