We already know that Anakin Skywalker is back in Ahsoka, thanks to Ahsoka Tano's surprise arrival in the World Between Worlds in the previous episode. With that in mind, we'll be seeing more of Hayden Christensen this week and Star Wars is hyping up Anakin's comeback with a special emoji ahead of the Episode 5 premiere.
In Ahsoka Episode 4, Ahsoka was thrown down a cliff during her fight against Baylan Skoll. Although she is initially assumed dead, it is revealed that she ended up in the Worlds Between Worlds where she is reunited with her former Master Anakin Skywalker.
The episode ends before the two could exchange words but Star Wars clearly has huge plans for the next episode. X (formerly Twitter) has unveiled a new Anakin Skywalker emoji whenever you use the hashtag #Anakin on the platform.
It's clear that Ahsoka Episode 5 is going to be one of the biggest ones for the show after everything that happened last week. In addition to the World Between Worlds reunion between two former Jedi, Episode 4 saw the completion of the Eye of Scion and the capture of Sabine Wren.
What happens to Sabine Wren in Ahsoka Episode 5?
After Baylan reclaimed the star map from Sabine, she agreed to join him as he and Morgan Elsbeth set off to find Grand Admiral Thrawn. Sabine's intention is to find Ezra Bridger, who was with Thrawn when they both disappeared in Star Wars Rebels.
Although it looks like Sabine might be in trouble, there is hope that she and Ezra will work together and make their escape from Thrawn and his allies. The idea of Sabine and Ezra's reunion is already something to look forward to this week along with the continued interaction between Ahsoka and Anakin.
Ahsoka Episode 5 will be written and directed by Dave Filoni and is set for a limited theatrical release. The fifth episode of the Star Wars series will premiere on Disney+ and selected cinemas on Tuesday, September 12, 2023.
