While my fanship of Star Wars will always center around the adventures of Luke, Leia & Han in the original trilogy of movies, for my son and daughter their interest in the franchise revolves more around The Clone Wars and Rebels animated television shows. We would have a family tv night each week devoted to watching a newly released episode. So, they are GEEKED that the characters and plots from these cartoons are being continued in the new AHSOKA live action series coming to the Disney+ streaming service. Of course, since being a Star Wars fan since I was a kid myself, I'm excited for this new show to debut too!
From viewing the trailer for AHSOKA it looks like there is a lot to be excited about. I'm impressed about how well the characters from Star Wars: Rebels appear to transition from cartoons to real actors and actresses. It is nice to see the adventures of these characters carry on. AHSOKA kicks-off exclusively on Disney+ with its first two episodes being released on August 23, 2023.
Set after the fall of the Empire, AHSOKA follows the former Jedi Knight Ahsoka Tano as she investigates an emerging threat to a vulnerable galaxy. "Ahsoka" stars Rosario Dawson, Natasha Liu Bordizzo, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Ray Stevenson, Ivanna Sakhno, Diana Lee Inosanto, David Tennant, Lars Mikkelsen and Eman Esfandi. The episodes are directed by Dave Filoni, Steph Green, Peter Ramsey, Jennifer Getzinger, Geeta Vasant Patel and Rick Famuyiwa.
