We all know for a fact that Star Wars' upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series will see the "rematch of the century" between former mentor-protege Obi-Wan and Anakin Skywalker. But apart from Darth Vader serving as the show's big bad, the Disney+ project will also mark the live-action debut of the Inquisitors aka Vader's trusty minions. Now, Entertainment Weekly is giving us our first look at one of the Inquisitors featured on the show who is actually a debuting character.
Moses Ingram plays a new Inquisitor named Reva who is said to be a "ruthlessly ambitious" baddie. Speaking with the magazine, Ingram explains that her character shares "a common dark-side goal" with the Grand Inquisitor (whose actress has yet to be disclosed) and Darth Vader himself. She says: "They're on the same team."
Interestingly, the exclusive images EW release don't see Reva wearing her Inquisitor helmet and it'll be interesting to see if that's the actual look Lucasfilm is going for. She also doesn't look as sinister as the Inquisitors from the animated universe but judging by a sequence where she's seen confronting Owen (Luke Skywalker's adoptive father), it looks like Reva will be a fearsome foe.

I don't know about you but Obi-Wan Kenobi is already shaping up to be a Star Wars streaming event every fan cannot miss. While it's still a little early to tell whether or not it lives up to the hype and actually overtakes The Mandalorian in terms of popularity, it's safe to assume that Obi-Wan Kenobi will generate a strong following.
Obi-Wan Kenobi begins streaming on May 25th, exclusively on Disney+.
