Before the two-episode launch of the program on August 22, a new Ahsoka clip has been released courtesy of Disney and Lucasfilm.
As Hera (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) and Chopper (Dave Filoni) approach a ship, Hera and her droid sidekick experience a bit of turbulence thanks to enemy fire. Hera worries that Chopper's plan to shoot the enemy ship out of the sky may cause it to crash onto the port city below. Instead, she tells Chopper to latch on to it with tractor beams that Chopper, can't get to work. In response, he accuses Hera of messing with his stuff.
Fans of Star Wars Rebels are definitely pleased to discover that Chopper's snarky personality carried over into the live-action series.
Set after the fall of the Empire, Ahsoka will follow the former Jedi Knight Ahsoka Tano as she investigates an emerging threat to a vulnerable galaxy.
The series stars Rosario Dawson as Ahsoka Tano, Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Sabine Wren, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Syndulla, Ray Stevenson as Baylan Skoll, Ivanna Sakhno as Shin Hati, Diana Lee Inosanto as Morgan Elsbeth, David Tennant voices the droid Huyang, and Lars Mikkelsen as Grand Admiral Thrawn.
Additionally, Eman Esfandi will portray Ezra Bridger.
The two-episode premiere of Ahsoka begins streaming tonight at 9PM est/6PM pst.
