Meet Ewan McGregor Brother
Ewan McGregor does in fact have a brother named Colin McGregor, who was a pilot in the Royal Air Force (RAF). The assertion that Colin used the call sign “Obi-Two” in an official capacity while serving in the RAF has not been corroborated by any documentation.
In truth, it appears that this tale began as a punny joke about the actor and his brother before it was misunderstood for a true event.
