https://www.joblo.com/movie-news/disney-casting-star-wars-rebels-ezra-for-new-disney-series I haven't watched Rebels yet, but it's pretty interesting (fill in your own definition of the word there) that Disney is really hitting it up big time with live action Star Wars shows these days.
If this is true, I wonder if the Ezra/rumored Ahsoka show will be one and the same. Or maybe continuations of one another?
There's a rumour that they're casting for Thrawn as well https://comicbook.com/starwars/news...XOfFKX1yX0lVbxl38BtTNhQsxjfmsn2uY7X9XFA-in9hM
Little bit more sceptical about this one, given the source for the article comes from this article, on a site I've never heard of and thus have no idea what their track record is, and which in turn doesn't really give a source for it's information. So until I hear it from a more reliable source I'm going to file this one under "probable clickbait". Of course it's entirely possible that it is fabricated clickbait AND they're looking to cast a live action Ezra. I mean given the other semi-credible rumours it's really not hard to come up with this news just as a reasonable guess.
I've seen the Illuminerdi pop up in other similar stories recently, but I have no idea if any of the supposed scoops have actually been legit. If it is it's pretty cool, especially if it's going to be a full on follow up to Rebels with Thrawn, Ahsoka, and Sabine.
The idea that they're casting Thrawn also makes me suspicious. The only reason not to just keep Lars Mikkelsen is if he's not interested. Given that this would be Disney money and the prestige of one of the more up and coming streaming franchises, I doubt a little blue face paint would put him off.
