Set following the collapse of the Empire, Ahsoka chronicles the story of former Jedi Knight Ahsoka Tano, as she investigates an emerging threat to a vulnerable galaxy. The character was first introduced as Anakin Skywalker's padawan in Clone Wars, going on to appear in shows such as Star Wars Rebels and The Book of Boba Fett, as well as a voice-over cameo appearance in Rise of Skywalker.
Joining Dawson in the cast of the series is Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Sabine Wren, Eman Esfandi as young Jedi Ezra Bridger, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Syndulla, Ray Stevenson as Sith Baylan, and Ivanna Sakhno in an undisclosed role. Reprising her role as Mon Mothma, Genevieve O'Reilly joins the cast, alongside Diana Lee Inosanto, David Tennant, and Lars Mickelson. Behind the camera is Filoni as writer and showrunner, alongside Jon Favreau and Kathleen Kennedy who serve as producers.
