KENOBI - Star Wars | Film
Project Overview
About
Hello there and welcome to the Kenobi casting call! As some of you are already aware of this will most likely be a story of Obi-Wan/Ben Kenobi shot and recorded both in Unreal Engine and Battlefront II (2017), I do however have an idea for the basis of the story where we see the struggles Kenobi endures in the past to experience the ghosts that will also haunt him in the present which I hope to bring a unique twist but I need your help to accomplish this task!
Writer
A composer will be hired to develop a score akin to the story and its characters to convey the overall emotion of each scene, an artist will be hired to create the cover art for the film and such (This image at the top left is only a placeholder and temporary), a professional writer will be hired to refine the script but I do need a writer to help who is knowledgeable in Star Wars lore and background experience in writing being able to put together a story in a new fitting and creative way, who will work alongside me to deliver a compelling story for all fans of the Star Wars saga, this role will be paid!
Actors
I want to put emphasis on this part particularly due to my own personal mistakes that I don't want to repeat as with my last casting call "Venom", there was a fallout where due to personal complications I wasn't able to render payment... I don't want to repeat the same mistake, so roles for actors will be posted eventually but not until the script is finished as well as funds gathered for payment I don't want to make any broken promises, but once they are posted there will definitely be a main role as Kenobi so get your best voice ready for audition when auditioning you must be able to convey emotion such as sadness, happiness, anger, etc. and sarcasm... especially with Kenobi! Try your best.
REQUIREMENTS
- For communication purposes you must have a Discord and be able to join the server, please state your username and ID number in your audition.
- You must have a good mic with little to no background noises with the best quality possible to match production quality (NO HEADSETS OR PHONE, LAPTOP MICS) ranging from Blue Yeti Pro, Rode NT-1A, Shure SM7B and Audio Technica 2035.
- Please I can't emphasize this enough when cast, be committed and turn lines in on time if there are complications preventing you from doing so, there will be a 10 day grace period.
ADDITIONAL NOTES
You will be credited once the film is complete both in description of the video and end credits, for payment you it will be transferred through PAYPAL once your role is complete, if you can do other characters go for it, you may be cast for both and on final note... I genuinely want to thank you for displaying your interest in this project, you and I will shape this film to the best it can be!
"May the Force be with you... always." - Luke (thekillinjoke)

"I don't like sand, it's coarse, rough, irritating... and it gets everywhere!" Please feel free to audition for "The Chosen One", try to get as close as possible to Hayden Christensen.
Your role is critical to the success of this film, everything in a film must fit together like a puzzle piece and this is the main piece, we must work together adding new and unique ideas, please publish an example of your work.
Say something you think would fit
"Obi-Wan Kenobi, later known as Ben Kenobi during his exile, was a Force-sensitive human male Jedi Master who served the Galactic Republic. He was a mentor and close friend to both Anakin Skywalker and his son, Luke, training them in the ways of the Force."
In this story he will convey much emotion so when auditioning keep that in mind, you will have to do both old and young Kenobi in the movies preferably or you can do it in Clone Wars and Rebels.
Obi-Wan:
“Be mindful of your thoughts, Anakin, they betray you.”
"You have allowed this Dark Lord to twist your mind until now . . . until now you have become the very thing you swore to destroy."
"It was said that you would, destroy the Sith, not join them. Bring balance to the Force, not leave it in darkness!"
Ben Kenobi:
“If you define yourself by the power to take life, the desire to dominate, to possess… then you have nothing.”
"The force is what gives a Jedi his power. It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together."
“Luke, you’re going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view.” / “The truth is often what we make of it; you heard what you wanted to hear, believed what you wanted to believe.”
Improv, what do you think Obi-Wan would say?
"He was the best star pilot in the galaxy, and a cunning warrior. I understand you've become quite a good pilot yourself. And he was a good friend." - Obi-Wan Kenobi
This is where the fun begins! Anakin Skywalker also known as "The Chosen One" will appear frequently within the story of Kenobi and will convey much emotion as Kenobi will, his voice will be strictly based on Hayden Christensen from Episodes II & III.
Anakin Skywalker:
"I killed them. I killed them all. They're dead, every single one of them. And not just the men, but the women and the children, too. They're like animals, and I slaughtered them like animals. I hate them!"
"I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere. Not like here. Here everything is soft and smooth."
"Well I should be! Someday I will be. I will be the most powerful Jedi ever! I promise you. I will even learn to stop people from dying!"
Darth Vader:
"Love won't save you, Padmé. Only my new powers can do that."
"From my point of view the Jedi are evil!"
"Don't lecture me, Obi-Wan! I see through the lies of the Jedi. I do not fear the dark side as you do. I have brought peace, freedom, justice and security to my new empire!"
"I HATE YOU!"
What do you think Anakin/Darth Vader would say?
"Qui-Gon Jinn, a Force-sensitive human male, was a venerable if maverick Jedi Master who lived during the last years of the Republic Era. He was a wise and well-respected member of the Jedi Order, and was offered a seat on the Jedi Council, but chose to reject in order to follow his own path. "
Qui-Gon will be vital in the story, he needs to sound as close to Liam Neeson as possible.
" Don't center on your anxieties, Obi-Wan. Keep your concentration here and now, where it belongs. "
"Remember: Your focus determines your reality. "
Improv, what do you think Qui-Gon would say?
