The droll Jedi master “Obi-Wan Kenobi” is back, but according to the new teaser for the Disney+ series, he no longer has the upper hand.
When is it going to be released? On May 4th, a young Luke Skywalker, lightsaber-wielding baddies, and, of course, a certain Sith is known for his hard breathing make appearances in the trailer.
The limited series, dubbed “Episode III: Revenge of the Sith,” follows Ewan McGregor’s famed Jedi after his disciple Anakin Skywalker goes full dark side in “Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.”
Years after Emperor Palpatine ascended to power and “Ordered 66’d” most Jedi, Obi-Wan can’t seem to catch a break: he’s avoiding evil Inquisitors intent on tracking.

The trailer concludes with the instantly recognizable breaths of Darth Vader, who really only recently has become a Sith in the “Star Wars” timeline. Will the former master and apprentice go toe-to-toe? Hayden Christensen is reprising his role as a badly burned Anakin/Vader in the series, so it’s possible.
