After waiting weeks, fans have finally seen the entire Obi-Wan Kenobi series. While fans are divided about certain events that happened in the series — like Reva surviving — Ewan McGregor managed to recreate an iconic moment.

Owen Lars (Joel Edgerton) offers Obi-Wan the chance to say hi to Luke Skywalker and give him the toy fans see him play with in Star Wars: Episode IV — A New Hope (1977), and the Jedi Master surprises fans by saying, “Hello there.” This line was actually said first by Alec Guinness in A New Hope but was said again by Ewan in Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith (2005).

Fans lost their mind when hearing the iconic line said once again:

Obi Wan Finally Saying “Hello There”

YEAAAAAAA BABY THAT’S WHAT I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THAT’S WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT FINALLY THE HELLO THERE

“HELLO THERE” YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS

Obi-Wan said hello there. I’m not okay.

One fan made the connection that Obi-Wan Kenobi honors A New Hope by making Ewan’s first words to Luke be the same as he did in the series which is a great callback for the fan-favorite line:

“hello there” the first thing he said when he first met luke in kenobi series and when he saw luke again in a new hope

Now fans are wondering if Obi-Wan Kenobi will get a second season since Vader still wants to find his old Jedi Master and Obi-Wan surely isn’t safe from the Empire. Fans will learn sooner or later if Lucasfilm plans to do a second season for the series.
