And Disney just released a first look video for the upcoming Rogue One: A Star Wars prequel series, Andor. But that’s not all because there’s some exciting news about the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series, too!
During the Disney Investor Day webcast, Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy shared a first look and behind-the-scenes video of Andor, which takes place before Rogue One and follows the adventures of Cassian Andor (Diego Luna). The series is set to arrive on Disney+ in 2022.

But there was also an update about the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series starring Ewan McGregor, and this is a VERY big deal. Actor Hayden Christensen, who played Anakin Skywalker (aka Darth Vader) in two of the three prequel films, will be reprising his role as Vader for the show, which takes 10 years after Revenge of the Sith.
