    Judge them by their size do you? And well you should not. For their ally is the Force and a powerful ally it is!

    Indira would make a good Annileen Calwell.

    With Kenobi having a role in Andor, i think maybe kenobi visits Alderaan and we see Bail and his wife Breah Ograna who will be played by Indira. Illumimati some time ago reported on child actors for luke and Leia.
     
  5. I believe in some point Disney will contradict storys of the cartoons, books and comics for live action i wouldn't be surprised if Maul appears on this show and contradicts Rebels and do a live action version of Old Wounds

    Comics and books maybe, but cartoons is just as important as live action for Lucasfilm.

    I don't know that I would trust this. The original report is based on pretty much nothing except a rumor from Illuminerdi. Which itself gives no basis for the rumor. Anyone can say "There are rumors that...."

    Yeah, I don't see Disney/LFL contradicting the animated series. Not with how popular TCW is - and not with how much The Mandalorian has been leaning into the animated shows e.g. Ahsoka, Thrawn, Bo Katan.

    For now it's just a rumor but the Illuminati has been credible in recent years i have seen, Kenobi in Andor makes sense with in reason, with his relatioship with Bail. plus we know he will jump to other planets in Kneobi so i can see a visit to Alderaan with Bail and Breah present. I think both Kenobi and Andor will be connected like Mando and it's story, maybe not as mutch but will be somewhat, as not many years between them.

    Can we just have some shows be their own thing and NOT connect to every other show? I'm already so tired of all the cameos in the Mandalorian and it's only getting worse with the interconnected spinoffs. Star Wars is this huge universe but we've got to have the same handful of characters in every show?

    Give it time, its going in that direction. Right now its important to come out and try to tie in to things. It's great to see a character that was in one area appear in another. That was what made legends great in my opinion. That special ability to relate from one story to the other. The ROTS novel was a great example of this. Mace fighting Palpy and resorting to Vapaad.

    I think Acolyte and Lando maybe will be the only series not connected to the other shows. I can see people not liking the connective tissue but really it's part of star wars. I think Kenobi and Andor will connect like Rebels does to TCW, as it did connect not mutch but some. It will thell their onw story with b-plots to connect.

    I don't see why Lando won't be connected. but then connected doesn't mean they need to feel like continuations from each other. they are in the same time period after all.

    Only thing id be surprised about is that the Obi Wan show is set 10 years after ROTS and Andor is said to be set 5 years before Rogue One. so we would be seeing a later Kenobi in this show and an earlier one in Kenobi. id have thought in that case showing the Kenobi show first in the schedule would be more suited then showing Andor show and then showing Kenobi show after.

    The cameos are icing on the cake. now too much icing is sickly and no icing is just abit disapointing and plain. even with the jam which is just the recognisable ships and planets you might see.

    I fully believe Maul could feature, but there is absolutely zero chance of Lucas Film contradicting the events of Rebels.

    I agree with that. Part of what has always attracted me to Star Wars is how it feels like each story is a piece in a larger puzzle. There are times when it feels forced (e.g. Ponda Baba and Dr. Evazan in R1) and then it runs the risk of the universe feeling small, but I'm all for it when it makes sense. What's the point of having an interconnected universe if you never connect anything? When done right it makes the universe feel real.

    This is also part of the marvelization of star wars that they want to keep doing now, I think we could see characters from Andor in Kenobi and vice versa, I suspect a few more known characters in Book of Boba and Mando season 3.

    Problem is if Andor is released before Kenobi then events would be going backwards. since Andor is set after Kenobi.

    Id put out Kenobi first in that case. but Andor is already filming so... yeah.

    Maybe we get a tease of Kenobi in Andor before his whole series, setting up his relationship with Bail before Kenobi.

    But Kenobi is set I think about 5 years BEFORE Andor, so I'm not sure how it would set up anything. From the perspective of the Kenobi series, Andor is set in the future.

    There's just also the issue of having Ewan's first appearance as Obi-Wan in over fifteen years be on someone else's show first. I'm not saying it couldn't happen, but to me it wouldn't feel right.

    I think his first appearance might be in hologram and after Kenobi we might see him and Bail meet.

    It happened with Ahsoka. And it felt very right.

    Spoiler alert: it isn’t


    Not purposefully. By accident almost certainly
