AHSOKA Behind The Scenes Photo Reveals Best Look Yet At Freddie Prinze Jr.'s Live-Action Kanan Jarrus

A closer look at that photo of Freddie Prinze Jr. as Kanan Jarrus in Ahsoka has been revealed, and the actor looks nothing short of perfect in the role he originated in the animated Star Wars Rebels...

Ahsoka was a series full of fun surprises for fans, no great shock with Dave Filoni calling the shots. However, the Disney+ series failed to deliver the Star Wars Rebels reunion we'd all been expecting.

The Ghost crew - Kanan Jarrus, Hera Syndulla, Garazeb Orrelios, Sabine Wren, Ezra Bridger, and Chopper - never shared the screen at the same time, and while we'd imagine a present-day meeting is probably being saved for a future project, fans had hoped for a flashback, if nothing else. 

Of course, the chances of seeing Kanan again were always slim as the Jedi sacrificed himself during Rebels' final season. Filoni managed to sneak an Easter Egg in via a photograph, though, and a much closer look at that has finally been revealed.

It's impossible to say whether Freddie Prinze Jr. suited up as the hero for this or whether visual effects were used; either way, we'd imagine this will leave many a Star Wars Rebels fan crying out for a live-action version of the popular animated series!

Prinze Jr. has said he has no interest in playing Kanan again, so we're not banking on a proper return either in Ahsoka season 2 or Dave Filoni's Heir to the Empire. You never know what might happen, though...

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. 

In addition to Rosario Dawson in the title role, the series stars Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Sabine Wren, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Syndulla, the late Ray Stevenson as Baylan Skoll, Ivanna Sakhno as Shin Hati, Diana Lee Inosanto as Morgan Elsbeth, David Tennant as Huyang, Lars Mikkelsen as Grand Admiral Thrawn, and Eman Esfandi appearing as Ezra Bridger. 

Ahsoka was written by Dave Filoni, who executive produces alongside Jon Favreau, Kathleen Kennedy, Colin Wilson, and Carrie Beck. Directors include Filoni, Steph Green, Peter Ramsey, Jennifer Getzinger, Geeta Vasant Patel, and Rick Famuyiwa. 

All episodes of Ahsoka are now streaming on Disney+. Season 2 doesn't have a confirmed premiere window but is currently being developed by Dave Filoni.
