Ahsoka Season 2 to Premiere on Disney+ in Early 2027

Rosario Dawson announced at Disney's Upfront presentation that the second season of the Star Wars series Ahsoka will premiere on Disney+ in early 2027, nearly four years after the first season's debut.

Dawson, who stars as the former Jedi Ahsoka Tano, shared the update during the event in New York City. She screened a behind-the-scenes reel and teased the new episodes, saying, "This season, the battles are bigger and the stakes are higher." A sneak peek featuring creator Dave Filoni and cast members highlighted the production's scale.

The first season aired its eight episodes weekly starting August 22, 2023, spinning out of The Mandalorian. It followed Ahsoka as she searched for her friend Ezra Bridger and investigated the return of Grand Admiral Thrawn from exile in a distant galaxy. The finale left Ahsoka and Sabine Wren stranded on the extragalactic planet Peridea after Thrawn escaped with Ezra aboard his ship. The series, written and executive produced by Filoni, drew from his work on the animated shows The Clone Wars and Rebels, where Ahsoka originated as Anakin Skywalker's Padawan before leaving the Jedi Order.

Season 2 will see Hayden Christensen reprise his role as Anakin...
