With the Han Solo Star Wars project inching ever closer to completion, we here at Chip and Co have been wondering if other much-loved Star Wars characters would be given the feature film treatment and it looks as if the answer is yes!

The Hollywood Reporter confirmed in a piece released today that a Star Wars Obi-Wan Kenobi film is in the works with filmmaker Stephen Daldry in early talks to direct the lastest project.

Sources say that the film is in its earliest stages and currently has no script. However, if it comes to fruition it would join one of several other films being developed by Lucasfilm and Disney that fall outside of the trilogies.  The Han Solo movie is not nearing its final stages of shooting with new director Ron Howard at the helm.  According to the Hollywood Reporter Lucasfilm is also considering movies centering on Yoda and Boba Fett.The role of Obi-Wan Kenobi was originated by Alec Guiness with Ewan McGregor going on to assume the role during the George Lucas- directed prequel films.  According to the Hollywood Reporter, McGregor is open to reprising the role though sources stress that the project is in such early stages that no actors are currently attached to film.


 

Stephen Daldry’s previous film credits include Billy Elliot,  The Hours and Netflix’s period drama The Crown for which he earned an Emmy nomination.
