Get ready for an exciting reunion in the upcoming Disney+ series “Star Wars: Ahsoka.” With its August premiere just around the corner, a thrilling new trailer has been released, sure to delight fans of the animated series “Star Wars: Rebels.” Packed with action, the trailer showcases live-action appearances from beloved characters such as Hera Syndula, Sabine Wren, Chopper, Ezra Bridger, and the formidable Grand Admiral Thrawn, who served as the series’ antagonist.

Set in the same timeline as “The Mandalorian,” “Star Wars: Ahsoka” follows the story of Ahsoka Tano, the former apprentice of Anakin Skywalker, who has a strong aversion to sand. Portrayed by Rosario Dawson, Tano never made an appearance in the prequel films but became a fan-favorite in the “Star Wars: Clone Wars” animated series. She then continued her journey in “Star Wars: Rebels” before making a significant appearance in the second season of “The Mandalorian.”

Fans have long speculated that “Ahsoka” would address the cliffhanger ending from “Rebels,” and their wishes are granted. The trailer is packed with references to the animated series, even featuring an animated still from the 2018 finale. Of great excitement to long-time franchise enthusiasts, the trailer also reveals the first live-action portrayal of Grand Admiral Thrawn, expertly played by Lars Mikkelsen.

Thrawn originally appeared as the primary antagonist in Timothy Zahn’s “Heir to the Empire” book trilogy, which continued the adventures of Luke Skywalker and his companions after the events of “Return of the Jedi.” Although these books are not considered canon, it seems that “Ahsoka” will incorporate certain elements from them, much like recent seasons of “The Mandalorian.” Fans speculate that the most intriguing aspects of Zahn’s novels will form the foundation of the upcoming “Filoni-verse” movie, a crossover event featuring the newer TV characters.

Mark your calendars for August 23rd, as “Ahsoka” premieres with two episodes simultaneously before transitioning to weekly releases. Alongside Rosario Dawson and Lars Mikkelsen, the series features Natasha Liu Borzizzo, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Eman Esfandi, and the recently-deceased character actor Ray Stevenson.
