Ewan McGregor Wants ANDOR Season 3 So He Can Appear as Obi-Wan Kenobi

During an appearance at Fan Expo Canada (we first learned about at IGN), McGregor shared both his love for Andor and his disappointment it’s done. McGregor explained that he always comes to things “later” even after people recommend something. (Celebrities – they’re just like us!) And that while he was catching up on Andor, he became hopeful his Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi could appear on a third season of the Star Wars show because it takes place right before A New Hope. “I was super excited, and then I realized, ‘Oh no,'” he said.

Alas, for all of us, both viewer and iconic Jedi alike, Andor is done and will not be getting a season three. Or is it? Fittingly for Star Wars McGregor isn’t giving up hope. “There’s always a chance that maybe there’s a story that’s happening at the same time where it kind of crosses over,” he said. “So there’s always a chance if Disney is listening — hypothetically, hypothetically. Come on, Disney.”

He’s not wrong, but any sort of crossover wouldn’t take place on a hypothetical third season of Andor. Not unless Lucasfilm retcons Obi-Wan Kenobi into the end of Rogue One and he uses the Force to keep Cassian from the Death Star blast.

….Hey….wait a sec….no. Cassian Andor’s story is one that deserves to keep its perfect ending. Maybe next time, old Ben Kenobi can keep up to date on the best Star Wars show ever.
