Some were disappointed that the beloved character didn’t get a stand alone film. However, if you ask show director Deborah Chow, she would tell you that a television show works better.
Chow explained her reasoning while discussing her directorial stint on episode 3 of The Mandalorian with the New York Times.
The situation is so complex both for [Obi-Wan] personally and in a way, the state of the galaxy, you sort of need time to explore it. And to be honest there are loads of other stories within that period as well, it’s quite a few years. There is so much going on between [Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope] that hasn’t been explored. The idea of being able to go into a character journey plus the politics. Plus all the vastness of the Empire and what’s going on is exciting. Just because it feels like a proper period of history and sometimes that is hard to do in two hours.
Are you excited to see what Chow and Disney+ has in store for Obi-Wan? Would you have preferred a film or does Chan’s explanation echo your sentiments? Share your thoughts with us at GeekVibesNation.
