Taco Shop's Epic Tribute to Jedi Champion Leaves Star Wars Fans in Awe

An intriguing Star Wars image paying homage to Ewan McGregor's Obi-Wan Kenobi recently caught the attention of fans online. With its immense popularity, Star Wars has become a globally recognized franchise, starting with the original trilogy's enormous success. A prequel trilogy followed in 1999 and, despite initial mixed reviews, has garnered a loyal following over time. This is largely thanks to McGregor's captivating portrayal of the wise and charismatic Jedi Master, Obi-Wan Kenobi. The character's immense popularity even led to his own show, with the Obi-Wan Kenobi premiere smashing Disney Plus' original series record.

At a local Taco shop, a fan of McGregor's Obi-Wan has created a charming shrine featuring humorous images of Danny Trejo, Charles Darwin, and Anthony Bourdain on candles. The centerpiece of the display is a large framed portrait of McGregor's character with his iconic hairstyle stylized as a religious image. The image was shared on Reddit by a user named Zeaus03 with the caption, "A shrine at my local Taco shop dedicated to our lord and savior Kenobi."

Interestingly, McGregor's resemblance to Jesus Christ has been noted by fans and has inspired jokes within the fandom. Some have even referred to Kenobi as Space Jesus due to his role and sacrifice in the franchise, as well as the supposed Christian undertones present in the films. This isn't the first time McGregor has been seen as a religious symbol, as his resemblance to Jesus has been noted before.

According to comments from Redditors, the altar at the store is a creative and successful way to attract customers to enjoy some Tacos and humor. It seems the admiration for both Kenobi and McGregor is everlasting, and fortunately, there is hope that the beloved star will return sooner than anticipated. As the Star Wars franchise continues to produce new content for streaming and various ongoing projects come to a close, McGregor is optimistic that Obi-Wan Kenobi will have a second season. Fans can catch up on the entire Star Wars saga on Disney Plus.
