The rumours of a season 2, or some other kind of Kenobi story be it a movie or a spiritual sequel in any way, have me very worried. Surely they can’t involve Vader or have Obi-wan leave Tatooine again, once was already pushing it. And it also means a return to all the people asking for Maul to appear, even for Rebels to be de-canonised.
Ewan and Deborah Chow have stated over and over that this show is a contained story with a beginning, middle and end. Ewan even refers to it as a satisfying character arc that transitions him perfectly into the ANH Obi-Wan. Just because the actor has stated in press junkets that he would love to play the character again doesn’t mean they sabotaged this show to squeeze out another season. It’s only six episodes, if they wanted MORE out of him then they missed their chance.
After having watched the first three episodes…personally I’m not entirely sure this is what we asked for in the first place. We certainly don’t need more if it’s all going to be like this with low production visuals and lackluster side characters.
