The third episode of Ahsoka is set to premiere on Disney+ later on tonight (or tomorrow morning, depending on your timezone) at 6PM PT, and Lucasfilm has shared an exciting first look.
In this clip, Ahsoka Tano and Sabine Wren engage in an aerial dogfight with some enemy ships (it looks like the mysterious Marrok is leading the attack), and Sabine manages to take out one of their pursuers.
Star Wars fans will likely recognize the callback to a scene from A New Hope, which saw Luke Skywalker shoot down a TIE-Fighter when the Millennium Falcon was making its escape following the rescue of Princess Leia.
Set after the fall of the Empire, Ahsoka follows the former Jedi knight Ahsoka Tano as she investigates an emerging threat to a vulnerable galaxy.
The series stars Rosario Dawson in the title role, with Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Sabine Wren, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Syndulla, Diana Lee Inosanto as Morgan Elsbeth, Ivanna Sakhno as Shin Hati, Ray Stevenson as Baylan Skoll, David Tennant as Huyang, Lars Mikkelsen as Grand Admiral Thrawn, with Eman Esfandi appearing as Ezra Bridger.
Kevin Kiner was announced as the series' composer.
Ahoska is written by executive producer Dave Filoni, alongside executive producers Favreau, Kennedy, Wilson, and Beck. Gilchrist is co-executive producer. The series’ directors include Filoni, Steph Green, Peter Ramsey, Jennifer Getzinger, Geeta Vasant Patel and Rick Famuyiwa.
