Watch Ahsoka online
The first two episodes of Ahsoka will be available to stream globally from 9pm ET Tuesday, August 22 (2am BST Weds moring) with a subscription to Disney Plus. Each of the remaining six episodes will be released weekly.
If there’s one character more riveting than Anakin Skywalker, it’s surely the apprentice who was such a colossal pain in the neck that she sent him over to the dark side. Okay, not exactly, but Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson), who first burst onto the scene as a feisty young Padawan, became an instant fan-favorite for good reason.
She’s been in the presence of greatness, nicknamed it “Sky Guy”, and not only risen to meet the challenge but dished out some valuable lessons along the way. The montrals and lekku, orange skin, and two-lightsaber fighting style only add to the appeal.
Set at the same time asThe Mandalorian season 3and after the events of Return Of The Jedi and The Book of Boba Fett, the eight-part series charts Ahsoka’s pursuit of Grand Admiral Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen), who’s as slippery as he is well-connected, the uncompromising mercenary Baylan Skoll (Ray Stevenson) being one of the red-eyed general’s most useful allies.
There appears to be a significant role for Anakin (Hayden Christensen), via a succession of flashbacks, and his connection with Ahsoka will be a reference point for Ahsoka’s difficult relationship with her own young protégé, the bounty hunting, spraypaint-wielding, hair-cutting Mandalorian polymath Sabine Wren (Natasha Liu Bordizzo).
Episodes 1 and 2 drop at 9pm ET on Tuesday, August 22 (slightly earlier than Disney originally planned). Read on as we explain how to watch Ahsoka online from anywhere.
