Production of a series for streaming service Disney + about the Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi really faced with large-scale problems, because of which the project will have to restart. This was reported by insiders The hollywood reporter.
Earlier Gamemag told a story about how the humorous fake in social networks about the cancellation of the series gradually transformed into real news, backed by insider plums. As a blogger and film critic told last week Grace Randolphbetween the actor Ewan McGregor and leadership Disney a conflict broke out, due to which the project release dates may be revised.
Now the information has been confirmed by numerous sources of The Hollywood Reporter. It turned out that the Disney + exclusive ended up in production hell. The reason for this was the story that the screenwriter was working on. Hussein Amini and the first in history “Star wars“female director Deborah Chow previously shot two episodes “Mandalorian“
They prepared the scripts for two series, but the quality of the material did not satisfy the studio management. As a result, all the developments were rejected. Lucasfilm is now looking for a new screenwriter. Chow is still attached to the project, but the number of episodes will be reduced from six to four.
Most surprisingly, problems with the script arose at such a late stage of creation: McGregor has already begun working with other actors in test scenes. One source claims that the story invented was too much like what we could see in the Mandalorian, only Obi-Wan acts instead of the bounty hunter, and instead Toddler Yoda – young Luke Skywalker and, perhaps, Leia Organa.
The series about Obi-Wan Kenobi was announced at the exhibition D23 2019, and the project was personally presented by the head of Lucasfilm Kathleen Kennedy and Ewan McGregor himself, who played a whole performance in front of the public. Filming was supposed to start in 2023.
