Star Wars' Jake Lloyd Receiving Treatment After 'Full-Blown Psychotic Break,' Mom Updates On His Health

“Star Wars” is set to make a grand return this June with the highly-anticipated Disney+ series “Star Wars: The Acolyte.” A recent feature from Entertainment Weekly has shed light on the character played by actress Dafne Keen (“Logan”), a young Jedi, the Padawan of Lee Jung-jae’s Jedi Master Sol. The series revolves around the enigmatic murder mystery of multiple Jedi, a case that Sol is determined to solve.

For years, Ewan McGregor was forced to play coy or straight-up lie about a return to the “Star Wars” universe as the Jedi knight Obi-Wan Kenobi. But once the 2022 “Obi-Wan Kenobi” series on Disney+ aired, the actor seemingly couldn’t help but talk about it.

The list of “Star Wars” films and series announced in recent years that haven’t come to pass is too long to list but includes an unrealized new trilogy from Rian Johnson, a movie from Taika Waiti that may or may not get made, “Rangers Of The Republic,” a still-unmade “Lando” series, Patty Jenkins’ “Rogue Squadron” (which may have some life in it still) and an unproduced trilogy by the creators of “Game Of Thrones.” READ MORE: ‘Star Wars’: James Mangold His Dawn Of The Force Film Will Pre-Date The Existence Of Jedi & Jedi Order Shortly after “Game Of Thrones” ended, creators and writers David Benioff and D.B.

“No one’s ever really gone,” Luke Skywalker famously said in 2017’s “Star Wars – Episode VIII – The Last Jedi.” A poignant line about memory and those we keep dear in our hearts, the line arguably had the double ironic meaning of how no one ever actually ever dies in genre films, especially not in “Star Wars,” thanks to the whole Force Ghost conceit. Speaking of Force Ghosts, while Liam Neeson made a brief appearance in 2022’s “Obi-Wan Kenobi” series starring Ewan McGregor, the actor doesn’t seem interested in much more beyond that brief cameo.
