Once a rebel, always a rebel! The highly anticipated Star Wars: Ahsoka series is hitting Disney+ very soon and the streamer has released a new trailer that will surely delight fans of the animated Star Wars: Rebel series.
Set during the same time as The Mandalorian season three, the new Ahsoka trailer reveals a reunion between lead character Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson) and her student Sabine Wren (Natasha Liu Borzizzo). With rumblings of General Admiral Thrawn’s resurfacing, Ahsoka and Sabine work together to try and find Ezra Bridger (Eman Esfadi) once again, all while being hunted by Inquisitors and a pair of Dark Force users. Given the way the two previously split, Ahsoka will also see the Master and Student work through their issues with one another and themselves.
Speaking of Thrawn, the iconic villain finally made his live-action debut in the trailer. That’s right, the trailer offered a short glimpse of original voice actor Lars Mikkelsen with blue skin and a pair of red beady eyes. Mikkelsen’s appearance as the villain was first announced in April this year and it seems like his live-action portrayal will either make it or break it for the fans. After all, Thrawn is one of the most iconic and beloved villains in the Star Wars franchise.
Thrawn and Sabine aren’t the only Rebels character debuting into live-action in Ahsoka. As seen in the trailer, the ex-Jedi also reunites with Hera Syndulla, played by Mary Elizabeth Winstead. Oh, not forgetting the droid Chopper a.k.a C1-10P who was also seen in earlier teaser trailers.
Rounding out the cast of Ahsoka are the late Ray Stevenson, Ivanna Sakhno, Diane Lee Inosanto, David Tennant and Hayden Christensen as the one and only, Darth Vader.
Star Wars: Ahsoka is written by Dave Filoni, who serves as executive producer alongside Jon Favreau, Kathleen Kennedy, Colin Wilson, and Carrie Beck. The series is set to release on Disney+ on 23 August.
Don’t judge a book by its cover, for behind all this makeup, is a geek just like you. To simply put it, superheroes, Star Wars, Harry Potter and all things gore and creepy makes this girly girl swoon.
