The Star Wars universe has gotten another virtuoso bassist. Following Thundercat's appearance in Boba Fett, Red Hot Chili Peppers string slapper Flea plays a character in the newly premiered Obi-Wan Kenobi.

This confirms prior rumours that Flea would be appearing in the series. He plays Vect Nokru, a bounty hunter who leads a gang attempting to perform a kidnapping, coming into direct conflict with Obi-Wan.

The show takes place 10 years after the events of Revenge of the Sith, and features Ewan McGregor reprising his role as the title character, as well as Hayden Christensen returning as Darth Vader.

Obi-Wan Kenobi premiered today on Disney+.
