Description

This week's Did You Hear That?, the news segment from our Thursday night live Star Wars Fan Talk Show, ATGLive, brings you the top headlines from the galaxy far, far away. Get ready for updates on The Acolyte, a potential Kenobi Season 2, and the biggest Star Wars collections uniting to create a groundbreaking museum experience. Here’s what we’re covering:

Jodie Turner-Smith Speaks Out
In a candid interview with Glamour, The Acolyte star Jodie Turner-Smith opens up about the lack of support from Disney amid online harassment targeting the show’s diverse cast. She highlights how Amandla Stenberg, her co-star, deeply committed to their roles but received little public backing from the studio when they faced social media vitriol. Turner-Smith calls for Disney to take a stronger public stance against racism and hate, echoing the experiences of stars like John Boyega. Her words serve as a call for greater accountability in how studios protect their talent.

Ewan McGregor Teases Kenobi Season 2
At LA Comic Con, Ewan McGregor thrilled fans by hinting at ongoing discussions for a second season of Obi-Wan Kenobi. McGregor expressed his desire to explore the Clone Wars era in more depth, sharing his eagerness to return to flashback scenes with Hayden Christensen. While the original series was designed as a limited run, McGregor’s passion and Lucasfilm’s interest in continuing Obi-Wan’s story have given fans renewed hope. The excitement for more adventures with the beloved Jedi Master is palpable as Lucasfilm keeps the door open for new stories.

New Star Wars Saga Museum in the Works
In exciting news for collectors and fans, the Rancho Obi-Wan Fundraiser announced the creation of The Saga Museum, a project that will unite the most iconic Star Wars collections in the world. Steve Sansweet’s Rancho Obi-Wan collection, along with the treasures of Gus Lopez, Duncan Jenkins, and Lisa Stevens & Vic Wertz, will merge into an immersive museum experience. With over 1.5 million Star Wars objects, this museum will offer fans a chance to dive deep into the legacy of the Star Wars universe. While it’s still a few years away, anticipation is building as details of this extraordinary project unfold.
