The iconic sound (a combo platter of James Earl Jones and mechanical breathing). He has it all: the iconic look (black armor, red lightsaber).
N.R.ĭarth Vader is arguably the most iconic character in the history of pop culture. Is it a form of psychological self-flagellation? A punishment for his failings as a Jedi and a teacher? Is it a fate he inflicts on himself, to wander the desert planet as a nomadic loner, to make sure another promising Jedi doesn't follow his father's footsteps? Find out on Obi-Wan Kenobi. He then banishes himself to Tatooine to protect the son of his former apprentice from a safe distance. Ultimately, he faces more devastating circumstances: The boy he raised to become a Force-wielding hero is seduced toward the dark side, becoming one of the most powerful Sith Lords in the known universe.
The Jedi apprentice is forced to become a Jedi master, fulfilling Qui-Gon Jinn's lingering wish to train up Anakin Skywalker.
Regardless of how each sector of the fandom feels about the prequels, all seem to agree that Ewan McGregor is iconic as a young Obi-Wan, pulling back the layers of someone who Alec Guinness already turned into a legend. We don't need a separate Disney+ series to appreciate the tragic and tumultuous story of Obi-Wan Kenobi, although we welcome one.
