We pay for your stories and videos! He said: “It wasn’t the first movie I went to see in the cinema because that was Bedknobs And Broomsticks. Ewan told how he went to the cinema to see Denis, 74, when he was young - but it wasn’t initially in Star Wars.

Those of a certain age likely recall the arc of the "Star Wars" films released between 1999 and 2005. The three prequel films — "The Phantom Menace," ...

And the reaction to the films was weird and difficult. A lot of people didn't like the prequels, and it was such hard work to make them. And to do that and be passionate about it and then for the films not to be very well received was really tough." The filmmaking was supporting the technology, as opposed to the story. Once the three films had been completed, McGregor admits to feeling relief and frustration simultaneously. George said that he didn't want to make 'VII,' 'VIII,' and 'IX,' so we all just assumed that was it. Lucas was keen to push film technology to a new plane, incorporating a lot of digital imagery, and even advocating for digital projection, still uncommon in the early 2000s. McGregor went on to describe how difficult it was to work with digital technology. It must have been a relief for the actor, as he says that making them was a fun, passionate experience, and required a lot of hard work. But that meant for us that we were very much on blue screens and green screens. Poor Jake Lloyd, who played the young Anakin Skywalker in "The Phantom Menace" was bullied incessantly for his presence in the movie, and has since said he's sworn off movies for good. Those of a certain age likely recall the arc of the "Star Wars" films released between 1999 and 2005.

The Obi-Wan Kenobi series is almost upon us. Set to debut on 27 May, Ewan McGregor's return to the iconic role has been a whopping 17 years in the making.

He wanted to max out that technology, but that meant for us that we were very much on blue screens and green screens, and it was hard work. We really put our heart and soul into them, and they were difficult to make.” Those people now really love our films, but it’s taken us 15 years to hear that,” he said.

Ewan McGregor addressed the secrecy surrounding Obi-Wan Kenobi, pointing out most of the fan theories he has seen are largely wrong.

McGregor and the other stars will bite their tongue, keeping as much hidden away from fans as possible before it all plays out on Disney+. And I’d have to go ‘Oh you know, if they wanted to do it I’d be happy to do it. "I like to look on people’s reaction to the trailers, the teaser trailer and then the real trailer. And there are all these people that like break it down and are telling their audience what the series is about. This low fog that sits over Obi-Wan has caused the theory-spinning wheels to turn fervently across the internet. Star Wars is about to jump back into the spotlight as Obi-Wan Kenobi readies for launch into streaming hyperspace.

After all these years, Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor are finally feeling the love that fans have for the prequels during their press tour for ...

But the reality is that Star Wars belongs to everyone, and for every generation, there’s been a new story to tell. For me, I grew up with brothers who loved the original trilogy and took me to see the movies during the rerelease in the ’90s, but the prequels were mine. Maybe it’s because I was part of the generation that wanted them to know what these movies meant to us. Maybe it’s the part of me that still loves Revenge of the Sith unconditionally because I was so obsessed with it as a young 13-year-old. The return of Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor to the world of Star Wars is something I’ve waited for since I was a teenager. Christensen and McGregor knew their fair share of hatred throughout the years because of how critics and other fans reacted to the prequel series.
