Disney’s Ahsoka series stars Rosario Dawson as Ahsoka Tano, Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as a mystery character, Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Sabine Wren, Ray Stevenson, and Ivanna Sakhno. Details about the series are scarce, though that doesn’t make this any less exciting. Fans have been clamoring for an Ahsoka series ever since the character made her live-action debut in 2020 in The Mandalorian episode “The Child.”
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse director Peter Ramsey is directing at least one episode of the series. Ahsoka won’t be Peter Ramsey’s only live-action project, as he’s also serving as the director of Blood Count, a film-noir vampire thriller set in 1950s L.A. that’s said to be loosely inspired by the life of Ramsey’s father, a jazz musician. He’s also set to helm Love in Vain, a biopic centering on Blues icon Robert Johnson. The next Star Wars T.V. series will be Obi-Wan Kenobi, which will debut on Disney+ on May 27, 2022.
