Ewan McGregor posts a video message on social media in support of Obi-Wan Kenobi co-star Moses Ingram.
Moses Ingram, who debuts as Reva Sevanda in new Obi-Wan Kenobi series, revealed she has been receiving racist, bigoted messages on social media after the show was premiered last week.
To help defend her, Ewan McGregor recorded a personal message from inside his car, which was then shared via the Star Wars Twitter account. “This weekend, Star Wars fans made Obi-Wan Kenobi the most-watched Disney+ original series premiere of all time. And for that, I would say a big thank you, and it goes to show what this family can do when we all pull together. However, it seems that some of the fanbase have decided to attack Moses Ingram online and send her the most hateful, horrendous DMs, and I heard some of them this morning and it just broke my heart.”

He continues by adding:
“I just wanted to say as the leading actor in the series, as the executive producer on the series, that we stand with Moses. We love Moses. And if you send her bullying messages, you’re no Star Wars fan in my mind. There’s no place for racism in this world. I totally stand with Moses.”
