It has also revealed that the events of A New Hope were not the first time that Obi-Wan and Princess Leia crossed paths, as the reclusive Jedi also helped get her out of trouble when she was just a child.<\/p>\n
Reception has been generally positive to the series, prompting fans to wonder if there could possibly be more coming down the pipeline \u2013 here\u2019s everything we know so far.<\/p>\n

However, more recently, members of the cast and creative team have made comments suggesting this could have changed and that a second season is now very much on the table.<\/p>
Director Deborah Chow told RadioTimes.com<\/a>: \u201cI think this story was very much conceived to be its own standalone. [But] there are, of course, more stories that you could tell.<\/p>\n\u201cThere\u2019s obviously another 10 years before we get to A New Hope and with a character like Obi-Wan Kenobi, I think even just watching him ride across the sand sometimes is interesting. So, who knows? It\u2019s hard to say right now, but it was not the intention.\u201d<\/p>\n

Obi-Wan actor Ewan McGregor added: \u201cI hope it\u2019s not the last time I play him. I had such a great time doing this, I\u2019m sure we can think of a few more stories before I turn into Alec Guinness, don\u2019t you think?\u201d<\/p>\n
Despite apparent interest from both, there has been no official confirmation of a second season from Disney just yet, but the studio will hopefully set the record straight soon.<\/p>\n
What could happen in Obi-Wan Kenobi season 2?<\/strong><\/h2>\nWe can only speculate as to what the plot of a potential second season would be, given the uncertainty surrounding the project and the general secrecy around every Lucasfilm production.<\/p>\n
The writers of the show would be somewhat restricted by existing continuity, with Obi-Wan needing to be back on Tatooine by the start of A New Hope, while events also mustn\u2019t contradict what has already been depicted in Star Wars: Rebels.<\/p>\n
Indeed, it wouldn\u2019t be possible for Obi-Wan to face Darth Maul once more in live-action due to the two arch-rivals already having had their final confrontation in the animated show.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s possible that Hayden Christensen could also come back, as he told\u00a0RadioTimes.com\u00a0<\/strong>that he would \u201clove to continue\u201d as Anakin Skywalker\/Darth Vader<\/a> and that there is \u201ccertainly more there to explore\u201d in the role.<\/p>\nSome fans have criticised the prequel star\u2019s lack of screen time in this first season, so it would probably go down well to sprinkle in a few more pre-Vader flashbacks, such as the one that sent fans wild in episode 5.<\/p>\n
Moses Ingram made a huge impression as Reva in this initial run of Obi-Wan Kenobi, so it\u2019s not hard to imagine her remaining a big part of this show moving forward if it were to return.<\/p>\n
