The premiere of Ahsoka is only a week away and Star Wars is making sure fans are properly hyped up for the show's arrival. A new teaser for the highly anticipated Disney+ show offers an extended look at Hera Syndulla in action. In addition to that, we get to see Ahsoka Tano wielding dual lightsabers as she takes on a new Inquisitor.
The new teaser puts the focus on Hera Syndulla as she faces off against several ships. Luckily, she had her trusty droid Chopper with her but he doesn't seem happy about being thrust into the action. Still, Hera is eager to defend her home with the help of her long-time ally.
But that's not the only thing that's exciting about the new Ahsoka teaser. We also get a glimpse of Ahsoka fighting an Inquisitor and his droid. She swiftly dismantles the droid and prepares to fight the Inquisitor one on one.
It was previously confirmed that Ahsoka will feature a new Inquisitor named Marrok who is played by Paul Darnell. The Inquisitor has already been shown with a dangerous new weapon and it looks like the double-bladed lightsaber isn't the only thing he has up his sleeve. There are speculations that this is someone who has faced Ahsoka before.
Marrok is far from the first Inquisitorius to take on Ahsoka Tano. She had previously fought (and killed) the Sixth Brother in the 2016 novel Ahsoka by E.K. Johnston. She also went up against an unnamed Inquisitor in the animated series Tales of the Jedi. However, it is believed that the show featured the same Inquisitorius from the book.
Ahsoka will star Rosario Dawson as Ahsoka Tano, Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Sabine Wren, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Syndulla, Eman Esfandi as Ezra Bridger, and Lars Mikkelsen as Grand Admiral Thrawn. Hayden Christensen is also expected to reprise his role as Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader. The series is set for a two-episode premiere on August 23, 2023.
