Disney Plus is set to unveil the trailer for the new Star Wars franchise ‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’ after filming for the TV series took place in Perthshire.
Crews were spotted filming near Glen Tilt for the series earlier this year, with the show set to air from 2022.
Part of the trailer has already leaked online, with keen-eyed fans suggesting the series could see the return of Darth Vader.
The leak shows Perth native Ewan McGregor discussing the show and what fans should expect with director Deborah Chow.
It will be released in full today as part of Disney Plus day, a series of promotions by Disney to promote new and upcoming content on its streaming platforms.
Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen from the Star Wars prequels will reprise their roles as Obi-Wan and Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader.
Speaking about the show previously, Mr McGregor said: “It will be interesting to take a character we know in a way and show him – well, his arc will be quite interesting, I think, dealing with the fact that all the Jedi were slaughtered with the end of Episode III.
“It’s quite something to get over.”

We reported earlier this year how production for the series had taken place at Glen Tilt, north of Blair Atholl.
A camp for cast and crew was set up while a number of film sets were built at various points along the River Tilt.
Staff on the Highland Perthshire remained tight-lipped when asked what they were working on, and locals were said to have been sworn to secrecy.
Asked by a Courier reporter if the project was Star Wars related, a crew member said: “You’re not far off.”
