STAR WARS: Liam Neeson Wants To Come Back As Qui-Gon Jinn For The OBI-WAN Movie, But Is It Plausible?

In an interview with Yahoo Movies UK, The Phantom Menace actor Liam Neeson revealed that he is open to returning as the Jedi master for the Obi-Wan Kenobi spin-off. But would his appearance make sense?

Liam Neeson is non-stop (pun intended) when it comes to churning out action films. Since Taken, he has become well seasoned in the craft of killing bad guys, yet his most prominent role is still Qui-Gon Jinn.

Though The Phantom Menace may be maligned by many fans, Qui-Gon remained a favorite throughout the years, and during his press tour for The Commuter, the action legend was asked about his future as the Jedi - specifically if he would reprise his role in the Obi-Wan anthology film.


"This is the first time I'm hearing of [the movie]. No one's been in touch with me. I know in the Star Wars World anything is possible. In the first one, The Phantom Menace, I died but we know, you know, Jedi come back and stuff but no one's been in touch. We'll see."

Neeson most recently reprised the role for an appearance in Star Wars: The Clone Wars (as seen above), so it's entirely possible that the character could again in the force ghost capacity, as Yoda did in The Last Jedi.

I'm that one guy you get annoyed with because he talks about movies too much, but I'm also the one guy you love to talk movies with.
