Obi-Wan Kenobi: Wizard of the Desert

A complicated, flawed man unable to overcome the dark forces that claimed his friend and pupil, but who is at least able to inspire a young boy to become a Jedi and challenge the darkness that has taken hold of the universe. That's Obi-Wan Kenobi - for many the linchpin of the entire Star Wars saga. With some choice quotes from Alec Guinness and Ewan McGregor, Insider examines the life and times of Obi-Wan in the latest issue, from his training at the Jedi Temple to his later years as Luke Skywalker's secret guardian on Tattooine.
James Arnold Taylor

In keeping with the Obi-Wan Kenobi theme in the latest issue of Insider, we interview the actor who voices the Jedi master in Star Wars: The Clone Wars. James Arnold Taylor, who is the heroic Green Arrow on Batman: The Brave and the Bold, Harry Osborn on The Spectacular Spider-Man, and the new voice of modern Stone Age family man Fred Flinstone, tells us how playing a major role in the Star Wars saga fulfils a life-long dream: "I lived and breathed Star Wars as a kid. We played all the time - but I was always Han Solo. If someone told me I was going to be Obi-Wan Kenobi, I would have been like, 'Wait, I'm the old guy?'"
