While the art cards don't give much away in terms of story, they do suggest that Obi-Wan Kenobi will be a show for new and veteran Star Wars fans alike when it premieres on May 27th, bringing a fresh perspective to the character and aiming to please prequel and original trilogy fans alike with its costume, character, and ship design. McGregor's Obi-Wan, in particular, was a highlight for many viewers and it's exciting that the character can be more fully explored in his very own series. The Star Wars prequels were not well received at the time of their release in the early 2000s, but the three films have since garnered a more positive reputation.

With the series taking place relatively close to the events of 1977's Star Wars, the art cards also hint that a number of classic ship and character designs will be making a return.
