The countdown has officially begun. Well, for us the countdown started when the series was announced, but let’s not worry about that, shall we? Ahsoka is just 15 days away. We repeat, 15 days away! And you can certainly sense the buzz amongst the army of Star Wars fans. Considering how Ahsoka was originally received, it’s truly amazing how far this character has come, but here we are… Ahsoka Tano has her very own live-action series and she’ll be bringing some of our favourite characters into the fold- Chopper, Thrawn, and Hera Syndulla, just to name a few.
To celebrate the upcoming double-bill premiere of Ahsoka on August 23rd, Disney+ has shared some brand new character posters showcasing the heroes and villains of the show- Thrawn is missing which is quite ironic if you think about, so we’ll have to wait for his. The character posters include Rosario Dawson’s Ahsoka, Natasha Liu Bordizzo’s Sabine Wren, Mary Elizabeth Winstead’s Hera Syndulla, Diana Lee Inosanto’s Morgan Elsbeth, Ivanna Sakhno’s Shin Hati, and Ray Stevenson’s Baylan Skoll.
Aren’t they awesome?
