Live-action Ahsoka Tano!

I'm late on this cuz of all the plague stuff, but here we go....

Rosario Dawson is Ahsoka in Mandalorian season 2.

Clone Wars and Rebels were already live-action canonized with the connections to "Rogue One", but this connects Mandalorian to the main saga better.

There's talk of Ahsoka getting a spinoff if she's received well enough by the Mando fans.

Very clever, Lucasfilm.
First, you make Mando, which has all the stuff fanboys like, then you ease the other stuff in from animation and comics, and build out from there.

Mando is the Iron Man of the Star Wars Disney+ universe.

Anyway, for people who didn't watch the cartoons, which is most people, Ahsoka is Anakin's apprentice.
She premiered in the Clone Wars animated movie (happens between Clones and Sith).
They weaved her around the prequel trilogy by having her framed for a crime, and then being found innocent, but she still quit the Jedi in disgust anyway (which is why she's not in Sith).
Then she came back in Rebels (which is between Sith and Hope).
Then Rebels jumped ahead to sometime after "Return Of The Jedi", which is where Mandalorian happens.

So, looks like even more the future of Star Wars is on TV.

Mando season 2 is shot, so the plague won't effect it.
