Obi-Wan and Vader's New Fight Will Set a Record
The fight between Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader in the Star Wars series will be the third such duel in the history of live-action films and series. However, there are a few „buts”.

In December announced that there will be another epic duel between the two aforementioned characters.
Screen Rant has conducted an interesting analysis of the situation, which suggests that the fight between Kenobi and Dark Side Skywalker will be the third in the history of live-action movies and TV series, breaking the record previously shared with such duels as Rey against Kylo Ren and Luke Skywalker against his father.
Of course, we do not include all the Star Wars animated features, because if we do that, we see that the number of three battles between two characters has long been exceeded by such pairs as Obi-Wan vs Darth Maul or Anakin vs Count Dooku. This is all thanks to Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars: Rebels.
Also, keep in mind that this may be Obi-Wan's third fight with Vader in live-action features, but only the second for Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen. The first lightsaber duel took place back in the original trilogy, specifically in A New Hope, the first Star Wars movie to be released. At the time, the role of Ben Kenobi was played by Alec Guinness, with David Prowse as Vader.
Work on Obi-Wan Kenobi will begin soon. We do not yet know when the production will appear on Disney+.
