April 7th, 2023 by The Nerd Comments

Yes! The first panel from Star Wars Celebration Europe 2023 has given us the first trailer for Ahsoka and it’s everything we needed it to be!

The show gives us a first look at Chopper, Hera, Sabine, Thrawn is a real treat for fans of Rebels and, on top of that, it looks amazing!

WATCH: D23 trailer drops for Tales of the Jedi and looks stunning, plus news and FIRST LOOKS at Ahsoka and Skeleton

Jon Favreau has previously said that Dave Filoni wanted to bring Ahsoka into live-action ever since  Clone Wars and The Mandalorian was a test to see if audiences were ready for live-action Ahsoka. We certainly were, guys.: “The character has found new legs with the work we’ve been doing, and a show called The Mandalorian really set that up beautifully,” said Filoni.

Check out the new trailer and first looks below.

The series hits Disney+ in August and we’re pacing the floor already…

Trailer:

First look at Hera, Sabine and… Thrawn!

Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Sydulla:

Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Sabine Wren:

Grand Admiral Thrawn… the Heir to the Empire:

On Day two of the event, there was an Ahsoka panel that gave us some new details:

Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni and Rosario Dawson take the stage:

Our live-action Hera, Sabine and Ahsoka on stage together… this is a massive day for Rebels fans!

And yes, that is Doctor Who star David Tennant returning as Huyang!

Yes! This Lars Mikkelsen, brother of Mads, playing the live-action Thrawn, returning after voicing him Rebels! This is wonderful news!

Other news: Kevin Kiner, who scored The Clone Wars and The Bad Batch, is scoring Ahsoka, which makes a lot of sense as he knows Ahsoka and her themes more than anyone.

The series will have eight episodes oh, and Dave Filoni confirmed that the orange lightsabers are something news to Star Wars and not just a badly cloured effect… they will be something we have never seen before.
