17 years since he last played the wise Jedi Master up on the big screen, actor Ewan McGregor will soon breathe new life into his beloved 'Star Wars' character in the highly-anticipated 'Obi-Wan Kenobi' series jeffconway
McGregor tells me, “I don’t find myself guilty of needing the latest iPhone or needing the latest television. I’ve never really been like that. I love traveling and my hobbies tend to revolve around things that can take me places. I really daydream about trips and I’ve been lucky to ride [my motorcycle] all around the world with my friend Charlie and make documentaries of those trips to inspire other people to maybe do the same thing.
He goes on to tell me that his mentality with work and business changed when his Netflix limited series shutdown in the middle of production in March 2020 when the Covid-19 lockdowns began. With production not starting up again until September 2020, McGregor says that gave him an unusual amount of quality time with his family at home, something that has changed his perspective on where he chooses to dedicate his time most in this current chapter of his life.
With McGregor’s newfound outlook on life, he has even found a way to mix family with filmmaking. He goes on to tell me that he just shot a movie that one of his daughters Clara starred in, wrote, and produced. The project allowed McGregor and her to play father and daughter on-screen together, something he recalls as an amazing experience.
“Just how lucky I’ve been,” McGregor reveals. “I really have been involved in some lovely projects and there’s sort of wonder to it. I like films like- they’re sort of dreamers films, you know? They’re big, proper movies that tell great stories and with really great people. To get to play for a living, I count my lucky stars every day - I love it! I’m so happy with all of the work I’ve been able to do. There’s no favorites for me.
