Filming for the second season of "Ahsoka" has wrapped, and actress Mary Elizabeth Winstead has confirmed that her character, Hera Syndulla, will be one of the key figures in the new episodes.
The second season of "Ahsoka" is already in post-production, and viewers will get more screen time with New Republic General Hera Syndulla, played by Mary Elizabeth Winstead. In the first season, her character was torn between loyalty to her friends and duty, risking a court-martial for disobeying orders. Now, according to the actress, Hera will play a more active role.
"I don't know how much I can reveal, but I am involved in the action a lot more this season—and it's been really fun. Hera is finally really doing things, as they say. I just finished filming, and it was an absolute blast. I can't wait for viewers to see everything."
Plot details are still being kept under wraps, but at Star Wars Celebration this year, series creator Dave Filoni confirmed that Hayden Christensen will reprise his role as Anakin Skywalker. It was also announced that Rory McCann will replace the late Ray Stevenson as Baylan Skoll, and the new season will feature a full-scale war against Grand Admiral Thrawn under the command of Admiral Ackbar.
The next project in the "Star Wars" universe will be the film "The Mandalorian & Grogu," scheduled for release on May 22, 2026. After that, presumably in the summer of 2026, the second season of "Ahsoka" is expected to be released, but the official date has not yet been announced.
