” The amusing thing about doing[ the prequels] in the first place, when I was much younger, was trying to imagine, how would he represent these situations as a younger guy ?” Ewan said.” It preceded me to watch a lot of his early succeed, which I hadn’t seen before. Magnificent movies, wonderful movies that he’d been in. I had such a great time sort of studying him in those movies .”

” This time, I’m much closer in senility to him ,” Ewan continued.” It is likely to be my challenge to try and meet him somewhere. I adore Alec Guinness. I never got to meet him, but I adore him, through his drive, and it’s a great honor to try and pretend to be him .”
