Nothing can ever replace the love that Star Wars fans have for Episodes IV-VI, but McGregor's performance as Obi-Wan was one of the standout aspects of the most recent trilogy.
Watching him grow into the second most famous beard in film - Hans Gruber gets the top spot - was arguably the most enjoyable part of Lucas' modern trilogy and we genuinely feel that there's so much more that McGregor could do with the character, especially if the rumoured spin-off does take place between the events of Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope.
While no new titles were announced at Star Wars Celebration, it's clear that the Scottish actor is more than happy to reprise the role.
Speakign with EW, he said. “There’s no official offer, and I haven’t met them about it or anything”, he said. “But I’ve always said that I’d be happy to do it if they wanted to do it. It would be a good segue between the last episode of the prequels and the new episodes. I think they’ve got films to make until the 2020s, so I don’t think it’s going to happen soon if it happens at all”.
So, Star Wars fans, what do you think? Would you be happy for an Obi-Wan standalone adventure to be the next film from the galaxy that's far, far away?
Truth be told, we want a Boba Fett movie where he teams up with Darth Vader to disintegrate their enemies. How cool would that be?
