And our crew, in this series, there are a lot of real Star Wars fans in the crew. It’s amazing. They totally got used to me being there, and then Hayden arrived on his first day which was incredible. He was there. Hundreds of people behind the cameras. I’d look around and I would go, ‘I didn’t see a lot of people on the set. What’s going on?” Then we start training and Hayden came out as Vader and I said, “Of course. Everyone is here to see Vader.” He was really nice, and I hope, for him, he feels that love from everyone. And for sure today, it was incredible. I’ve never had a party or anything like that. It was absolutely unbelievable.” .

I always felt like there was a story in between. the third episode Where I end up playing Obi-Wan in movies and Episode four Where Alec Guinness is Obi-Wan Kenobi.
