According to a new report from The DisInsider Show, some of the most iconic characters from the Knights Of The Old Republic video game series will be making their live-action debuts in the upcoming Disney Plus Star Wars series, The Acolyte.

Some of the characters mentioned in the report Darth Revan, Darth Bane, Darth Nihilus, and Darth Malak.

I hear they’re going to bring in a lot of these legends, Darth Bane, Darth Nihilus, Darth Malak, Darth uh…Revan, all in Star Wars: Acolyte, so we’ll see.

I am really excited to see The Acolyte.

It’s coming from Leslye Headland – the creator of the great Netflix show, Russian Doll – and I think this will be the best Star Wars show we’ve seen yet.

The series is going to be Star Wars’ first live-action venture into the High Republic, the period of time before the prequel trilogy when Sith were thought to be few and far between.

The Knights Of The Old Republic video games are no longer considered as Star Wars canon.

However, it does seem as though they will be mining the games and comic books for content for their upcoming shows.

The video games were set 3,900 years before Star Wars: A New Hope.

The Acolyte, on the other hand, takes place roughly 300 years prior to the Battle of Yavin.

The post Knights Of The Old Republic Characters Set To Appear The Acolyte appeared first on Small Screen.

This was revealed by Solo: A Star Wars Story writer, Jon Kasdan during a recent red carpet interview with Screen Rant.

You can see what he had to say about possibly bringing Emilia Clarke back to the Star Wars universe as Qi’Ra below:

Here’s what Kasdan had to say about bringing the likes of Clarke’s Qi’Ra back in future Star Wars projects:

I think we are. I think someday we’re gonna see what happened. And see how Qi’ra sort of advanced through the world and through the crime syndicates. And you know, I know that… I’ve talked to Jon Favreau about it. He’s a big fan of that movie and of some of the stuff that we built on. And I say well you’re the guy to figure it out. So, I always look to him to keep the story alive and keep it going. And star wars is going in so many fun directions and specifically for like, I saw that trailer for Andor today and I thought ‘Well, Enfys Nest is gonna show up somewhere in that show.’ So I’m hopeful that a lot of those people continue the journeys they were on.

There have been rumours for quite some time that Clarke might be returning as Qi’Ra.

There’s still a lot of stuff to be done with her character given what happened at the end of Solo: A Star Wars Story.

I loved her performance in the movie and I really think her character is fascinating.

I would also love to see more of Maul and also get to see a little bit more of what Red Dawn’s up to behind the scenes.

It’s going to be interesting to see what’s going to happen in the Star Wars universe moving forward.

The post Emilia Clarke May Return To Star Wars Universe As Qi’Ra appeared first on Small Screen.

Full disclosure, we have not been able to validate these reports ourselves.

We have reached out to our own sources as well as Disney and Lucasfilm representatives, but have yet to hear back from any of them.

This article will be updated as soon as we hear anything about Maguire and Dano possibly being looked at for roles in Feige’s much-anticipated Star Wars flick.

According to a new content creator that goes by the name of HighQ, Tobey Maguire and Paul Dano are being considered for villainous roles in this Star Wars film.

In their post, HighQ claimed that: “Tobey Maguire and Paul Dano are a few names rumoured for the roles. They are unique from your traditional Star Wars antagonists.”

This would be some very interesting casting indeed.

It seems as though they are casting for multiple villains in the movie.

Tobey Maguire was last seen in Spider-Man: No Way Home in which he returned as his version of Peter Parker – aka Spider-Man.

However, before that movie, Maguire had been very much absent from Hollywood.

Yet, it looks like he’s about to be seen in a lot more movies moving forward.

We’re going to get to see Tobey Maguire star in Damien Chazelle’s upcoming movie, Babylon alongside some pretty big names in Hollywood.

Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie will be leading the film’s cast as John Gilbert and Clara Bow respectively.

Tobey Maguire is also serving as an executive producer on the movie and will be appearing in a supporting role as Charlie Chaplin.

As for Paul Dano, he’s just come off of playing the Riddler in Matt Reeves’ incredible The Batman.

Dano does love to play a good villain and I think he would fit in very well in the Star Wars universe.

The post Tobey Maguire & Paul Dano Linked To Villain Roles For Kevin Feige’s Star Wars Movie appeared first on Small Screen.

This report comes via FandomWire and it seems as though this rumour is gathering steam online.

This all comes after Ewan McGregor teased that there might be more episodes of Obi-Wan Kenobi than just the six episodes that we were informed would be in Kenobi season 1.

McGregor teased this during his recent appearance at Star Wars Celebration.

It would be very interesting for Disney and Lucasfilm to make a second season of this new Kenobi series given the rather shrill reaction to the first three episodes of the show on social media.

It seems as though there are a number of so-called Star Wars fans that haven’t really taken to the show.

Ewan McGregor recently slammed the racist comments and messages that his Kenobi co-star, Moses Ingram, received on social media.

Despite all the negative reviews and reactions to the series online, the first season of Obi-Wan Kenobi has already done really well on Disney Plus.

The series has ended up shattering all of the streaming platform’s previous viewing records.

Obi-Wan Kenobi was sold as a limited series. However, it does seem as though it might not be as limited as we were lead to believe.

It does seem as though there are plenty of potential plotlines for Ewan McGregor’s Ben Kenobi to explore in future episodes of this new Star Wars show.

The post Obi-Wan Kenobi Season 2 Is Reportedly Already In The Works appeared first on Small Screen.

The Scottish actor, who plays the lead in the new Kenobi series, took to social media himself to reprimand all the people who sent horrible and racist DMs to Moses Ingram.

Ingram is playing Reva in the Obi-Wan Kenobi Disney Plus series and we thought she was brilliant in the first two episodes of the new Star Wars series.

Reva is an Inquisitor and she’s referred to as ‘Third Sister’, and she really, really wants to find Obi-Wan Kenobi.

However, even the Inquisitors question her methods and believe her search for Obi-Wan Kenobi is futile.

Yet, Reva ends up coming very close to capturing Kenobi in Episode 2, and if it wasn’t for The Grand Inquisitor’s (played by Rupert Friend) intervention, she might have been able to get her hands on the Jedi Master.

So, yes, we think Ingram is great as Reva and we cannot wait to see what happens next in the series.

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.

The Mandalorian has been, in many ways, the thing that Star Wars fans have really been latching on to.

Jon Favreau’s show demonstrated that the Star Wars universe still has interesting things to offer us.

The sequel trilogy left a lot to be desired and had a pretty bad tendency of hashing over old ground.

The Mandalorian, on the other hand, showed us another side to the Star Wars universe that we weren’t all that used to.

I’m speaking of the dark underbelly of the Star Wars universe.

The Mandalorian is about a bounty hunter and his journey to becoming a hero.

It’s a really fascinating story and the show takes queues from westerns and samurai movies, which I love.

Jon Favreau has worked very closely with Dave Filoni on this show, and together they have ignited the spark amongst Star Wars fans again.

We’ve now had other Star Wars shows from them, such as The Book Of Boba Fett.

And, we’ve got new ones coming such as the Ahsoka series.

During an interview with CinemaBlend at Star Wars Celebration, The Mandalorian creator Jon Favreau revealed that he is mapping out his plans for The Mandalorian Season 4 right now.

This is his exact quote:

With television, we’re very lucky that we don’t have to rush things through into an hour-and-a-half, two hours. We get to tell stories slowly. So now, as Dave [Filoni]’s doing Ahsoka, it’s very much informing the writing that I’m doing for [The Mandalorian] Season 4. It becomes – how should I put it – more precise.

Are you looking forward to watching The Mandalorian Seasons 3 and 4?

The post The Mandalorian Season 4 Is Already In Development appeared first on Small Screen.

This happened during a recent interview at Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim and I would really love to know what Ewan McGregor was about to reveal.

He was asked what, if anything, would he change on Obi-Wan Kenobi’s lightsaber.

Ewan revealed that he wouldn’t change anything on it, but then he started to talk about something related to Kenobi’s lightsaber.

However, he realised that he might have said too much and the expression on his face was priceless.

McGregor looked shocked and then turned to someone behind him and admitted that he almost gave away a spoiler for the show.

McGregor was asked about his dream lightsaber, revealing that he actually likes Obi-Wan’s just as it is.

Here’s what McGregor said:

Pretty much like it does, you know. Yeah, I didn’t want to make any changes.

The actor then went on to add: “The interesting thing about… well, you’ll see.”

McGregor then caught himself, before bursting out in nervous laughter.

McGregor turned around and admitted to someone behind him: “I was just totally about to give something away.”

The post Ewan McGregor Almost Gave Away A Huge Obi-Wan Kenobi Spoiler appeared first on Small Screen.

The show’s first two episodes were released on Friday, May 27th.

However, it’s been revealed (via AlloCiné) that rather than releasing Obi-Wan Kenobi on Friday, June 3rd, the new episode of the show will be released this Wednesday (June 1st).

This means that we’re going to get to watch Obi-Wan Kenobi Episode 3 a whole days earlier than we thought we would.

It’s also been revealed that new episodes of the show are going to be made available on Wednesdays from now on!

So, with that in mind, here is the updated release schedule for Obi-Wan Kenobi:

Episode 1 and 2: May 27th

Episode 3: June 1st

Episode 4: June 8th

Episode 5: June 15th

Episode 6: June 22nd

Obi-Wan Kenobi Episode 3 is being released two days early!

READ MORE: Obi-Wan Kenobi Season 2 Might Already Be In The Works

This is actually a much better idea since for some reason shows that were released on Fridays on Disney Plus have seemingly performed worse than ones which were released on Wednesdays.

There must be some reason for that, but I’m not sure what it could be.

Maybe people are starting to go out more again and will rather catch the show after its release than they would do during the week?

However, that’s not all. There have also been some rumours that Obi-Wan Kenobi will last longer than six episodes.

This comes after the show’s star, Ewan McGregor, teased during Star Wars Celebration that there could be an episode 7, 8 and even 9!

Here’s what the actor said via Star Wars’ official YouTube channel:

It was amazing watching the first two episodes [of Obi-Wan Kenobi] the other night. I hope you love episode three and then four and five and six.. and seven and eight and nine and ten!

So, why do they think that Liam Neeson is lying about his one condition on playing Qui-Gon Jinn again?

Well, it’s because it was revealed that Neeson would be voicing Qui-Gon in the animated Disney Plus Star Wars series, Star Wars: Tales Of The Jedi.

This news comes after the Northern Irish actor revealed that he’d love to play Qui-Gon again, but he would only do it in a movie.

Neeson revealed that he is interested in a possible live-action Star Wars return whilst speaking to ComicBook.com.

However, he made it clear that he’s not interested in returning in a series.

Oh, I think so. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think so.; If it was a film. Yes, I’m a bit of a snob when it comes to TV, but I just like the big screen, you know.

Fans have since taken to Reddit to call ‘bullshit’ on Neeson’s claims.

One person wrote: “He obviously isn’t a snob when it comes to TV because he’s done TV before, including TCW and the upcoming Tales of the Jedi. So what we’re reading between the lines here is that he’s come up with that as his non-committal lie to ward off questions about his return under an NDA.”

Another person added: “He came back for clone wars I think he would do some voice work for Kenobi.”

A third person said: “An actor as good as him could never be a convincing liar now could he?”

The post Fans Think Liam Neeson’s Lying About His One Condition On Playing Qui-Gon Jinn Again appeared first on Small Screen.

This isn’t the first time that a non-white actor has been attacked by the so-called Star Wars fandom.

Kelly Marie Tran was so viciously attacked by people online that she decided the best thing to do for her own mental health was to leave social media entirely.

Now, what kind of world do we live in when people start attacking actors for just doing their jobs?

Moses Ingram has now also been a victim of these hateful attacks from people online.

Ingram, who plays the sinister villain Reva on the show, shared some of the “hundred” of racially-charged violent messages and death threats so-called “fans” DMed her via Instagram.

She decided to take to her Instagram Stories to thank her fans for trying to call out this horrible type of behaviour.

However, Ingram then told her fans that “there’s nothing anybody can do about [it]”.

Ingram added:

Long story short there are hundreds of those [messages]. Hundreds. And I also see those of you out there who put on a cape for me and that really does mean the world for me because there’s nothing anybody can do about this. There’s nothing anybody can do to stop this hate. And so I question what my purpose is even being here in front of you saying that this is happening… I don’t really know. But I think the thing that bothers me is this feeling that I’ve had with myself — that nobody has told me — that I gotta be quiet and take it. That I gotta kinda just grin and bare it. And I’m not built like that. So I really just want to come on and say thank you to the people who show up for me in the comments and places I’m not gonna put myself. And to the rest of y’all? y’all weird.

Thankfully, the team behind Star Wars’ official Twitter account has decided to call the haters and the abusers out.

We are proud to welcome Moses Ingram to the Star Wars family and excited for Reva’s story to unfold. If anyone intends to make her feel in any way unwelcome, we have only one thing to say: we resist. pic.twitter.com/lZW0yvseBk

— Star Wars (@starwars) May 31, 2022

They posted a tweet which said they were proud to have her be part of the series and added they “resisted” anyone who intended to “make her feel in any way unwelcome”.

“There are more than 20 million sentient species in the Star Wars galaxy, don’t choose to be a racist.”

New episodes of Obi-Wan Kenobi will be landing every Wednesday on Disney Plus.
