Despite the freeze of all Star Wars spin-offs, one of the most popular characters in the saga, Obi-Wan Kennoby, will still appear in one of the next movies in the series, most likely in the ninth episode. This is evidenced by the data of the British newspaper The Sun.

It is alleged that the role of Obi-Wan will again be played by Scottish actor Evan McGregor. How significant his patience will be in the movie, which director J.J. Abrams is going to shoot, is still unknown. We will remind that earlier it was reported that the failure of the movie "Han Solo: Star Wars. Stories" led to a significant adjustment of the plans of the studio Lucasmovie for the development of the Star Wars franchise. According to rumors, which have not yet been confirmed, studio head Kathleen Kennedy may be dismissed.

As for the ninth episode, it was originally planned to entrust it to director Colin Trevorrow, but in September 2017 he was dismissed, and his place was taken by the creator of the seventh episode, JJ Abrams. After that, Lucasmovie changed the movie's distribution schedule: instead of May 24, 2019, as previously planned, the movie will be released on December 20, 2019.
