‘Ahsoka’ Season 2 Production Confirmed for 2025!!

Star Wars fanatics who have been counting down the days until the continuation of Ahsoka have just been given a big boost, with the news that the second season of the fan favorite series is set to begin production next spring. IndieWire is reporting that Ahsoka Season 2 will be officially relocating production to the United Kingdom, with filming slated to begin in April 2025. The move to the UK for Ahsoka signals a departure from the methods used for its first season, which was filmed entirely on Los Angeles’ cutting-edge “volume stages” at Manhattan Beach Studios. The “volume stage” technology, developed by Industrial Light & Magic, uses wraparound LED screens to immerse actors in whatever digital surrounds they like, where they can load backgrounds in real time rather than adding them later on a green screen.

This is actually surprising news, because the last we’d heard in September 2024, production wasn’t actually expected to commence until the summer of 2025. That date came from Natasha Liu Bordizzo, who plays Sabine Wren, when she was speaking at Dragon Con 2024, where she participated in a Star Wars panel alongside other stars from the franchise’s Disney+ series, including Giancarlo Esposito, Manny Jacinto, and Danny Trejo.

This news that production will begin sooner than expected is thrilling for many fans, especially given the numerous cliffhangers that Season 1 left unresolved. Ahsoka Season 1, which aired in late summer and early fall of 2023, was the live-action debut for several beloved characters from Star Wars Rebels and The Clone Wars. The show was a bit hit, thanks to its stunning visuals, well told story, and how well rounded the characters were, particularly Sabine Wren and Ahsoka Tano, played by Rosario Dawson. It also didn’t hurt that Hayden Christensen also appeared in a few episodes as Anakin Skywalker as a kind of spooky, charming limbo spirit guide. Exactly what Shmi would have wanted. Yippee!

What Other ‘Star Wars’ Projects Are Upcoming?

The latest Star Wars series, Skeleton Crew, debuted on Disney+ earlier this week. The series follows four children who find themselves lost in the galaxy, encountering a mysterious Force user named Jod Na Nawood, portrayed by Jude Law, and is set during the New Republic era alongside The Mandalorian and Ahsoka. Additionally, The Mandalorian and Grogu movie is slated for a May 2026 release, likely preceding the release of Ahsoka Season 2. The movie recently wrapped production, and will see Pedro Pascal return as the voice and occasional face of Din Djarin — the titular Mandalorian. Grogu appears as himself.

Ahsoka Season 1 is available to stream on Disney+ now.
