Despite what you might have read online, Ewan McGregor is not returning as Obi-Wan Kenobi in Ahsoka season 2. A quote taken out of context sent the Star Wars fandom into a frenzy over the weekend, but Lucasfilm has now shut down the rumors, as McGregor's real comments have finally been clarified.
It all started when the actor was asked, during an appearance at Fan Expo Boston 2025, which is his favorite Star Wars installment that he is not a part of. He chose Ahsoka, partly because of his wife, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, who plays Hera Syndulla in the Disney Plus show.
