    No, Jar Jar Will NOT Be Appearing in Disney+ “Kenobi” Series

    For what ever reason, a rumor has been circulating for some time that Naboo Senator Jar Jar Binks would be making an appearance in “Kenobi.” It would make sense in a way, right? Jar Jar still kicking around 10 years after “Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith.”

    Disney+’s upcoming limited series recently announced their ‘full’ official cast list, and Jar Jar actor Ahmed Best was not included. No word on if Liam Neeson as Gui Gon Jinn would appear as a Force ghost or not (spoiler- he really wants to). Anakin Skywalker / Darth Vader actor Hayden Christensen *IS* returning for “Kenobi,” though.

    Best even offered a straight answer on his Twitter when recently asked by a fan if he was part of the show.

    Thanks for the love, but I will not be in this series. As much as I would’ve loved to be a part of it. But I’m ecstatic to see folks who I love dearly back together doing great things. https://t.co/5bzLq9yslh

    We would actually love to see Best involved in “Kenobi,” given the right story elements. His hosting of the “Star Wars” live action competition series “Jedi Temple Challenge” was wonderful, and Jedi Master Kelleran Beq needs to be in more stuff.

    “Kenobi” is filming right now, and we’ll let you know what we hear about updates for that and other productions.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
