OBI-WAN KENOBI Title Teaser Revealed; Hayden Christensen Is Officially Returning As Darth Vader

Only investors got to see the first look at Obi-Wan Kenobi, but we do have a title reveal for the upcoming Disney+ TV series along with confirmation that Hayden Christensen is returning as Darth Vader!

We've known for a while that Obi-Wan Kenobi is coming to Disney+, but one major new detail about the series was just revealed during Disney's Investor Day.

Confirmed to be set 10 years after the events of Revenge of the Sith, we now have a much better idea of how this show fits into the wider Star Wars Universe. However, the biggest news to come out of the panel was that Hayden Christensen is returning...as Darth Vader. 

There was no mention of Anakin Skywalker, so it sounds like the actor will be donning that iconic suit to play the Sith Lord, and the show will presumably reveal more about what life was life for him a decade after being transformed into Vader. Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy also teased a "rematch," so it sounds a lot like we're going to see Vader and Obi-Wan come face to face again. 

That would certainly go some way towards explaining why their reunion in A New Hope didn't exactly show the two of them picking up where they left off in Revenge of the Sith! 

Check out the first Obi-Wan Kenobi teaser (it is just a title reveal) below:
