The Mandalorian Season 2: Every Rumoured And Confirmed Character So Far

12. Ahsoka Tano

Numerous reports have suggested that Rosario Dawson (Descent, Percy Jackson) will portray the live action debut of fan-favourite Ahsoka Tano, whose awaited non-cartoon appearance has all but been confirmed by now.

Formerly apprentice to Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano left the Jedi Order after being accused of spearheading an assassination plot in Season Five of The Clone Wars. Ahsoka returned in Star Wars Rebels, where it was revealed she was the elusive Fulcrum, a spy providing vital information to the early Rebellion. Canonically she was last seen in the finale of Rebels as she set of with Sabine Wren to locate a missing Ezra Bridger, before making a brief voice cameo at the end of The Rise Of Skywalker along with numerous other Force Ghosts.

While the inclusion of Tano's voice in Rey's vision at the end of that movie suggests, somewhat ominously, that the Grey Jedi met her demise some time between the end of Rebels and the start of the Sequel Trilogy, her cameo is just one of the ways Disney seems to be gearing up to her live-action appearance.

The long-anticipated Clone Wars Season Seven was in many ways Ahsoka's story, going as far as to retell Revenge Of The Sith from her perspective in the seminal final four-story arc. While it makes sense for such an iconic character to get an ending she deserves, the series' heavy focus on Tano has sent many fans speculating whether she is about to make a return in The Mandalorian, maybe giving audiences more of an idea of what she was doing during the events of the Original Trilogy...
