While tying a video game into the actual Star Wars Universe might seem far-fetched at first, it’s worth pointing out that Fallen Order is a part of Star Wars canon and takes place a few years before the events of this Obi-Wan Kenobi series. One of the only other known Jedis during this time is a former apprentice that survived the Order 66 and starred in the Star Wars video game, Jedi: Fallen Order. The Great Purge happened around the same time as the Obi-Wan Kenobi series is set, so it could provide a great opportunity to show an event that’s only been hinted at in The Mandalorian. Katan was the last person to wield the Mandalorian lightsaber, known as the Dark Saber, before The Mandalorian's big bad Moff Gideon got his hands on it during an event known as The Great Purge, which saw the Empire attack Mandalore. This is another character that Obi-Wan would’ve known from The Clone Wars series, and including her in this Obi-Wan Kenobi show would be particularly interesting to fans of The Mandalorian. She is portrayed by the same actress who voiced the character in her animated form, Katee Sackhoff. We recently saw Bo Katan's live-action debut in the second season of The Mandalorian. Satine is another logical character for the already announced cast member Indira Varma to play. Check out Star Wars: Clone Wars to get the full story behind Satine and Obi-Wan. While the events of their love affair eventually see Satine murdered by Darth Maul in front of Obi-Wan, it wouldn’t be shocking to find Obi-Wan troubled by these memories with some flashbacks, just like Anakin's turn to the Dark Side. While Anakin's love led him to join the Dark Side for fear of losing Padme, Obi-Wan did the opposite, turning his back on the Mandalorian ruler Satine Kryze, with whom he had fallen in love, to preserve his vows as a Jedi. If you only follow the Star Wars live-action universe, first of all, you're missing out, and secondly, you might be surprised to learn that, before Anakin’s love for Padme turned him to the Dark Side, Obi-Wan was tempted by love in a similar way. We know at least part of the show will take place on Tattooine, after all, and Jabba's criminal empire rules the back-water planet as much or more than the Empire. Here's another classic Star Wars character that'd make sense for us to see in the series. Sure, he's dead, but it would make sense to see him in both flashbacks and as a Force ghost keeping Obi-Wan company in his desert hideout. It wouldn't shock us to see Liam Neeson return to the Star Wars Universe as Kenobi's former Jedi master, Qui-Gon Jinn. And, rumours have been swirling about a Maul return in the Kenobi series, but we wonder how effective it would be since the two have a climactic showdown in Star Wars: Rebels that sees Obi-Wan finally kill Maul for good (we think), Qui-Gon Jinn We know Maul survived being chopped in half by Obi-Wan at the end of The Phantom Menace, as the character appeared at the end of Solo: A Star Wars Story as well in the animated series Star Wars: Clone Wars and Star Wars: Rebels. Still, we know Obi-Wan was intent on watching over the boy at the end of Revenge of the Sith, and the trailers so far show that we'll get a glimpse at Luke as a young moisture farmer on Tattooine. That probably won't happen in this Obi-Wan Kenobi series, as the future leader of the Rebellion will be around 10 years old. There's been a ton of rumours swirling amid a fan-led campaign that Disney will eventually introduce a younger version of Luke portrayed by Sebastian Stan. Obi-Wan and Ahsoka talk about Anakin in The Clone Wars ( watch here), which shows the relationship between the three characters. One new theory is that the casting of Indira Varma could point to her portraying a younger version of Ahsoka. She was Anakin's former apprentice and feels more guilt about his turning into Darth Vader than anyone except for Obi-Wan himself. It wouldn't be shocking to see her included in the series, as she's close to the two main characters we know are going to be featured. We know that Rosario Dawson's Ahsoka Tano is getting her own Disney+ show that's set around The Mandalorian, which is about 20 years after the show Obi-Wan Kenobi takes place. Here's a look at some of the most intriguing ones. We know Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader will definitely appear in the show, but what about other Star Wars characters? Only a few have been confirmed so far, but there are plenty of theories about potential appearances. LucasFilm Ltd Obi-Wan Kenobi: Rumours and theories
