Neeson starred in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, portraying Qui-Gon Jinn, a character who serves as a Jedi Master of Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor). And while Jinn died in the movie, returning dead characters in some way is a common occurrence in the Star Wars universe.

When asked by host Jimmy Kimmel whether he will be involved in the Obi-Wan Kenobi series, Neeson had a disappointing answer for the Star Wars fans. “I heard Ewan McGregor was gonna do a series. No, I don’t think so. No, I haven’t been approached,” he said before jokingly adding that the producers “don’t have enough money” to lure him back.

Check out his response in full in the video below at the 06:50 mark.

Obi-Wan Kenobi television series will follow the adventures of the titular character, taking place 10 years after the events in 2005’s Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith. McGregor returns as a Kenobi, with Hayden Christensen also being set to reprise his role of Darth Vader.

The series will have a limited character, with six episodes being planned. It is expected to premiere at some point in 2022.

While previous reports announced that Jai Courtney will star as the FBI agent in the romantic-drama-meets-action thriller, Deadline now reports that Robert Patrick is in talks to board the project as the law enforcement man.

Honest Thief was co-written by Steve Allrich and Ozark co-creator Mark Williams. The film follows bank robber Tom Carter (Neeson), who finds the love of his life, Annie (Walsh). Annie happens to work at the front desk of a storage facility where he hid $7 million in stolen loot. They fall head over heels, and he resolves to wipe the slate clean by turning himself in.

According to the outlet, Courtney is still on board, with Jeffery Donovan and Anthony Ramos rounding out the cast.

Patrick’s other credits include Netflix’s The Laundromat and The Poison Rose.
