The galaxy far, far away will not be complete without the action on top of the narrative which makes it a combo that one would follow until the ends of the galaxy, or even beyond. These action scenes are brought to perfection through a series of practice and training over the course of months before it comes out. For Eman Esfandi who brought Ezra Bridger to life in Ahsoka, he already has his top picks of fight scenes in the series and as it has been renewed for Season 2, more action scenes are to be expected in the upcoming sequel of the show.
Great news for all the fans of Ahsoka as the series has been officially renewed for Season 2 and with this comes the excitement of everyone following the show on where the next steps of the series would be, including how much action scenes it would have. One of the actors from the first season who is likely to return is Eman Esfandi who plays Ezra Bridger for the first time in live-action when he debuted in Ahsoka. Speaking with the Dagobah Dispatch podcast, Eman Esfandi reveals his top action scene picks:
I guess I surprised myself at how many of the different moves they taught me I could put in succession, right, in the choreo that they planned... It felt like goofy for most of the time, and then all of a sudden, it came together and it wasn’t goofy anymore... I think the succinctness of it was the most impressive part. I think the most fun was the fight scene with my lightsaber, which is the first thing I shot... it’s the first time you see Ezra use a lightsaber in the show against the Night Troopers. There’s something real special about, you know, slashing a bunch of troopers with a lightsaber, and then actually, practical effects blowing up and going off and falling and… it’s pretty surreal.
Esfandi says that he surprised himself on how he could follow the moves for the action scenes. At a point, following the choreography of the fight scenes would seem like a dance but when viewed from the audiences' perspective, it becomes a perfection that the actors are, as if, actually fighting. More of these are expected to appear in Ahsoka Season 2.
Is Ezra Bridger coming back in Ahsoka Season 2?
Earlier this week, the official announcement of Ahsoka Season 2 to be under development was subtly made by Disney through StarWars.com alongside the announcement of The Mandalorian & Grogu movie to be directed by Jon Favreau. In the announcement, Disney sneakily announced that Ahsoka Season 2 is happening saying, "The Mandalorian & Grogu will lead Lucasfilm's ongoing feature-development slate, including films helmed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, James Mangold, and Dave Filoni, who is also currently developing Ahsoka Season 2, among those in the works."
With the announcement of Ahsoka Season 2 done subtly, there are no information yet as regards what the story would be or who would come back from the first season. As per the return of Eman Esfandi as Ezra Bridger, there remains a huge possibility that he would be back for Ahsoka Season 2 given what happened in the finale of the first season. Ezra Bridger managed to escape Peridea but Ahsoka Tano and Sabine Wren were stranded on the planet, thus, Bridger could possibly come back to save them or a way for them to come home.
Ahsoka Season 2 has no release date yet. Season 1 is available to stream on Disney Plus.
