Alright, I love Obi-wan. He's up there in my top 3 favorite Star Wars characters. The guys is not only a wise, repspectable man of integrety, but he is also a very capable duelist and a powerful being. But there's a problem with how he's presented in the prequel movies: He's WAY younger then they present him.

 

Seriously, I think that guy is 32 during ROTS, and yet he's greying? I realize they did this to make him seem wiser, but I honestly think he'd be a lot cooler if they made him look like an actual 32 year-old. Is there anyone esle who feels the same?

People can age differently, theres a lot of different factors to it. Stress is probably the biggest one, can make you look older then you actually are..though what do you mean he looks younger in ROTS? He looks fine to me. Edited October 7, 2012 by Wolfninjajedi

My uncle started going gray at 18, genetic anomaly on my mother's side. Still looked 18, still looks 15 years younger than his age now, but full head of gray hair. It's more common than you think.

I don't remember seeing a single grey hair on Obi-Wan's head during RoTS.

That and that could be Tatooine's twin suns for ya.

This. He and Anakin have been fighting in war constantly and drawing upon the force more than they normally would if there wasn't a war. You have to expect that there are some side effects.
