It’s been quite a while since viewers were immersed in the Disney+ Star Wars series Ahsoka, going on three years, actually. New episodes won’t arrive until 2027, but the first trailer premiered Friday at D23 in Anaheim. Check out the clip and new poster below, along with a first-look photo above.
Season 2 continues the story of Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson) and her extraordinary journey beyond the known galaxy. As Ahsoka and her Jedi apprentice Sabine Wren (Natasha Liu Bordizzo) travel across a mysterious and perilous world to find their way home, their friends must face the powerful Grand Admiral Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen) and his sinister allies, who seek to plunge the New Republic into war.
The cast also includes Rory McCann as evil former Jedi Baylan Skoll (taking over for the late Ray Stevenson, who played the character in Season 1) and Hayden Christensen returns as Anakin Skywalker — a role he played is the Star Wars prequels and TV series Obi-Wan Kenobi — along with Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Eman Esfandi and Ivanna Sakhno.

Ahsoka won a 2024 Emmy for Outstanding Fantasy/Sci-Fi Costumes and had four other nominations in crafts categories.
The Season 1 finale, which aired way back in October 2023, saw Grand Admiral Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen) make the jump to hyperspace via a space loop, where Ezra (Eman Esfandi) stowed away, while Ahsoka (Rosario Dawson) and Sabine (Natasha Liu) were marooned in the green tundra tumbleweeds of Peridea in a galaxy far, far away. Thrawn’s m.o. is to reassemble the Empire aka “The Thrawn campaign,” which was a series of military and political maneuvers by the blue man to restore the Empire and implode the New Republic.
Dave Filoni created and writes the series, which returns for Season 2 early next year on Disney+.
