Hold on to your hats, because what you're about to see might just blow you away!

We've been hearing a lot about "Ben" Kenobi's duel with Darth Vader in Disney+'s Obi-Wan Kenobi, with various outlets stating that the Sith Lord makes short work of his former Master. Of course, a rematch follows, and it's there that Obi-Wan once again embraces the Force and starts to become the wise Jedi we first met all those years ago in A New Hope.

Now, some behind the scenes footage from the upcoming limited series appears to have leaked online, and it features a moment that's been talked about a lot by various scoopers. 

As you can see, Obi-Wan is attempting to overpower Vader, but finds himself unable to do so; it's then the villain uses the Force to send his former ally flying. We have no reason to believe this isn't the real deal, though it's unclear where the footage originated. Regardless, it's been doing the rounds on social media, and you can check it out here or by clicking the image below.

Some Star Wars fans have had their doubts about Obi-Wan and Vader meeting again after their clash in Revenge of the Sith, but A New Hope left room for interpretation. Based on this epic tease, Lucasfilm has made the right decision by finding a way to have them cross paths. 

Obi-Wan Kenobi premieres on Disney+ on May 27 with its first two episodes.

Come now Josh, you can't post April Fools stuff again on April 2nd trying to pass it off as real. Goes against everything the sacred day of April Fools stands for! Unethical!

It's really gotta be fun as an actor/stuntman to get to do some of these big budget stunts. Reminds me of this.

Have they explained how they will retcon this with A New Hope?

"We meet again at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you I was but the learner. Now, I am the master!"

I don't believe for one minute that you could classify a post-Episode 3 Vader as a "learner".

@528491 - you answered your own question. They never said new hope was when they met again.

@528491 - Look at how they handled Obi-Wan/Anakin vs Dooku in ROTS.

Dooku - I’ve been looking forward to this.
Anakin - My powers have doubled since the last time we met Count.

And that’s it. Now…at the time of ROTS release. We all know the last time they fought and we know Lucas wrote those lines to indicate it was from AOTC.

But then look what Clone Wars did and how much wiggle room it gave them to have Dooku and Anakin/Obi-Wan cross paths.

@528491 - How are they retconning it since nowhere in ANH was established this was the first time they meet again?!

@kylo0607 - I think the point is Vader is obviously not a "learner" here so the quote doesn't make much sense any more.

I'm very surprised this is still up, Disney's attorneys must not be up yet.

Looks close enough to be the real deal. I like as well the props they are using to make the lightsabers appear as real before they work on the VFX for post-production.

Looks fake to me, like very fan made. I think this is an April Fool

Meh. Vader is supposed to wear his black robes OVER his chest plate, like in Ep IV and Rogue One. Continuity error.

They completed massacred Boba Fett's character through the tv show. They could make some really terrible decisions with this retcon as well. And for those of you saying, well ANW dialogue isn't specific it could refer to anything: this is a retcon in the most fundamental sense.
