VIDEO: Ewan McGregor Hears STAR WARS News on JIMMY KIMMEL

Actor Ewan McGregor stopped by ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live last night and was surprised to hear about the recently reported slate of 'Star Wars' spin-off films in the works, featuring such beloved characters as Han Solo and Yoda.

When Kimmel asked the actor for his thoughts on the news of the stand-alone films McGregor replied, "Is there new news today? What was the news today?" Responded the host, "There was a disturbance in the force today. Apparently you're not a part of it!" Check out the appearance below!

McGregor will soon be seen in the big-screen fantasy adventure Jack the Giant Slayer. The actor is best known for his roles as heroin addict Mark Renton in the drama Trainspotting (1996), Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi in the Star Wars prequel trilogy (1999-2005), poet Christian in the musical film Moulin Rouge! (2001), and storyteller Edward Bloom in Tim Burton's Big Fish (2003).
