Hayden Christensen Will Reprise Darth Vader for Obi-Wan ‘Star Wars’ Spinoff Series

Darth Vader is returning to a galaxy far, far away. President of Lucasfilm Kathleen Kennedy announced at the Disney Investors Day that the “Star Wars” prequel star Hayden Christensen will reprise his role as Darth Vader for the Obi-Wan spinoff series.

The Obi-Wan series, starring Ewan McGregor (who played the beloved Jedi in prequel films) will air on Disney Plus. Earlier this year, Variety broke the news that writer Joby Harold had been brought on to script the series, taking over for Hossein Amini, who left the project back in January. Harold also wrote for Zack Snyder’s “Army of the Dead” film and worked on WGN America drama series “Underground” and the Netflix series “Spinning Out.”

Also announced, the “Andor” spinoff starring Diego Luna as Cassian Andor from “Rogue One,” an Ashoka Tano spinoff and a “Rangers of the New Republic” series both brought to you by “The Mandalorian” creator Jon Favreau and longtime “Star Wars” creator and Executive Producer Dave Filoni.
