Actor Ewan McGregor may reprise his role, playing Obi-Wan's Force ghost in the sequel, currently going simply by Star Wars: Episode VIII. The rumor is unsourced, but being reported by Kristian Harloff of Schmoes Know and Collider, who simply tweeted, "Grain of salt: hearing that Ewan Mcgregor in talks to play Obi Force ghost in Episode 8." but it does provide an opportunity to pose the question: should McGregor play an Obi-Wan Force ghost in Episode VIII? It certainly is an interesting proposition, and probably one Lucasfilm would be up for. After all, Abrams did bring McGregor in late the game to record a line of dialogue for The Force Awakens. And the actor is more than happy to be part of the franchise again, saying that he waited for a call from Lucasfilm for years. Odds are, viewers will see Luke?s former teachers on the big screen again in some capacity. It was recently revealed that a Yoda scene was cut from Episode VII during development, even after Frank Oz did ?a whole bunch of Yoda.?
