AHSOKA Season 2 Rumored To Have Been Greenlit By Lucasfilm As Production Eyes Move To The UK

While it still hasn't been officially announced by Lucasfilm, it sounds like Ahsoka season 2 is moving forward, albeit with production moving from Los Angeles to the United Kingdom. Read on for details...

Ahsoka was a largely enjoyable experience for Star Wars fans, though the series appeared to be enjoyed most by those who had previously tuned into Rebels.

Regardless, after eight episodes, Grand Admiral Thrawn and Ezra Bridger are back in the main Galaxy and Ahsoka Tano finally put her past behind her after being reunited with Anakin Skywalker in the World Between Worlds. As for Sabine Wren, she's a Jedi now (much to the chagrin of some). 

However, despite these major developments, Ahsoka concluded on an open-ended note. Sabine and Ahsoka are trapped on Peridea, as are Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati, and we still don't know what exactly Thrawn and The Great Mothers are up to. 

Needless to say, a second season is essential. 

Luckily, some online "scoopers" are claiming (via SFFGazette.com) that Ahsoka season 2 has been greenlit at Lucasfilm. While nothing has been confirmed at this stage, we're guessing the end of the WGA strike means Dave Filoni has been able to resume work on the series before his planned Star Wars movie follows. 

Of note is the fact Ahsoka will reportedly move to the UK's Pinewood Studios, the home of the Star Wars sequel trilogy. It was originally shot in Los Angeles (where The Mandalorian is based) and we'd say this is a strong indication that a) the show's scale is increasing and, b) there will be some overlap with Filoni's big screen plans. 

Keep checking back here for updates as we have them.

Set after the fall of the Empire, Ahsoka follows the former Jedi Knight Ahsoka Tano as she investigates an emerging threat to a vulnerable galaxy. 

In addition to Rosario Dawson in the title role, the series stars Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Sabine Wren, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Syndulla, the late Ray Stevenson as Baylan Skoll, Ivanna Sakhno as Shin Hati, Diana Lee Inosanto as Morgan Elsbeth, David Tennant as Huyang, Lars Mikkelsen as Grand Admiral Thrawn, and Eman Esfandi appearing as Ezra Bridger. 

Ahsoka was written by Dave Filoni, who executive produces alongside Jon Favreau, Kathleen Kennedy, Colin Wilson, and Carrie Beck. Directors include Filoni, Steph Green, Peter Ramsey, Jennifer Getzinger, Geeta Vasant Patel, and Rick Famuyiwa. 

All episodes of Ahsoka are now streaming on Disney+.

Definitely one or the better Star Wars shows. I still had some minor complaints but hopefully they sort things out

@Evansly - That's where I stand also.....it would have been better as a movie because the "filler episodes" bring the pace of the show down.It's a solid 7 would have been better without the filler.....some of the saber fights looked very cheap also.

Sabine was annoying as heck in the show...Shin was legit...Anakin was legit...Baylan was legit...Hera was meh....Ashoka was meh...Huyang was legit...Eza was meh...Nightmothers were legit...Morgan was solid...Jacen could be interesting...Thrawn had his moments.

Was there ever any doubt about it? The show ended on such an open note, there's a lot to follow up on before the movie rolls around. Another season is pretty much necessary

Although I guess it wouldn't be the first time Filoni & Favreau just put a major story thread for one character in another show instead of their own show.

I'm quite excited for another season of this. There are so many things to look forward to in it.

I really want to see how the story can progress when it's not tied into the usual star wars galaxy. Also seeing how Ezra deals with Thrawn when he's the only one who made it back through will be interesting. And on a more somber note I'm truly interested to see who they choose as the replacement for the late Ray Stevenson. He had such a powerful presence in the first season, so they really need to find someone who can match the same energy Ray brought to the role. While of course respecting what he did and not reinventing the performance to suit a new actor. I saw some fans saying Liev Shrieber would be an excellent choice, and I couldn't agree more.

@RedFury - It's a fine line to walk with Ray as we've seen in this and other franchises. I've aeen the Liev stuff too, but wouldn't be surprised if he died off camera...a waste given how Abeloth's character works and is indeed coming.

Obviously, they left off with more story to tell. That and it was a good series to begin with.

If the strike doesn't end this week, look for s lot of shows to be produced in Europe instead of the US.

"they are going even bigger with it"

How about having faster paced story, more dialogues and better character development instead?

It was [frick]ing terrible, loved Baylan, Shin and the duels and ships but the story is as lame and dumbed down as an episode of Rebels. If Filonis movie is gonna be just poor writing Hidden behind special effects and over the top fanservice then abandon all hope

Good! Really enjoyed season one and can’t wait to see where they go next. One of the best Star Wars shows they’ve done imo

Sad this gets greenlit before Andor season 3, where the stormtroopers actually hit stuff. The older I get the more I hate invincible heroes and expendable army trope is

@Matchesz - It's been reported many many times that Andor season 2 ends right where Rogue One starts... then he dies at the end.

I like Rosario but I think she was a bad cast. She had no energy and that was part of it. She didn't really feel like Ashoka to me. The other problems with the show in general is they just had things set up so the plot could happen. Its like Filoni knew he had to get Thrawn back to main galaxy and then half assed everything else. The Sabine stuff was weird. She seemingly had no ability at the start of the series even though she had been trained but then all of a sudden, shes a Jedi. Very conconsistently written show.

I really hope this turns out to be true! Season 1 finale opened up a lot of interesting avenues to explore and I enjoyed all of the characters.
