WBZ reports Ewan McGregor will reprise his role as a younger Obi-Wan Kenobi in filming next month in Boston as part of a series about his adventures on Tatooine, "a harsh desert world where farmers toil in the heat of two suns while trying to protect themselves and their loved ones from the marauding Tusken Raiders."

Now this is podracing.
You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
Guess they will be filming on the Tremont side of the Common.
They missed their chance to use Parrotta's Alpine Lodge
in Chelsea as the stand-in for the Mos Eisley cantina.
Are you sure they're not filming in Weymouth?
Because people from the provincial parts of the country where towns are meaningless entities and cities have sprawled out into the unincorporated countryside are always confusing our municipalities with neighborhoods.
Nope all the asshole
Nope all the asshole millionaires on the beacon side

Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time. A long time.
Tuscan Kitchen
I'm assuming they're filming at the Tuscan Kitchen in the Seaport
So that means the next episode will include...
Orange cones, trash cans and old wooden chair space savers plus cargo shorts featured prominently?
Um...

...outbound Orange Line train
...outbound Orange Line train stalled at Toshi Station. Looks like a failed power converter...

Well, that gives it away
The movie being filmed is Obi-Wan: The College Years (cue a sax-laden instrumental and cut to an opening shot of a young berobed Obi-Wan running down the steps of the Widener Library, across Harvard Yard, out Johnston Gate, and across Cambridge Common to make his Jedi Philosophy 102 class at the Divinity School with seconds to spare. A hundred-something year old Professor Yoda on the dais rolls his eyes and says "almost late to class, you were", as he begins his lecture).
will he be...
on his electric Harley Davidson? (Long way up reference in case you didnt get it..)
