Yeah, That's Flea In 'Obi-Wan Kenobi'

The rumors were true! Red Hot Chili Pepper bassist Flea has a role in the new Obi-Wan Kenobi series.

The first two episodes dropped on Friday on Disney+. 23 years after he was first cast, Ewan McGregor reprised his iconic role as the titular character.

Eagle-eyed fans instantly recognized Flea, who plays a bounty hunter named Vect Nehru.

Pretty amazing seeing someone from your favorite band in a Star Wars related series. My two biggest obsessions for a majority of my life: RHCP and Star Wars. @flea333 @ChiliPeppers @obiwankenobi pic.twitter.com/70FhUI06pk

The role is far from Flea’s first. He made his acting debut in a 1984 film called Suburbia. He has appeared in classics like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, The Big Lebowski, Back to the Future Part II, and more.

The first two episodes of Obi-Wan Kenobi are available to stream on Disney+.
