Looks like those horrible rumors behind the Disney+ Obi Wan series being canceled had some truth to them after all.
The 48-year-old Doctor Sleep actor’s show was originally confirmed at the Disney+ presentation at D23 Expo last August.
The series is now on hold “indefinitely,” multiple sources report.
Collider first reported that the show had been delayed, sending crews home from Pinewood Studios in London, where they were getting ready to start shooting.
THR‘s sources cite the scripts and storyline as the reason for the temporary shutdown, adding that the show is being changed from six episodes to four.
The Mandalorian‘s Deborah Chow, Star Wars‘ first-ever female director, was set to helm.
The truth of the matter is, there just might not be much of a story to tell that hasn’t already been told via the animated Star Wars: Clone Wars and the animated Star Wars: Rebels which gave a fantastic final hurrah for Obi Wan when he faced Darth Maul for one final epic lightsaber fight:
What do you think? Is Obi Wan a series you want to see? Will we ever see it on Disney +? Let us know in the comments!
