KumailNanjiani reveals how working on ObiWanKenobi compared to Eternals
✖ Kumail Nanjiani made waves with his incredible body transformation for Marvel Studios' film based on The Eternals. The actor was known for us very regular look and then he turned into an Adonis for his superhero role. Since then, Nanjiani has landed a role in another Disney project with the upcoming Star Wars limited series based on Obi-Wan Kenobi. The two franchises are fairly different, so you'd assume that the production process would be equally different and you'd be right.
"I would go into work and they'd be like, 'Oh, you know what we did yesterday? We did this. And then we did this, and then we did this.' And everyone was just really excited to go to work every day. This is stuff that everybody's loved since they can remember, and the fact that they get to work on it was not lost on this crew. So the joy of it for the crew really was unique and special." The actor added.
"For me, across the prequels, through the original trilogy, there's a love-story dynamic with these two that goes through the whole thing," Chow revealed to Vanity Fair."I felt like it was quite hard to not[include] the person who left Kenobi in such anguish in the series… What's special about that relationship is that they loved each other."
