The underwater tank set will feature a scene where Obi-Wan fights with droids. - RM

One shot shows Mace Windu and Obi-Wan Kenobi lit by the slotted blinds of Yoda's quarters. This shot will last 8 seconds. -OS

Obi-Wan watched a holographic image in one scene. -OS

"Ewan McGregor can just do anything. I've known Ewan for years and whatever you give him to do, he can do it. I would have thought that no one could have become better than Ewan--after Phantom and Attack of the Clones, he just looked like the best. But Hayden learned fast and is now leagues ahead of everybody. He is terrifying!" -NG

"I developed different styles for the characters, and gave each of them a flaw or a bonus. So with Obi, for instance, he's got a very business-like style--when he was younger he could border on the flashy and might twirl his lightsaber a bit, because he was taught by Qui-Gon. Qui-Gon was brash, that rubbed off on Obi and Obi then taught Anakin, who was way too old to learn anyway." -NG

Ewan [McGregor, Obi-Wan Kenobi] had 1,000 moves to learn, as opposed to the three pages he had to learn in The Phantom Menace. -NG

Obi-Wan and Padme are close friends in Ep3. -PH

"One of the things that will get explained in the films is how Ben was able to retain his identity, because it happened somewhere in between the third and fourth movies. It is a discipline that he learned from Yoda. We don't ever get to see how he does it, but the idea of retaining your identity after you've passed on is something that Ben learned as a Jedi." -PH and GL

Obi-Wan is among the main characters with stunt work demanding enough to require digital doubling and mock heads of the character, created in exact detail. -OS
