How will Anakin appear? The “World Between Worlds” is a major plot element from SW:Rebels, and ties-in to Ahsoka’s story arc. The potential for Fan Service here is enormous. I’d love to see Mortis revisited, with the Father,Son, and Daughter. Although Rosario Dawson absolutely earned her dual lightsabers on ‘Mando, I’d sure love it if Ashley Eckstine could play Ahsoka “live”.’ The young lady from Spider-Man Homecoming looks like a natural for flashbacks.
If they truly want to start a “new” canon for SW, have Ahsoka rip Anakin through the “Worlds” portal before he saves Palpatine from Mace Windu. Or give us Anakin, Ahsoka, Obi-Wan, Yoda, and Luke together in an episode.
I like your idea for how to create new canon! Disney, listen to this idea! Multiverses are the perfect way to tell be stories while retaining story-wide canon. That way you can keep the original 1-9 episodes while still creating a new 3.5-9. Just this time don’t let Kathleen Kennedy anywhere near it and let the fans have the stories they really want!
PS: I know Disney just wants to sell toys, so they’ll always base the stories on what kids want, but I will buy all those friggin toys if you make the stories the real fans want!
Im sure Disney is more concerned with what the bulk of consumers of their media want than the desires of a fringe element of obsessive geek-fans… I’m sure Disney has plenty of marketing data on who their target demographics are though so they’ll likely get it right, moneywise
Lol Disney is reinforcing the sequels. The WBW was a one time gate and in that arc Ahsoka never died because she survived the battle even in the original episode.
I would say. Hayden’s part of Anakin in this show would be in Force Ghost form. It might show him helping Ahsoka make more piece with her past and showing how she passed away. I say that because we hear her voice, along with the other past jedi, speaking to Rey in the climax of The Rise of Skywalker.
This isn’t new. People have been disappointed by this casting for the last two years. Rosario Dawson had 20+ charges against her and her mother on the basis of transphobic informed verbal and physical attacks. All but two charges were dropped, those being the physical altercations remaining, but the victim is appealing.
I must ask who are these “fans” again? Are they real fans or just Twitter hopping nut jobs who are still upset that Dawson killed it as Ahsoka Tano in the Mandalorian? A young Ahsoka is not a bad idea in a flashback but only if she’s voiced by Ashley Tisdale
Writers of these articles these days just pick some random idiots on Twitter to backup their stupid ideas. Ever article written these days is like this, it’s such an obvious formula, yet everyone uses it.
these ppl are idiots. if they won a lottery for a million dollars, they’d complain it wasn’t for 2 million. be happy we have an ahsoka series, period! ffs. you aren’t casting directors. don’t like it, don’t watch, otherwise stfu. i dont care what some rando on twitter thinks about the situation. his opinion is irrelevant.
I sincerely doubt most fans want the role recast. As usual, its a small number of disgruntled zealots who think they can get their way if they throw a temper tantrum long enough. They are not fans, but simply idiots.
I couldn’t care who was cast as Ahsoka as long as they can get the head tails longer than shown in ‘The Mandalorian’. I mean look at the clone wars Ashoka’s head and then compare it to the older Ahsoka and you can clearly see that they are smaller than the clone wars version. Ashoka’s species head tails are supposed to be higher, just look at Shaak Ti who is the same species as Ahsoka
I don’t mind the young actress for the flashbacks, but I’ve already internalized Dawson as fully grown Ahsoka, and I don’t want them to mess with that.
Hayden will appear as a Force Ghost, that is pretty obvious. “Fans want…” What fans? A couple of people? Please! Almost every fan is perfectly happy with her on the role.
I wanted Zazie Beetz from the start once Rosario Dawson was cast. No offense to her, but her face dimensions, body type&voice…just don’t sync well with Ashley Eckstein’s. I know Disney wanted a Black actress to bring in revenue from that core dynamic, especially after they did John Boyega&his character Finn soooo unbelievably dirty. Dawson was a poor choice I’m afraid, as just think Zazie Beetz seems to be a better fit ALL around for the character s’all. Just my 2 cents

I know Disney wanted a Black actress to bring in revenue from that core dynamic, especially after they did John Boyega&his character Finn soooo unbelievably dirty. So the choice was a bit of damage control&an attempt to regain any fans who think poorly of Disney for that very reason. As Dawson was a poor choice I’m afraid, as I myself just think Zazie Beetz seems to be a better fit ALL around for the character s’all. Just my 2 cents
So, a couple of tweets and all of a sudden the whole Star Wars community wants something? Hardly. Rosario killed it as Ahsoka. This “article” is ridiculous.
Rosario Dawson is perfect for live action Asoka. No one wants to change. What the heck is this opinionated hack going on about? Go back to your moisture farm, ya whiny farmboy.
No reason to “recast” at all. they have the tech to make her younger, they just did this to Luke.Also,unless there are several flashbacks that require a younger version of both,maybe but lets not go over board just yet.
Um what ?? Who do they listen too ?? Bc utd definitely not me . I aboustly loved her in mandlorien thought she was perfect for the role . And I’m very happy to see her again !

Ashoka was not a disgraced. She was proven innocent but chose to leave the order because of how they treated her.

Yep. The two remaining are against her mom.
Glenn C Reimer
Interesting article, dreadful use of NEW in the title. Perhaps ADDITIONAL would have better served your intent?
Aryn Hanley
That doesn’t mean Ahsoka passed away … Rey just heard the voices of the Jedi ( that the movies have shown us so far ) that came before her.
RC
Doesn’t mean she’s alive either
