Production on the Disney Plus "Star Wars" TV series "Obi-Wan" has been placed on hold, according to Collider.

Reports indicate that scripts for the series didn't meet Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy's standards and were sent back to the writing staff for retooling. They go on to report that the crew, which had assembled at London's Pinewood Studios to begin pre-production, has been adjourned with hopes to restart production by the summer.
