Star Wars day may be over, but the celebration of the franchise goes all month long for many. Just in the immediate future, the first two episodes of Obi-Wan Kenobi release on May 27, and the Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim, California takes place from May 26 to May 29. It is there that EA is expected to reveal Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 2 to the world.

Ewan McGregor recently appeared on the Jimmy Kimmel show, virtual, where the host interviewed him on a variety of topics (as reported by IGN). Ewan McGregor praised Obi-Wan Kenobi director Deborah Chow, stating she really knew her stuff when it comes to all the Star Wars universe multimedia, including video games. He would go on to say that all the Star Wars storylines have to match up and adds that there can’t be “some fact in a video game that doesn’t match up with the movie.”

It's no secret that Jedi: Fallen Order protagonist Cal Kestis and Obi-Wan Kenobi face the same enemy: Darth Vader and his Inquisitors. Both Jedi are being hunted, and both are set in the same timeframe. A connection between the two seems obvious, and it’s perhaps easiest with the Inquisitors. At the same time, perhaps this could go a step forward and players could see a Cal Kestis jumping to live-action. It wouldn’t be hard given that Cal’s appearance is based on that of his actor, Cameron Monaghan.

While Obi-Wan Kenobi connecting to the already-released Jedi: Fallen Order could be the easiest route, connecting the Obi-Wan Kenobi debut to the Star Wars Celebration reveal of JFO2 isn’t impossible either. They're so close that some synergy or connection between the two would be great for both. Perhaps, instead of—or alongside—a Cal Kestis cameo in Obi-Wan Kenobi, Obi-Wan could appear in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 2 too.

This is all, of course, speculation based on Ewan McGregor’s comment. In its simplest terms, it may be referencing Darth Vader's Inquisitors, but it’s a small statement that could also pack a serious punch. Either way, fans will just have to wait and see how all this shakes out at the end of the month.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 2 is reportedly in development.
