According to the actor, a camel named Silas was his alien horse Eopi, a vehicle on the arid planet Tatooine. McGregor explained that it was a pleasure to be with the animal, unlike the mannequin while working on the prequels.

"I really, really liked him. I do not knowhow Silas treats me, and he's wonderful. When I delivered Luke to Tatooine at the end of the third episode, I was riding on damn blue gymnastic horse. I just had to sit on it and sway from side to side. I also called my friends: "Come, the last scene of the film will be an important moment." And there stands this blue gymnastic horse. I thought I was being bullied. During filming «Obi-Wan» The coach saw that I really liked the camel, and he said, "He's almost done with his career. He is 20 years old and we are looking for a home for him. I thought, “Oh nDon't tell me that. " I will come home with a camel and say, “Hey! We can leave the camel in the garden, can't we? ”

The plot of the series will tell about the Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi, who oversees the young Luke Skywalker and hides from the hunters of the Empire during the exile on Tatooine.
