While production on Ahsoka Season 2 is currently in its initial stages, the second installment has already received an exciting update hinting at the return of Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan Kenobi. While the series’ plot garnered a positive response from the audience, Hayden Christensen’s surprise cameo as Anakin Skywalker in the Season 1 finale quickly became the most talked about sequence. Current speculations seem to suggest that the sequel installment would contain similar moments from legacy Star Wars characters, particularly featuring McGregor’s legendary Jedi Master.
Ewan McGregor’s Obi-Wan Kenobi to return in Ahsoka Season 2
As per known internet scooper Kristian Harloff, Ewan McGregor will be making an appearance in Ahsoka Season 2. Aside from McGregor’s return, he also made claims regarding the comebacks of several other heavy-hitters of the Star Wars universe.
The Schmoes Know co-creator provided the said updates in a recent episode of The Kristian Harloff Show. While shedding light on what fans can expect from the upcoming edition of Ahsoka, Harloff stated, “Hayden Christensen has a pretty big role in Season 2. Ariana Greenblatt’s going to return as young Ahsoka. But I think the big news is that Ewan McGregor is going to be in it too.”
If Harloff’s speculations come out to be true, fans could see Ewan McGregor’s Obi-Wan Kenobi as a Force Ghost in Ahsoka Season 2, similar to how Christensen made his return in Season 1. However, with Ariana Greenblatt also rumored to reprise her role as young Ahsoka, the second installment in the series could feature a lot more flashback scenes from The Clone Wars than initially expected. This could mean that McGregor’s Kenobi might also have an extended role in Ahsoka Season 2.
That being said, no official word has come out regarding the cast of Ahsoka Season 2. The sophomore edition of the series is presently under development and does not have an official release date as of yet.
