When it comes to "Star Wars," Ewan McGregor's family members have been making their presence known in a galaxy far, far away since the beginning. Before his daughter showed up on "Obi-Wan Kenobi," and he starred in the prequel trilogy, McGregor's uncle portrayed Wedge Antilles in the original "Star Wars" trilogy. Actor Denis Lawson played one of the Rebel Alliance's X-Wing pilots, who was a major factor in the fight against the empire and the destruction of the two Death Stars. But he isn't the only hot-shot pilot in the family.

McGregor's wife, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, is also a member of the "Star Wars" universe, playing the role of Hera Syndulla on "Ahsoka." Syndulla, who was first voiced by Vanessa Marshall in "Star Wars Rebels," is a leader and skilled Twi'lek pilot for Ghost Crew. In "Ahsoka," which takes place many years later, Sydulla, now a General in the Rebel Alliance and a mother, appears on seven episodes of the first season.

A person doesn't have to be force-sensitive to realize that Ewan McGregor and most of his familial connections in "Star Wars" have a rebellious attitude toward the Empire and the Dark Side. It will be interesting to see if Esther McGregor's Tetha Grip gives up the spice game and joins the rest of the family as one of the good guys.
