‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’ writer explains the approach to that spine-chilling Jedi tomb scene

In Obi-Wan Kenobi, we’re confronted with a broken hero who’d like nothing worse than to remind himself of what he left behind 10 years ago, when he chose the name of Ben and wandered the deserts of Tatooine in search of tranquility.

It stands to reason, then, that Lucasfilm’s job in this new narrative was to bring him to face exactly what he’d avoided in that time. Regardless of how you may feel about the new Star Wars show on Disney Plus, or whether you believe it’s managed to stick the landing, the writers have done a brilliant job of depicting the trauma Obi-Wan carries around on his conscience, not only feeling like he’s responsible for Anakin’s fall to the dark side, but also the fall of the Galactic Republic and the Jedi Order too.
