Big news for Ahsoka fans – we finally have confirmation of season 2! It’s been announced that a second instalment is being developed by Dave Filoni, opening up a whole new world for the character.

Rosario Dawson leads the cast as the popular outcast Jedi Ahsoka Tano, who has previously popped up in The Clone Wars, Rebels, The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett.

In season 1, she took centre-stage for a story that saw her rekindle an old feud with the chilling Grand Admiral Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen), search for a missing Ezra Bridger (Eman Esfandi) and clash against the complacency of the New Republic.

Many fans have been clamouring for a second season, with the finale leaving several plot threads unresolved. Read on for what we know so far.

Will there be an Ahsoka season 2?

Yes! Ahsoka season 2 has been confirmed. LucasFilm has confirmed that the series is currently being developed by Dave Filoni.

That’s all the news we have so far but fingers crossed we’ll get some more updates soon!

When could a potential Ahsoka season 2 be released?

We’re not expecting to see Ahsoka season 2 until at least 2025. The series is currently in development, but that process could take a while – not to mention when production officially starts.

A visual effects-driven show like Ahsoka naturally needs plenty of time in post-production, too, meaning we’d likely be looking at a production cycle in the region of 18-24 months.

Plus, we have The Mandalorian movie to look forward to first, which is already in production.

Ahsoka season 2 cast: Who could return?

We’d be expecting much of the cast – including the live-action Rebels characters – could return, with fans excited to fill the gaps between their early adventures and the sequel trilogy era.

Of course, one person who could not return is Ray Stevenson as fallen Jedi Baylan Skoll. Sadly, the talented actor passed away unexpectedly in May 2023, aged only 58. The first episode of Ahsoka was dedicated to him.

Here is a list of the Ahsoka cast members we could see more of:

  • Rosario Dawson as Ahsoka Tano
  • Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Sabine Wren
  • Eman Esfandi as Ezra Bridger
  • Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Syndulla
  • Ivanna Sakhno as Shin Hati
  • Diana Lee Inosanto as Morgan Elsbeth
  • David Tennant as Huyang
  • Evan Whitten as Jacen Syndulla
  • Genevieve O’Reilly as Mon Mothma
  • Lars Mikkelsen as Grand Admiral Thrawn

Is there an Ahsoka season 2 trailer?

There’s no trailer for Ahsoka season 2 just yet, but we’ll update this page if any new footage is released.

In the meantime, fans should keep an eye out for any behind-the-scenes content on Disney Plus, with special features previously being produced for The Mandalorian, Obi-Wan Kenobi and The Book of Boba Fett.
