The Mandalorian and Grogu might be right around the corner, but there’s another Star Wars release still to come this year: Ahsoka season 2.
The Disney Plus show will pick up after the cliffhanger ending of season 1, which saw Ahsoka Tano and Sabine Wren stranded on Peridea, while Grand Admiral Thrawn and Ezra Bridger escaped back to the main galaxy.
“Working on it, working on it, it’s coming,” creator Dave Filoni told Screen Rant. “It’s come a long way, obviously. I’m editing it, all the episodes at once, right now, and deep in visual effects with the team but really proud of everyone, the work they’ve put in. Lots of things to resolve and figure out, but that’s normal. And I’m excited for people to see it, you know we didn’t really get to go out and premiere in a way last time so I think the team’s really excited to be out with the fans with this one and see how it goes.”
Filoni added he “might know” when it will release but wouldn’t clarify when, then responded to a social media rumor that this would be the last season: “Really? Never know. Everything works as planned and I know where the story goes and where it should tie up, and so I’m not really worried about that. But, fan speculation is always fun. It’s always fun to hear what people think. But we’ve got a lot going on right now in the present, see, like a Jedi, you must keep your mind in the here and now. We got Maul and we got Mando happening, so it’s very exciting.”
Maul – Shadow Lord recently wrapped up on Disney Plus with a cameo and showdown Star Wars fans have been waiting 27 years for, and Maul – Shadow Lord season 2 has already been confirmed.
The Mandalorian and Grogu, meanwhile, will pick up with Din Djarin and his tiny green charge on another adventure, this time involving Rotta the Hutt.
The film arrives this May 22. In the meantime, check out our guide to all the upcoming Star Wars movies and shows for everything else the galaxy far, far away has in store.
