New Star Wars series debuts May 27 on Disney+
We have officially arrived the week of the grand opening of “Obi-Wan Kenobi”, a new series from the “Star Wars” universe, and Disney+ in the UK has made a list of productions that fans should marathon before launch.
The idea is that the content of the universe, which today consists of films and series, is fresh in the public’s memory to live an even deeper experience, without losing any reference.
Our calendar for the 7 days is looking ???? Whether you’re starting from scratch or catching up, we can all agree we’re excited for #ObiWanKenobi.

Starting with the three films of the prequel trilogy, consisting of “Phantom Menace” (1999), “Attack of the Clones” (2002) and “Revenge of the Sith” (2005), in which Ewan McGregor reinterpret Obi-Wan for the first time.
The list made by the streaming included some episodes of “The Clone Wars”, an animated series that depicts the adventures of the Jedi Master alongside Anakin Skywalkeryour then padawan.
Interestingly, Disney+ only included a few production-specific episodes, such as Season 2’s 12-16, Season 4’s 15-18, and Season 5’s 16-16. The website ScreenRant noted that the chapters mentioned are precisely the ones that present Obi-Wan’s romance with the Duchess Satine Kryzean aristocrat from the planet Mandalore.
In chronological order, the animation chapters should be seen before “Revenge of the Sith”.
