If there’s one problem that just about every “Star Wars” actor seems to face, it’s resisting the urge to make lightsaber noises while using one on set. Fortunately, Ewan McGregor found a workaround for the issue on the new Disney+ series “Obi-Wan Kenobi”: playing John Williams’ score while filming.
McGregor has long joked about how much he struggled on the prequel trilogy with not making the sound effects himself while wielding a lightsaber, as has Anakin Skywalker actor Hayden Christensen. Both have poked fun at themselves over the years for ruining takes because they were making the iconic noises.
