Even the most well-known characters in a Star Wars saga with such a huge cast of famous characters don’t have a narrative exactly like Ahsoka Tano. Since Anakin Skywalker’s padawan was never even hinted to in the live-action films, it is difficult to believe that there was a time when fans felt the idea was absurd. In Star Wars: The Clone Wars, young Ahsoka transformed from a haughty student to a compassionate Jedi Knight, winning the hearts of the fandom slowly but surely.
Many people thought her adventure would end when she left the Jedi Order to start a new life, but she continued to choose to fight for justice in Star Wars Rebels, even coming face to face with her former master, now corrupted into the evil Darth Vader. Even though her fight with Vader was supposed to be the end of her adventure, she managed to escape de@th and made her triumphant live-action debut in The Mandalorian.
The fan favorite will now get her very own live-action series, continuing her journey now that she is a household celebrity. Here is everything we currently know about Snips’ next series adventure. Two and a half years after it was first announced, Ahsoka is almost here, and we finally got some long-awaited details about her first-ever solo series.

Ahsoka Storyline
Although storyline specifics are being kept to a minimum, much like every recent Star Wars project, we do have a pretty decent sense of where Ahsoka’s journey is headed. Ahsoka’s objective became very evident by the end of her episode of The Mandalorian. Ahsoka made it plain after their fight that she was here for a bigger game.
Rosario Dawson (Daredevil), who obtained her dream of playing Ahsoka after a viral fan movement, will portray the character once more. Although hopefully Ashley Eckstein, the original voice actor for Ahsoka’s animated appearances, at least makes a cameo appearance, her enthusiastic reception from the rest of the community following her Mandalorian appearance seems to indicate to Lucasfilm that she was the appropriate choice.
Given that Ahsoka takes place after Return of the Jedi and since Anakin has long since passed away at this time, the most likely scenario in which we will see him is in a flashback from the Clone Wars in which he and Ahsoka are fending off battle droids. Or perhaps the fight between Vader and Tano will briefly resume.
Additionally, Sabine Wren, a Mandalorian freedom fighter who previously had the legendary Darksaber, will be played by Natasha Liu Bordizzo, who also voiced Ahsoka in the animated series. Though it’s likely that how she lost the Saber to Moff Gideon will be discussed, the character’s appearance is entirely justified considering her close bond and relationship with Ahsoka.
Lars Mikkelsen, who previously provided the voice of Grand Admiral Thrawn in Star Wars Rebels, will play the famous role in the live-action adaptation. Additionally, the series will feature Hera’s dependable astromech robot Chopper.
Ahsoka Crew Members
Dave Filoni, who has worked on virtually every Star Wars television production, both animated and live-action, is leading the charge as writer and showrunner. Given that Ahsoka was one of the first Star Wars characters that Filoni directly created for The Clone Wars and that he also created Rebels, this seems very apt. The show will once again be produced by Filoni, Jon Favreau, and Kathleen Kennedy. As if Filoni needed more work, he will also be in charge of directing the first and fifth episodes.
