Precisely the creative mind behind the series, commented on the temporality of his work in the Star Wars universe line.
“For us the story takes place 10 years after Revenge of the Sith. So we’re together in the middle of the prequels and the original trilogy,” Chow told ew. “And it really is a character story about Obi-Wan. And, for the most part, the story we’ve been trying to tell is his journey as he came from the end of Revenge of the Sith, with all the pain and tragedy of what happened in that ending, to becoming the calm and peaceful Alec Guinness who appeared in A NewHope. So we’re trying to tell that transition moment and how it got there.”
