Obi-Wan Kenobi: A Closer Look At the Inquisitor Highlights Three New Photos

Star Wars fans have been wanting a closer look at Disney Plus’s upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series ever since the trailer dropped. Thanks to the folks over at Total Film, we have three new images to pine over while we wait for the next tease.

Many have wondered exactly what Obi-Wan Kenobi was up to after he dropped a very young Luke Skywalker off on Tatooine, and the series aims to do just that. It follows Obi-Wan ten years after the end of Revenge of the Sith. These new photos give us a glimpse at Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan in both Tatooine and on the neon-lit planet of Daiyu.

We’ve heard from Hayden Christensen on the “surreal” experience of returning as Darth Vader. Darth Vader won’t be the only villain in the series Obi-Wan deals with, though. The final photo highlights the foreboding and sinister Grand Inquisitor, played by Rupert Friend. The Inquisitor is known to fans of the animated series Star Wars Rebels, but he’s far from the first animated Star Wars character to make the jump to live-action.

Inquisitors are Jedi-hunting assassins who work for Darth Vader. For a full rundown on these deadly villains, be sure to check out our Sith Inquisitors guide for the low down on who they are and how they fit into the Obi-Wan Kenobi series.

The first two episodes of Obi-Wan Kenobi premieres Friday, May 27 on Disney Plus.
