Gosh, the season has been a final of Ahsoka – A year and seven months. But two teases came out of Ahsoka Panel tonight at Star Wars Celebration in Tokyo in season 2, which is in production next week. First of all, Hayden Christensen returns as ankin Skywalker – who makes sense in the world. Anakin is the Jedi master of Ahsoka, and the duo has a very complex relationship. But in more news, Game of Thrones“Actor Rory McCann intervenes to play Jedi Baylan Skol evil after the death of Ray Stevenson.
In addition, Admiral Ackbar returns – and it is not a trap. “He clashes with Thrawn,” promised Ahsoka Creator Dave Filoni.
“It took all my efforts to resist the line writing -” It’s a trap! ” Because I’m like, I can’t do that, it would be so lame.
Stevenson died in May 2023 before the first season Ahsoka made its debut. He played a keyworm antagonist who locks the horns with Ahsoka from Rosario Dawson. Dawson worked with McCann 20 years ago in Oliver Stone Alexander. She concluded with Filoni that when it came to filling Stevenson shoes, this was summed up with an actor and their eyes. McCann had this intensity.
Filoni became emotional by remembering Stevenson.
“Season 2 was predictable a great challenge because of Ray’s loss,” said Filoni.
“I knew that Ray working on the voice acting with him,” he said, “it was a challenge for me to consider continuing for a while. But I have a wonderful support group in Jon (Favreau) and Rosario (Dawson) ”.
Favreau, Dawson and Christensen were also on stage today in Tokyo with Filoni.
“I found a path – I had Ray in my head. I am grateful for all my conversations with him about Baylan. So I understood what to do, it took a while to get there. I am very confident now that Ray would be satisfied with the management we have chosen,” added Filoni who made the decision in concert with the late actress family.
“The character is supposed to be the parallel with Ahsoka in all directions. If there is a light, there is a dark, and Baylan represents a different journey for a Jedi while you (Rosario) represent the one who has moved away from the order (Jedi), he has just as much. It is a parallel that must continue,” said Filoni.
McCann’s credits are numerous, of which Gladiator II, Hot Fuzz, Jumanji: the following level as well as 39 episodes of HBO Game of Thrones Like Sandor ‘The Hound’ Clegane.
The last time we stopped in October 2023 with the Ahsoka The final of season 1, the big Admiral Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen) made the hyperspace jump via a space loop while Hsoka (Rosario Dawson), Sabine (Natasha Liu) and Ezra (Eman Esfandi) were brown in the Tumbleweeds Green Tura de PeriDra in a Galaxy Far, far. The MO of Thrawn must enjoy the Empire Aka “The Thrawn Campaign”, which was a series of military and political maneuvers of the blue man to restore the Empire and implose the New Republic.
Filoinni has been a fan of Thrawn since the author Timothy Zahn presented it in the post Return of the Jedi novel Heir to the Empire. “He is the emblematic villain. Thrawn does not have the strength, but holds up on everyone.”
Dawson said she hadn’t read all the scripts of season 2, and it’s because Filoni “continues to rewrite them”.
