Obi-Wan Kenobi screeners weren't sent out to critics in advance, meaning they got to watch the first two episodes at the same time as everyone else. Now, reviews have started pouring in, and with them we have an early Rotten Tomatoes score. As you can see below, after 29 verdicts have been counted, the latest Star Wars TV series has an 86% score.
That's not a bad start, though we're sure the number will fluctuate as more reviews hit the aggregator.
With this score comes a freshly released batch of spoiler stills from Obi-Wan Kenobi's first two episodes showcasing a number of key moments. As you might expect, the vast majority of the spotlight is put on Ewan McGregor's Jedi Master both on Tatooine and walking through the seedy streets of Daiyu.
Lucasfilm also shared four new character posters for Obi-Wan Kenobi just hours after the premiere dropped on Disney+.
As you can see below, they offer a closer look at Reva (Moses Ingram), The Grand Inquisitor (Rupert Friend), The Fifth Brother (Sung Kang), and Haja Estree (Kumail Nanjiani). They all played key roles in the first two episodes, though we're a little surprised that Vivien Lyra Blair's Princess Leia hasn't joined them. We'd argue that Uncle Owen is worthy of his own poster too!
"Obi-Wan Kenobi is a showcase for the immense talents of Ewan McGregor and Vivien Lyra Blair, and after just two episodes, it's already on a par with The Mandalorian as the best Star Wars TV series yet," we said in our review of the Disney+ series following its debut earlier today.
Take a look at the Tomatometer reveal along with those spoilery new Obi-Wan Kenobi stills below.
