Reprising his role as rebel insurgent Saw Gerrera from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Forest Whitaker plays a minor role in Fallen Order assisting Cal on Kashyyyk. Canonically, this is the first time Saw is depicted in the Imperial era, with Gerrera having previously been introduced on the Clone Wars and later appearing on Rebels in the build-up to 0 ABY.

The seeds of Saw's Rogue One-era tactics are also foreshadowed in Fallen Order, with the rebel abandoning the Wookies after suffering setbacks in their insurgency against the Empire.
