It's official, "Star Wars" fans!
Ewan McGregor will reprise his beloved role as Obi-Wan Kenobi in a "Star Wars" series on Disney's upcoming streaming service, Disney Plus.
McGregor surprised fans at biannual fan convention D23 Expo on Friday to confirm his return to the "Star Wars" universe in an untitled series.
"We have all the scripts written," Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy told fans at the Disney Plus panel. "We're ready to start production next year."
McGregor said he had been keeping the project secret for about four years.
Deadline previously reported McGregor was in talks to reprise his role for a "Star Wars" series.
In 2017, McGregor told sister site Business Insider he was down to return to his role as the Jedi Knight.
"Listen, I have been asked about it a lot, to the point where it looks a bit like I'm sort of touting for work," said McGregor. "I've been very open to say I'd be happy to do it, if they want to do it."
There is no release date yet for the upcoming series.
The first trailer for "The Mandalorian," the first "Star Wars"-themed show to stream on Disney Plus was revealed Friday afternoon. The series will premiere on the streaming service at launch on Tuesday, November 12.
