  "summary": "Disney has revealed a teaser trailer for the second season of its live-action series Ahsoka at the D23 fan event in Anaheim, California. The new season, set to premiere on Disney+ on January 20, 2027, will continue the story of Ahsoka Tano, played by Rosario Dawson, as she faces threats from Grand Admiral Thrawn and explores a mysterious neighbouring galaxy.\n\nAccording to IGN, the second season will see the return of Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker, following his guest appearance in the first season via the extradimensional plane, The World Between Worlds. The storyline will also delve deeper into the threat posed by Grand Admiral Thrawn, a plot thread that was initially intended for The Mandalorian Season 4.\n\nThe second season of Ahsoka will pick up three-and-a-half years after the first episodes aired in August 2023. The show is a follow-up to Dave Filoni's 2014 animated series Star Wars: Rebels and has been in development for three years, with its cliffhanger finale set to be resolved in 2027.",
