This in-depth biography identifies the origins of 28 year-old Ewan McGregors success, not only in his movie-star good looks, but also in his considerable acting talent. From performances in hard-hitting British films Shallow Grave and Trainspotting, to the coveted role of Jedi knight Obi Wan Kenobi in George Lucass first Star Wars film for over 16 years, Ewan has chosen his roles well. Illustrated throughout with colour photographs of Ewan both on and off the set.
