I don’t have Disney+ or watch TV, but when I see clips on YouTube, Matt Lanter sounds nothing like Hayden Christensen but Ewan McGregor and James Arnold Taylor sound similar

Today is the birthday of actor Ewan McGregor, who plays Obi-Wan Kenobi in The Prequel Trilogy and the Disney+ series, "Obi-Wan Kenobi".
🎂 HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO EWAN! 🎂

First, you got his uncle Dennis Lawson who played Wedge Antilles in the original trilogy.
Then, you got his daughter Esther Rose McGregor who had a cameo in Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Lastly, you got his wife Mary Elizabeth Winstead who plays Hera Syndulla in the Ahsoka show.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of The Phantom Menace, and, by extension, the Prequel Trilogy as a whole. There’s been some minor announcements this week regarding the milestone, and I think they’re worth talking about.
Firstly, it was announced earlier today (to no one’s surprise, really) that The Phantom Menace will return to theaters on May 4th weekend to celebrate the film’s anniversary.
With The Bad Batch ending just short of May 4th, there was speculation that something would fill the date, and now we have our answer. This reaffirms Lucasfilm’s commitment to bringing the old films back to theaters. We saw ROTJ get a theatrical run last year for its 40th anniversary, and with TPM getting similar treatment, I think we can expect this trend to continue. Next year would be TESB’s 45th anniversary, and ROTS’ 20th, so maybe one or both of those films hit the big screen in 2025.
But, beyond that, I’d bet on Acolyte marketing to kick into gear alongside TPM’s return to theaters. It would make a ton of sense as the show is essentially a prequel to the prequels.
The other bit of Prequel news this week came from Empire Magazine who announced a special issue to celebrate Lucas’ second trilogy. The issue has some gorgeous cover art, and features interviews with the likes of Hayden Christensen, Ewan McGregor, Natalie Portman, and Samuel L. Jackson (who I’m betting will be using the opportunity to once again campaign for Mace Windu’s survival lol). But perhaps most exciting of all, and I genuinely mean this, is the triumphant return of our Lord and Savior Rick McCallum. If you know you know.
The issue releases on Thursday, February 15, and, as your resident Prequel Stan, I’ll be picking up a copy as soon as I can get my hands on one.
And just look at this:
Let me know if any of you will be checking out the Empire issue, or seeing TPM in theaters for Star Wars day!
Have a good day, everyone.

It can be actors, musicians, writers, directors, producers, authors, etc.
I'll go first.
Edit: I changed it to five because I just couldn't pick three! Sorry for any confusion.
Dave Filoni
Why would I choose Dave Filoni? It's kriffing DAVE FILONI!!! I really love his writing and he is basically Star Wars now.
2. Sam Witwer
Seems like an all-around great guy! Great actor and voice actor. Love his version of Maul plus I think he also voiced Starkiller. Also a total sci-fi geek. Gotta love him.
3. Ewan McGregor
...He's Obi-Wan Kenobi, need I have to say more?
4.Dee Bradley Baker
This man is amazing. He is such a talented voice actor and so versatile. He has played so many characters in so many different fandoms and yet he is still able to make each clone sound unique!
5. John Williams
Amazing musician and still going strong at what, 91?

Apologies for bringing up such old news that may have already been debunked, dare I say potential spoilers that will come to pass (Season 2?), but whatever happened to the supposed report that Ewan McGregor shows up on Andor? One could dismiss this one source, but there were multiple articles on it.
Was there any truth to this or was it simply a rumor that everyone went with?
Thanks for any clarification.

Thought I'd share this since it's becoming a big issue.
Nobody should have to be bullied just because you don't like the content they're putting out. Sure, you may not like Reva as a character, but it gives you no right to harass another human being.
Check out this cool conversation with Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen! Such a wholesome video, I love seeing these two back together:
Did any of you know that Denis Lawson who portrayed Wedge Antilles is the maternal uncle of Ewan McGregor?!?! Who portrayed OBI WAN KENOBI! I figured that out just now watching a interview with Ewan McGregor.
