To celebrate the arrival of the new Star Wars original limited series on Disney+, Obi-Wan Kenobi, one UK landmark building got in on the fun with new lighting and projection effects.
What’s Happening:
- In celebration of the imminent release of the Star Wars original series coming straight to Disney+, Obi-Wan Kenobi, the Battersea Power Station in the UK took on a new look last night.
- Featuring projections and high powered lighting, the chimney stacks of the power station were transformed into the lightsabers of both Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader.
- Beneath the lighting, projections formed the handles of the lightsabers while the rest of the building was covered in images and iconography from the new series.
- Obi-Wan Kenobi begins 10 years after the dramatic events of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith”where Obi-Wan Kenobi faced his greatest defeat—the downfall and corruption of his best friend and Jedi apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, who turned to the dark side as evil Sith Lord Darth Vader.
