Ewan McGregor is calling out "Star Wars" fans after "Obi-Wan Kenobi" star Moses Ingram received racist comments online.
McGregor, 51, said Ingram, 29, is a "brilliant actor, she's a brilliant woman and she's absolutely amazing in this series. She brings so much to the series, she brings so much to the franchise. It just sickened me to my stomach to hear that this had been happening."

@Real Deal What does it mean that you’re black power? Are you black supremacy? If it is okay for you to embrace black power, then how do you feel about white power? Or Asian power? Or whatever?
Moses continue to do you. You are gifted . Know your worth and continue doing good acting. 👍
money makes one say strange things 🤐
Wonder if Billy Dee dealt w This? 🛸🌏🤔
go woke go broke
How’s it woke ? 💡. It breaking records as far as ppl watching it .
You judge a person by character, NOT BY THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN!!!!
Hello
How about merit?
Didn’t think I could love you more mr. Mcgregor…there’s no place for racism in any galaxy

The lack of success has nothing to do with imagined racism and everything to do with terrible writing and childish acting. Moses Ingram’s portrayal of Reva comes off as a terrible and cringey Star Wars cosplayer. The writing and acting of the character do not fit with how inquisitors behave or how the Empire deals with insubordination.
The portrayal of the Grand Inquisitor also is a far cry from the character set out in “Rebels”.
The show is just a mess.
So your saying its okay to attack both the actor and character, you should get some help mate
My comment got deleted.
I called you a misogynist.
Then said you probably have never been with a woman.
-Love, main stream media
@Mando 501st You are the one that needs help since you don’t understand the difference between “attacking” someone and criticizing someone’s performance. They are not synonymous, though the woke crowd believes so.
The executive producer guarding his investment.
Let be honest…REALLY HONEST.
The inquisitors were all cast HORRIBLY.
Wtf is up with the fat grand inquisitor!?
Ok, the Chinese 5th brother isn’t bad. Obviously done Chinese to appeal the the Chinese market. But he pulled it off ok.
But this girl is Totally wrong.
Poorly portrayed, awfully written.
Aight, you’ve done it, I’ma go get a download.
Come on, everybody, how are these circus freaks ever going to get a job if they don’t appear in Star Wars?
C’mon, Ewan.
This is not about racism. It’s about all the woke trash in your titular show. The show is titled, “Obi-Wan”. It’s not titled “Reva and Leia: Co-Starring Obi-Wan.”
A lot of racism in the star wars community.
Its crazy to thing that in a universe full of a wide range of species people are upset and how they cast 3 characters 🤔.
just watched the 3 episode …mind blown vader actually put a fear in me and im a grown man..lol…i think the actor moses is great
They haven’t proven this. Why are you stupidly repeating these allegations as if they had? Disney/Lucasfilm has a history of unfairly tarnishing Star Wars fans.
I wish the fandom could hire Johnny’s legal team….
Huh ??? They are literally on her page you clown
How tf does SHE have racist fans sending her racism? lol
Release the messages or quit seeking attention.
Trump lost so stop crying…you think she lying??? Woow dude u need to grow up
