It doesn't have to reference Spaghetti Westerns (or High Plains Drifter), they can reference the original lone frontier hero archetype in the vein of Shane

Rumor: Obi-Wan Kenobi Movie Eyes Early 2019 Production Start
- Thread starter emir

Obi-Wan might even be more pure than Shane. Unless of course part of the movie delves into Obi-Wan's dark pre-Jedi past.
Fuck yeah. Just make it a man with no name western type movie, and don't ever say his name, and if you do make it at the end when he reidentifies as a Jedi.
Him being pure would a good twist imo. He'd feel responsible for every little miserable thing happening in the galaxy, feel the weight of it all on his shoulders. Could easily be a trilogy

Or his disillusionment and desire to not meddle in people's affairs post episode III. This really isn't that hard.
Anyway, this is kind of an irrelevant discussion because who knows what type of story the studio intends to tell.
Who the hell wanted Rogue One?
Obi wan movie sounds way more exciting than the new stories they're crapping out or a boring Han solo flick.
You can tell quite a few stories with exile Obi-Wan on Tatoonie, or even other bits of galaxy if one wanted.
It could be it's own franchise, imo.

He'd be better then whatever asshole that played him in prequels.
Yep and there is enough time to make a few movies if they want. Ewan is great, I'd love a few Obi films that age him up till 4
ewan is great and filming next door, bout to try to sneak in and ask him about this
He's already expressed interest in doing it, which is pretty awesome
If the Jedi were ranked by power he'd be top 3 or even top 2 depending on how you feel about Mace Windu. He overcame Darth Vader who wasn't even mutilated yet. Obi Wan is a certified badass so why wouldn't we want a movie about one of the most powerful Jedi?
considering he literally turned himself into force particles or whatever on command (aka immortality) he could arguably be the top spot. mace windu will always be a bamf though
Oh, he's gonna be back. That's not even a possibility. LucasFilm knows how much people like him in the role, are willing to throw a fuck ton of money at him and he actually wants to do it. He should've probably been acting a bit more hard to get, honestly.
Ewan has been wanting to do an Obi-Wan movie for a while, as he's stated a few times now, so I can't see him turning it down. He seems to love Star Wars, loved playing the character, and was great as the character, so it feels like a no brainer and a lock.
Why do people think Ewan wouldn't be in this, is there a new unfounded fear that Lucasfilm isn't interested in keep continuity with prequel actors? Can I remind everyone that they brought back Jimmy Smitts to play Bail Organa in Rogue One? And that they even brought back Genevieve O'Reilly to play Mon Mothma in Rogue One and provide the voice for her in Rebels, even though her scenes in RotS were cut out? And that Ewan McGregor even did some cameo voice acting for The Force Awakens? I'm pretty sure that Lucasfilm will ask him, and that Ewan will say yes.
Yeah, I'd love for this to happen. So much potential, and such a great character. That said, Ewan or I'm not interested. Recasting someone who made the character so interesting, in otherwise just ok movies, would be a mistake. (Yeah, I don't hate the prequels, but let's be honest, if everyone put in the effort McGregor did, they could have been amazing).
The real question is not if McGregor will reprise his role (of course he will) but whether or not Liam Neeson will make an appearance.
We might finally get some closure on that character...

Would this be the third Star Wars Story or is this one separate from those?
Cause I wouldn't mind it at all to be honest.

Thanks. Wasn't sure why this was newsworthy. I suppose Kenobi hasn't been formally announced yet.
