Complete Obi-Wan Kenobi Series Coming to Movie Theaters | Star Wars

The reunion between Ewan McGregor’s Obi-Wan Kenobi and Hayden Christensen's Darth Vader was one of the most highly anticipated moments this year for Star Wars fans. When they first crossed paths, it didn’t exactly go as many may have expected; Kenobi was crushed and broken. While he didn’t fare well in his first encounter, there are still two more episodes of Obi-Want Kenobi to see the scales get balanced.

The newest Lucasfilm Disney+ series has now aired four installments of its six on the streaming service. The story at play, and its viewership numbers, make it one of the biggest Star Wars epics to hit live-action thus far, bringing in elements from Star Wars Rebels like the Grand Inquisitor and tying heavily to the prequel trilogy. Therefore, it is decidedly strange to be watching the series at home instead of on a big screen where it arguably belongs.

Will it ever be possible to witness the events of the show in the cinemas, like fans did for eleven other Star Wars films? While The Mandalorian and Book of Boba Fett never got the honor, it seems that Ewan McGregor’s return will get the chance to shine in a whole new way.

As pointed out by Reddit user r/Ezio926, a listing on Canadian movie theatre chain Cineplex's website indicates that Lucasfilm and Disney plan on hosting screenings of Obi-Wan Kenobi’s entire six-episode run in select theaters on Wednesday, June 22 - the day the series finale airs on Disney Plus.

The total running time for the event will clock in at 5 hours and 20 minutes, which will include a live Q&A with a currently unknown panel of participants.

This is the first Disney+ series to get its entire season screened in North American theaters. However, it's not the first Disney+ show to receive such cinematic treatment worldwide - Marvel Studios' latest series, Ms. Marvel, will be theatrically releasing episodes in pairs on June 16, June 30, and July 14 in Pakistan due to the streaming service not being available in the country.
