FAQs
Did George Lucas replace Alec Guinness as Obi-Wan? No, he just cast a younger actor to play a younger version of the character. Sir Alec Guinness passed away in the year 2000 at the age of 86 and The Phantom Menace came out in 1999 (1 year prior to his passing).
Ewan McGregor portrays Obi-Wan in the prequel trilogy and in the 2022 miniseries Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Neeson had a brief cameo in the Disney+ series “Obi-Wan Kenobi,” but he only had about two lines of dialogue. The actor made his “Star Wars” debut in “Star Wars: The Phantom Menace,” but his character died and his “Star Wars” tenure was cut short.

However, Disney cancelled their planned Star Wars spin-off films, including the Kenobi film, following the financial failure of Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018). Lucasfilm's focus changed to making series for the streaming service Disney+, such as The Mandalorian.
