Voiced by Ashley Eckstein, the character is introduced as the Jedi apprentice of Anakin Skywalker, the main character of the Star Wars prequel films. Ahsoka became a fan favorite over the course of The Clone Wars and Eckstein reprised her role for the follow-up animated series Star Wars Rebels. Rebels was co-created by Filoni and focuses on a group of heroes who resist the Galactic Empire: the Jedi Kanan Jarrus, his apprentice Ezra Bridger, pilot Hera Syndulla, Mandalorian warrior Sabine Wren, Zeb Orrelios, and Hera's droid Chopper. During Rebels, Ahsoka learns that Anakin has fallen to the dark side of the Force and become the Sith lord Darth Vader. In the final season, Kanan sacrifices his life and Ezra is taken to an unknown location with antagonist Grand Admiral Thrawn. The series ends with an epilogue in which Ahsoka joins Sabine to search for Ezra, leading to speculation about a new series focusing on them. Filoni said he had ideas for that story but nothing was in development. He described bringing the two characters together as "a unification of Clone Wars and Rebels", and said he would not want someone else to tell their story. The franchise expanded to live-action television with the Disney+ series The Mandalorian in 2019. Creator Jon Favreau worked with Filoni to develop the series, which is set....
