This never before seen look at life in the Star Wars universe will show us the unique story of Obi-Wan Kenobi watching over Luke Skywalker from afar after his padawan Anakin turned into Darth Vader. The Obi-Wan Kenobi series starts ten years after the extermination of seemingly all Jedi, old and young (rip younglings), after the execution of Order 66.
