If you want to know:

[Show spoiler]Apparently the world between worlds Ahsoka will confront her fears of Anakin and thinking how she failed him. She will see the alternate universe where she tries to save him and eventually it's her on mustafar fighting him but no matter the timeline he still turns. This sets her on a new path of healing that she can finally let him go like Obi learned how too.

Somehow.... EVERY dead character ever returned....

I might actually have to become a fan of hers then.

Another detail perhaps worth our attention; the two new antagonists wielding orange lightsabers, have been given the surnames Skoll (Baylon) and Hati (Shin). Those are almost surely inspired from Norse mythology; Skoll and Hati are two giants (often depicted in the shape of Wolves) eternally chasing the Sun and the Moon. According to mythology, should they catch their prey, Ragnarok happens.

No idea how or if this tells us something about these characters in the series and their agenda, but there it is.

‘The Expanse’ & ‘Hunger Games’ Actor Wes Chatham Joins ‘Ahsoka’ Live Action Series At Disney+

EXCLUSIVE: Fresh off the conclusion of Amazon’s long-running sci-fi series The Expanse, actor Wes Chatham is heading back to space as the latest addition to Disney+’s live-action Ahsoka series.

Chatham (The Expanse, Hunger Games, Tenet) will play the right-hand man to Lars Mikkelsen’s Admiral Thrawn in the series, multiple sources have told Deadline.

Ahsoka is Disney+’s spin-off to the hit series The Mandalorian. Rosario Dawson stars as the titular Ahsoka Tano. Written by Star Wars Rebels co-creator Dave Filoni and executive produced by Filoni and Jon Favreau, Ahsoka will continue the character’s story from The Mandalorian. The line-up of directors set to work on the series includes Filoni, Steph Green, Peter Ramsey, Jennifer Getzinger, Geeta Patel, and Rick Famuyiwa.

I really hope he's playing Eli Vanto. There's some dummy name floating around for this guy but who else is Thrawn's assistant besides Pellaeon? Eli is, and if they really were consulting with Timothy Zahn, they'd know about Eli.

This all tracks, I think. Dave Filoni loves wolves, and giant ones were featured in Rebels.

Looks promising, but WHY DOES THE TRAILER STATE AHSOKA'S A JEDI????? How in the living force can they be making such huge mistakes?

The mistake is yours. It doesn’t state she is a Jedi, the inclusion of word Jedi in text is a reference to her past. The teaser also includes the sentence “…perhaps it is time to start again” although one should not make any assumptions given there is no full context.

It’s also there for MARKETING!

Plus, hasn't Filoni stated before (in an interview or at a con) that as far as he's concerned she is a Jedi?

I was not familiar with her beyond name recognition until her appearance on The Mandalorian. I remember referring to her as a Jedi in a post and someone trying to correct me, only for another user to say that Filoni has called her a Jedi before.

[mysticwaterfall]

Filoni says he considers her to be a Jedi, but she's technically not one. It's like if someone goes to medical school but leaves before graduating. They might have a lot of the skills of a doctor but they aren't one.

[BluBonnet]

To the average person in AGFFA, she would probably look just like a Jedi once she gets that lightsaber out.

[Josep5349]

She left the Jedi Order not because she didn’t want to be a Jedi Knight but because of the circumstances. Last we saw her in BOBF she wasn’t affiliated to Luke’s new Jedi Order. That suggests she is now comfortable with who she is and her place in the galaxy. Nevertheless, as much as she doesn’t consider herself a Jedi anymore, we are all the sum of our experiences, so being a Jedi will always be part of who she is.

Positively yes. They need this show to not only be good but to also draw in some new viewers. Mandalorian S3 sucked so bad... they are in recovery mode.

You cant just state what you want though. Doesnt work like that. Jedis require passing the trials & to be made a Jedi by a training master. She is a cool character and I am excited for the show. But she never achieved official Jedi status.

This is Star Wars 101 here. C'mon people.

No - again, he cant just decide she's one. No go Dave. Kind of like Rey Palpatine calling herself a Skywalker. Sorry, honey. Nope.

If you read my post, that's exactly what I said.

If being a Jedi is like going to school, how did Luke become one?

Right - I was agreeing with you. I should have stated as such.

He was home-schooled in Dagobah
