Jon Stewart Makes Surprise Appearance as Obi-Wan Kenobi on ‘Daily Show’

Jon Stewart is the guy everyone wants to hear from these days … what he thinks of the Donald Trump indictment, how it will affect the country and the 2024 presidential election, yada yada yada — or in this case … Yoda Yoda Yoda.

Stewart made a surprise appearance on his old stomping grounds, “The Daily Show” … coming hours after Trump’s arrest, you’d think he and guest host Roy Wood Jr. were going to dig into the case — but Jon’s wardrobe stole the show.

He came out dressed as Obi-Wan Kenobi, the wise Jedi master of all things ‘Daily Show’ … sent to give Roy some guidance. Well, at least, that was the setup for the bit.

One hilarious moment came as Jon reminded Roy he once hosted the show … to which Roy replied, “The Daily Show” had a white host? Why are you dressed like Obi-Wan Kenobi?”

Now, you knew Trump had to eventually come up, and he did, but it wasn’t about his arrest. You just gotta see it, but it involved Jon — in his Obi-Wan robe — and Trump playing the role of Vader.

They went back and forth about who was playing which “Star Wars” character … and THEN Stewart finally attempted to make a point about the Trump indictment.

It didn’t go smoothly, but it was funny as hell.

Jon hosted the ‘Daily Show’ from 1999 to 2015. While he’s previously returned — during Trevor Noah‘s tenure — this is the first time he went back as a Jedi.
