hey how you doing guys and welcome to
another video so today we have some
pretty massive news coming out about the
obi-wan kenobi show including the
appearance of someone every single one
of you will be hyped about we also have
some big news about the soundtrack for
the show and the return of a legend to
possibly give us one final masterpiece
in the star wars universe so before we
get into the news make sure you hit the
subscribe button below to join the star
force and you'll get updates for every
single piece of obi-wan news law and
speculation the first major piece of
news that i want to mention before we
get to the absolutely huge story is that
john williams the legend and maestro
himself will be returning to star wars
obi-wan kenobi he'll apparently be
scoring at least the major themes for
the show but possibly the entire thing
for sure he's doing obi-wan kenobi's
character theme for the series which was
technically the originally the force
theme in a new hope but that kind of got
swapped either way the story comes from
variety which is as legit as it gets
meaning this one is definitely happening
there were also some rumors going around
saying that john williams was composing
with a full-scale orchestra for the
series but that's not totally confirmed
just yet all i can say is yes yes yes
the legend himself doing the score for
the biggest star wars tv show ever
produced is definitely going to be
awesome now moving on to the big story
of the day there have been some reports
of some major plot details for the show
including how a young princess leia will
play into the series pretty much
everyone knows that the only thing big
enough to get obi-wan to leave his
guardianship of luke on tatooine would
have to be leia getting into trouble and
according to these reports that is
exactly what will happen so before we
get into it these are just reports and
could be totally wrong but there is a
pretty good track record on this
particular website so the first part of
the situation is that leia organa is set
to be captured and taken prisoner near
the beginning of the series because leia
is a natural-born rebel she manages to
get herself into lots trouble around the
place even at this young age it appears
that the princess will be taken prisoner
at a spice den or a very dodgy cantina
and apparently the place will be filled
with a variety of both new and old
aliens think of something like the
coruscant underworld but one of the
lower levels where the spice dealing and
consumption goes on word of lay's
kidnapping will eventually reach obi-wan
forcing him into action his job is to
protect luke at all costs but
technically leia is also part of that
job the report also says that young leia
will be played by vivian lira blair who
you can see on screen now and it seems
to be backed up by quite a few sources
really interestingly it appears that the
grand inquisitor will be the man behind
the kidnapping plot masterminding the
operation and pulling the strings and we
also know from a few days ago that he
will be played by rupert friend the
grand inquisitor does this because he
knows of obi-wan's connection to the
organa family and hopes to lure him out
after hearing of the situation are
deeply panicked by logana then rushes
away from alderaan to tatooine and
enters obi-wan's quarters to beg him for
help surprisingly obi-wan doesn't yet
appear to have his hut instead he'll be
hiding out in a cave in some pretty
horrid conditions after obi-wan arrived
on tatooine at the end of revenge of the
sith he had nothing no money no
connections and nowhere to stay so he's
doing his best to survive by rummaging
through old and dark caves after this
kenobi of course accepts the mission
from bail and travels to the spice then
via public transport just like denjaran
did in the book of boba fett when he
arrived on tatooine because that was
also tatooine you can probably bet that
that will be the exact same transport
definitely a nice little connection
there if that does end up happening
obi-wan then arrives at the spy stand
and as you can probably guess manages to
get leia out of trouble and that's
pretty much where the report ends they
also do say that this is not the whole
series and the obi-wan will be getting
up to much more as we go on which is
awesome to hear i really hope we get to
explore obi-wan's mind and his
connection and training with qui-gon
throughout his exile we already have
some major hints towards it in a certain
point of view books so this is the
perfect place to explore that more now
after this the report also states that
kumao nanjani's character which was
revealed a long long while back now
would be someone very closely connected
to bail organa likely a contact or an
agent or maybe even a fulcrum agent like
ahsoka and cassie and andor were the
report says that he plays an absolutely
huge role one that will be very
important for the series so that gets me
very hyped as i absolutely can't wait to
see where things go for him and if he is
a fulcrum agent that could even later
tie in with the endor show now this news
just came in right as i was recording so
this is actually breaking news there are
now reports that the inquisitor played
by moses ingram the third sister
actually has a name and that name is
hugely connected to the old republic
character that we all love their name
being river a clear connection to darth
revan according to this breaking report
river will be the most brutal inquisitor
we've ever seen chopping hands off of
civilians and just generally trying to
prove herself to darth vader just like
all of the other inquisitors she was a
former member of the jedi order herself
and turned on them in the dying days of
the clone wars apparently we'll even go
as far as to see an order 66 flashback
scene showing however betrayed the jedi
order i'm guessing inside of the jedi
temple if that ends up being true she
might even end up being the one who
stole grogu from the jedi temple along
with barrosofi if that is the case
barris could still be an inquisitor just
like so many of us have speculated ever
since star wars rebels the seventh
sister is definitely not barasovi it's a
completely different character from the
same species but ever since she showed
up on screen so many fans have thought
that she was the seventh sister
barasothi but that's not the case just
to be clear i have a full video about
the grogu barous office theory which you
can see in the pinned comment or the end
cards so with all of this information
just coming in it's pretty clear that
the obi-wan show is going to be massive
the biggest show ever in star wars tv
history so may 25th which is the
confirmed release date for the show is
so fitting the 45th anniversary of a new
hope absolutely perfect and after that
back onto the original stories we also
got news that yoda himself will be
appearing in the obi-wan series the word
is that frank oz will be playing yoda
and the two will be communing via the
force just as you'd expect we already
know from the current canon that they
did communicate many times in their
exile so this will definitely be fitting
well into that now for the final piece
of news we have reports that obi-wan
will be fighting darth vader not once
but twice in the series this is
absolutely huge and both are likely to
be on the same level as the mustafa
showdown in revenge of the sith if you
had any concerns about them fighting
before a new hope because of the line
said by vader well that's going to be
shattered i definitely think it can be
done in a way that doesn't break
anything and i'm very excited to see
where it goes let me know in the
comments how you feel about them
fighting before a new hope and how you
think it can be done without breaking
too much there are many ways it can be
done and i'm sure it'll be great so
that's all there is for today's news
update hope you guys enjoyed and are
looking forward to the obi-wan series
make sure you subscribe to join the star
force and there'll be plenty plenty more
content coming about kenobi and every
other star wars tv show cheers guys hope
