The news out of Disney Investor Day has been non-stop, but I bet no one saw their latest shock announcement, that Hayden Christensen would be returning as Darth Vader in the Obi-Wan Kenobi Disney+ series, would be among the announcements. Sure enough, the news is legit, being confirmed on the official Star Wars Twitter account along with a tease of the show's logo.

So far details are scant, but another guy we might see return to the Star Wars universe via Disney+ is Donald Glover, with the news dropping today that Dear White People's Justin Simien is in fact working on a Lando Calrissian series at the streamer. Now, there's no confirmation that Glover will be back, but I couldn't imagine him not being involved, given how well-received his turn as the iconic character was. Fun fact – Simien is a huge sci-fi geek. You may not get that from his work, but it's true! He'll nail a Star Wars show.
