‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’: look at Hayden Christensen training and more new photos

Vanity Fair has published a very long article about the future of Star Wars on TV, accompanied by new promotional pictures of the upcoming shows. Here is Darth Vader actor Hayden Christensen training with Ewan McGregor’s stunt double Ross Khonstam for Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Before showing the other pictures, here are some interesting quotes from the article about Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Hayden Christensen: “A lot of my conversations with [director Deborah Chow] were about wanting to convey this feeling of strength, but also coupled with imprisonment. There is this power and vulnerability, and I think that’s an interesting space to explore.”

Deborah Chow: “For me, across the prequels, through the original trilogy, there’s a love-story dynamic with [Obi-Wan and Anakin/Vader] that goes through the whole thing. I felt like it was quite hard to not [include] the person who left Kenobi in such anguish in the series. I don’t know how you could not. I don’t think he ever will not care about him. What’s special about that relationship is that they loved each other.”
