JJ Abrams teased an appearance by Ahsoka Tano. It would probably just be a brief blink and you miss it thing like the Ghost and Chopper in Rogue One, but I'll take it. If true, I hope they get Ashley Eckstine in the makeup. https://www.starwarsnewsnet.com/201...n-star-wars-the-rise-of-skywalker.html/?amp=1
Poor Kylo crying into the Vader mask about he Vader must teach him. "There is nothing you can learn from him." "Who said that?" Bzzzjjjouuu ... two white glow sticks poke through the smoke machine. "The one true student of Anakin Skywalker. Draw, motherfucker." Theatres across the world explode. And Bryce Howard also.
Even a blink and you miss it cameo by Ahsoka would be enough for me. Just seeing her presence finally acknowledged by the live action movies would make me happy.
I thought she got cut down during Order 66 in The Revenge of the Sith? Looking back, it seems the Empire did a pretty poor job hunting down the Jedi.
Ashoka is canonically still alive after Return of the Jedi. I suck at math, but I think she would somewhere around late-60s to early 70s. But then who knows how Troguta age. She could still be spry as a bumblebee.
Ahsoka was born 36 years before the Battle of Yavin. Per Wookiepedia, Rise or Skywalker takes place 35 years after Yavjn. She would be 71 at the time of TRoS.
Depending on if they stick the landing, I think the sequel trilogy might overtake the original as my favorite.
I won't be able to see it :-( Have my tickets to the Chinese and everything, but gf just had back surgery and I need to take care of her.
