Star Wars: Ahsoka is an American space fantasy television series produced for the streaming platform Disney+ by Dave Filoni. The show belongs to the Star Wars universe and connects to The Mandalorian (2019–2023), occurring during the same period after Return of the Jedi (1983). It features former Jedi Ahsoka Tano leading a group that protects the New Republic from Imperial holdouts.
Rosario Dawson portrays the main character, returning from her role in The Mandalorian. Supporting actors include Natasha Liu Bordizzo, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Ray Stevenson, Ivanna Sakhno, Diana Lee Inosanto, David Tennant, Eman Esfandi, Evan Whitten, Genevieve O'Reilly, Hayden Christensen, Ariana Greenblatt, Lars Mikkelsen, and Anthony Daniels. Ahsoka Tano originated from the animated Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008–2020), created by Filoni. Dawson was chosen to portray her in live-action during the second season of The Mandalorian, leading to a spin-off series announced by Lucasfilm in December 2020 with Filoni directing. The show continues themes from Star Wars Rebels (2014–2018). Alongside Filoni, Jon Favreau, Kathleen Kennedy, and Colin Wilson reprise executive producer roles from The Mandalorian, joined by Carrie Beck.
Ahsoka debuted on August 22, 2023, releasing the first two episodes of its initial season. The remaining six were made available through October 3. The season attracted strong audiences, earned mostly favorable reviews, and won a Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Award. Season two is set to begin on January 20, 2027.
