Scottish actor Ewan McGregor first played the role of Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars more than 20 years ago and now he is back as the Jedi master for a new Disney+ series."It was really great, I think partly because of the new technology."
He says: "In episode 2, I go off on my own for a while and I have all these scenes with aliens with long necks and I was just acting with a tennis ball on a stick for weeks and weeks.The new Star Wars spin-off series, which begins 10 years after the events of the film Star Wars: Revenge Of The Sith, was made with the latest visual effects technology.
Denis Lawson, his mother's brother, played X-wing pilot Wedge Antilles in all three films of the original Star Wars trilogy.
