Of course, being involved in such a valuable intellectual property meant staying
mum on the details, even when the enthusiasm was close to home. "One of the
things that I loved so much about the privilege of working on Obi-Wan Kenobi, is Obi-Wan Kenobi, is Obi-Wan Kenobi,
my friends' kids who can barely contain themselves with excitement. It's very hard
to say, 'I really can't say anything….' My oldest friend has a son who made his own
Mandalorian costume while I was working on Obi-Wan Kenobi, and it just got better Obi-Wan Kenobi, and it just got better Obi-Wan Kenobi,
and better. I thought, 'Wow, I'm hiring you in this department in a few years….'"
This weighty responsibility was not lost on the cast either. "Every actor came in
excited," Larlarb explains, "but the minute they donned the costume it hit them.
It was like handing over the holy grail every time. You could see the little kid in
everybody just be like, 'Wow, I'm wearing a Star Wars costume.'"
