Star Wars canon limited the writing of Kenobi. “It also kind of doesn’t allow, sometimes, things to venture beyond where maybe they should to tell a better story. So it can sometimes really handicap what I think are better narrative options.”
Obi-Wan Kenobi writer Andrew Stanton explains why working on the Star Wars show sometimes left him feeling frustrated. Taking place between the events of Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope, Obi-Wan Kenobi serves to bridge the gap between Ewan McGregor's portrayal of the iconic Jedi in the prequels and Alec Guinness' version in the original trilogy.
“That was the blessing and the curse of it. It’s like one, you’re geeking out that you get to type ‘Vader says’ this and ‘Kenobi says’ that. You pause and say ‘I can’t believe I’m actually getting paid to type this. I can’t believe these words may be said.’ But then another part of you, it has to go through such a rigorous like ‘Does that fit the canon?’ And I feel like it’s bittersweet.
