But
Star Wars Rebels characters aren’t the only animated fan favorites making the jump to live action. Earlier this year we broke the news that Ahsoka’s former friend and fellow Jedi Padawan
Barriss Offee will be making her long awaited return in
Ahsoka. It shouldn’t come as a shock given the fact that Dave Filoni is writing and executive producing
Ahsoka and during a
2015 panel he revealed that he “had plans for Barriss.”
Ahsoka seems like the perfect opportunity to continue the stories of Barriss, Thrawn, Sabine, Ezras and of course Ahsoka.
Ahsoka will also be introducing new characters into the world of
Star Wars including
Ivanna Sakhno’s mercenary character “Astrid”.
