Ahsoka

About Ahsoka

Ahsoka Tano began as a cartoon apprentice in The Clone Wars and became the most durable new character Star Wars has produced in twenty years. Ahsoka, her live-action series on Disney+, casts Rosario Dawson in the role and picks up threads from Star Wars Rebels, following her pursuit of a threat gathering beyond the edges of the known galaxy. The second season brings Hayden Christensen back as Anakin Skywalker and gives Baylan Skoll to Rory McCann, who takes the part over after Ray Stevenson's death in 2023.

It returns on January 20, 2027, a date Lucasfilm announced at D23 after Dawson had earlier pointed only to an early 2027 window. The show sits at the junction of two decades of animated Star Wars and the live-action era, which cuts both ways. Viewers who watched The Clone Wars and Rebels get payoffs built over years; everyone else meets characters the series assumes they already know. Starting from the first season is close to required.
