Edgerton was relatively unknown outside of Australia when Lucas cast him as Anakin’s brother-in-law and Luke’s surly uncle-to-be, Owen Lars, in Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. What actually brought us here today was the fact that we found out Edgerton will reprise the role in the upcoming Obi-Wan TV series, alongside Bonnie Piesse as Beru. Since 2002, he’s starred in major motion pictures like Zero Dark Thirty, Kinky Boots, King Arthur, and The Great Gatsby, plus the very cool Midnight Special—and written and directed a few others, too. He also has a role in the highly-anticipated The Green Knight starring Dev Patel.
