Ewan McGregor Closes Out FAN EXPO Boston

Rapid fire fan questions drew the convention to a close after two days of Star Wars panels….

Boston, Mass. — Cons are fun, but boy, are they frenetic. And if you are Star Wars beat writer and you have several amazing actors to follow, well, let’s just say that it’s more than a little nerve rendering. In a good way. If you catch my meaning?

So, as I try to break down what I’ve captured and finish enjoying the moment (as it’s not often you are in the same room with C-3PO, Fennec Shand, Moff Gideon, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Ahsoka Tano), I wanted to close out the weekend with some fun from the Ewan McGregor panel.

But first, witness Moff Gideon regaining the Dark Saber.

And then Giancarlo Esposito went method on the host:

#EwanMcGregor imitates Wedge, his uncle Dennis Lawson & his initial reaction to the Death Star in Star Wars (1977). “Look at the size of that thing!”@FANEXPOBoston.

Obi-Wan Closes out the Con

Then, check out this clip from YouTube, where McGregor closes out his panel by fielding “Rapid Fire” questions from fans:

Of course, all good things come to an end, and while McGregor waved goodbye to fans gathered at his panel…

…Ashley Eckstein looked to keep the con going for as long as possible.

One of the best moments I witnessed @FANEXPOBoston = #AshleyEckstein, one of the last big names in the building, signing for fans up until the final moments of the con. An amazing ambassador for #StarWars. “Impressive. Most impressive….”@HerUniverse @CelebWorx #FANEXPOBoston pic.twitter.com/uvhuXfzQIl
