As I mentioned earlier, Deborah Chow is the show runner and her episodes of The Mandalorian were phenomenal, as was her work on Mr. Robot.

Everyone in town knows Christensen’s limitations so I highly doubt they’re going to feature him extensively, unless he’s made massive strides as an actor in the past 15 years. And while I wouldn’t rule that out as happening, I don’t expect it, either.

Bottom line is that if it didn’t work in the table reads, there’s no way they would have moved forward with him.

One more thing: He and Ewan were pretty freaking phenomenal during their epic lightsaber battle in Mustafar so hopefully, part of the reason he’s part of the series is so that we can see another epic lightsaber battle between Obi Wan and Vader.
