He stated, “There’s plenty of homoerotic Obi-Wan/Hayden [Christensen] fan artwork that will get despatched to me on occasion. I don’t know the way it finds me.”

I wish to add there may be nothing incorrect with creating homosexual fan artwork of characters you want. However I’m positive it should be bizarre for Ewan to see drawings of himself in numerous sexual conditions with somebody who’s his pal and costar.
Now, I didn’t know this was a factor, as I at all times felt like the 2 had a really sturdy brotherly relationship…however a fast Google search confirmed that sure, folks do ship Anakin and Obi-Wan. And apparently, Darth Maul will get plenty of fan artwork too???!!!
So yeah, apparently there are Star Wars followers on the market that wish to see them have a really totally different kind of lightsaber battle.
You’ll be able to learn the remainder of the interview over on GQ.
