Plot details are being kept under wraps, but it is known that longtime Star Wars collaborator Dave Filoni is writing the series and exec producing with Jon Favreau.

Christensen famously played the future Vader in 2002’s Star Wars: Attack of the Clones and 2005’s Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith.

Fans went wild when it was announced at Disney’s investor day in December 2020 that the actor was returning to the role for Obi-Wan Kenobi, the live-action series starring Ewan McGregor.
