A new TV spot for Ahsoka just dropped, and it seemingly confirms recent theories that Sabine Wren will be Ahsoka Tano's Padawan in the Disney+ series.
While the Mandalorian previously proved herself more than capable of wielding the Darksaber, she now has Ezra Bridger's lightsaber and seems surprisingly adept with it. It's possible Ahsoka is just showing her how to use the weapon, but that's not the impression this and other sneak peeks have given.
After all, you need to be more than just talented with a blade to use a lightsaber in a proficient manner and we see Sabine taking on the villainous Shin Hati as Ahsoka battles that mysterious Sith Inquisitor in the distance. This likely confirms he's in cahoots with Shin and her Master, Ray Stevenson's Baylan Skoll.
Elsewhere in the TV spot, Hera Syndulla attempts to raise the alarm about the threat the Empire still poses to the Galaxy, even after their defeat in Return of the Jedi.
Check out this new look at Ahsoka in the players below.
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.
Ahsoka will launch exclusively on Disney+ on August 23 with a two-episode premiere.
