The run-time for next Tuesday's highly-anticipated season finale of Ahsoka has been revealed, and while it's far from the shortest episode of the season, some fans will likely be disappointed that Lucasfilm didn't allow for a little more time to wrap things up.
The still untitled finale will reportedly clock-in at 46 minutes, 25 seconds. This is slightly longer than last week's instalment, but only with credits. Without, it should run around 42 minutes, 43 seconds.
We still don't know for sure how this first season (the show is rumored to have been renewed for a second) is going to close out, but we do have some possible details to share - and, if accurate, these should be considered pretty major spoilers.
Based on what we've been told, the season won't be concluding on a happy note after last week's joyful reunion. Ahsoka, Sabine, Ezra and Huyang will attempt to prevent Grand Admiral Thrawn from returning to their galaxy, but will ultimately be unsuccessful, and we may lose one of our heroes along the way.
Apparently, Ezra Bridger will sacrifice himself to save his friends.
Now, we don't know if this means he will actually perish or simply give up the chance to return home, but we can't see Dave Filoni killing off this character so soon after reintroducing him in live-action form, so we'd say the latter is a more likely scenario.
This should be viewed as rumor only for the time being, anyway, but our source has shared some accurate info in the past. At any rate, we don't have long to wait to find out, as the season finale of Ahsoka hits Disney+ this coming Tuesday.
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.
