A bearded Ezra Bridger, played by Actor Eman Esfandi, holds a blue lightsaber in 'Ahsoka' on Disney+
The Big Picture Ezra Bridger has been on quite the journey from his first appearance in Star Wars Rebels to his live-action debut in Ahsoka. At Calgary Expo 2024, actor Eman Esfandi sat down with Collider’s Maggie Lovitt and his co-star Diana Lee Inosanto for the "All About Ahsoka" panel. He shared one of the most underrated traits about his character. He was also frank about what was important to him to get right about bringing the young Jedi to life.
“Maybe the one thing that isn’t immediately thought of about him that me, getting to play him that I personally believe about him , is that is actually a really brilliant tactician . Because he’s not really THE tactician, right? He’s usually off on a whim, going, ‘I don’t know! I’m gonna do this!’ and it works out for him because he’s using the Force.”
What Did Esfandi Want To Get Right About Playing Ezra? Stepping into Ezra’s shoes wasn’t as difficult as Esfandi thought it would be. He shared how, prior to filming, he had an experience that made it easy to become the Jedi thanks to his own spiritual journey. If it was so easy to get into character, then what was the one thing Esfandi tackled to get Ezra right? “I was mostly focused on getting martial arts into my body,” he explained. “I have never had any experience in that. So that was the only thing I ad nauseam practiced. Ezra is a beast. He’s really nimble in Rebels, and I needed to catch up to him in that sense.”
