Star Wars Every Upcoming TV & Film: Everything We Know

5. Ahsoka

2020 was quite the year for Ahsoka Tano. First, the Clone Wars breakout star stole the show in that series' final season, acting as the heart and soul of the epic Siege of Mandalore arc. Next, she made her live action debut in the second season of The Mandalorian, proving to be just as cool in live action as she is in animation. Finally, Disney announced that she will be leading her own live action series, titled Ahsoka.

Not much is known about Ahsoka as of now, except that it will be a spinoff of The Mandalorian. As such, we know that the series will be set shortly after Return of the Jedi. Perhaps Ahsoka will meet up with Din Djarin or Grogu at Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy.

Additionally, Ahsoka's appearance in The Mandalorian teased that she was searching for Grand Admiral Thrawn. The cold and menacing Chiss acted as the antagonist for the second half of Star Wars Rebels, which ended with Thrawn, along with series protagonist Ezra Bridger, being dragged into hyperspace by purrgils. Given Thrawn's potential involvement, could Ahsoka act as a sequel series to Rebels, maybe even featuring an appearance from Ezra?

The series will be developed by Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau of The Mandalorian, and Rosario Dawson will reprise her role as Ahsoka.
