Ahsoka season 2 is in the works. Not much is known about the follow-up to 2023's Star Wars spin-off show just yet, but we do know that creator Dave Filoni is the sole writer on the next season. Filming will commence this year.

Despite the lack of concrete information about what's next, though, there are some intriguing teases to dig into, as well as tons of fan predictions for the new season.

Below, we've rounded up everything there is to know about Ahsoka season 2, from the potential trailer release date through to possible plot details. We're keeping this page up to date with all the Ahsoka season 2 updates, too, so you'll get everything you need to see about the return of Snips at a glance.

Ahsoka season 2 release date speculation

Ahsoka season 2 doesn't yet have a release date. It's expected to go into production in 2025, though, so we can expect a late 2025 to early 2026 release. We'll keep this page updated with filming dates once they're available.

The show is tentatively set to begin filming the next batch of episodes in April 2025, with the production moving from Los Angeles to the UK (via IndieWire).

Per Dave Filoni's latest update on the show, he's still hard at work writing.

"I'm so well into that as well… I've been writing it, and I'm still the single writer on it, and so I've been enjoying doing that, but it's a challenge, of course, and working some of these arcs through has been a challenge and making sure it's all going to come out in a way that I think is exciting for fans," he told Extra TV.

"I know that they're interested in where some of the things I developed in season 1. I'm pretty happy with it… Love working with Rosario [Dawson], so I can't wait to get back to that."

Ahsoka season 2 plot theories

Ahsoka ended with Ahsoka Tano and Sabine Wren stranded in Peridea, while Grand Admiral Thrawn and Ezra Bridger both made it home to the main Star Wars galaxy. In the final moments of the season, we see Anakin Skywalker watching over Ahsoka and Sabine with a smile.

So far, not much is known about the Ahsoka season 2 plot, but we can make a guess based on the ending of season 1 and the first piece of concept art shared by Dave Filoni.

Baylan Skoll was last seen on a giant statue of the Father, a Force god representing the balance who was killed in The Clone Wars (read our World Between Worlds explainer for a full explanation). It would seem Baylan is seeking a great power, and the first piece of concept art for the new season shows Ahsoka and Sabine on the same statue, which is pointing into the distance. Could Baylan be seeking the power of the World Between Worlds? Time will tell, but it looks likely – and it seems Ahsoka and Sabine are on his trail.

There's no trailer for Ahsoka season 2 just yet, since we're still a long way away from the new episodes releasing. We can expect a teaser a few months before release – but until then, we'll just have to be patient.

Ahsoka season 2 cast: who might be returning?

The cast hasn't been confirmed for season 2 just yet, but we can assume the major players will be returning. Sadly, Ray Stevenson, who played Baylan Skoll in season 1, died in 2023. Reportedly, Game of Thrones star Rory McCann will take over the role.

This is who we're expecting to see again in season 2:

  • Rosario Dawson – Ahsoka Tano
  • Natasha Liu Bordizzo – Sabine Wren
  • Lars Mikkelsen – Grand Admiral Thrawn
  • Eman Esfandi – Ezra Bridger
  • Mary Elizabeth WinsteadHera Syndulla
  • Ivanna Sakhno – Shin Hati
  • Evan WhittenJacen Syndulla
  • Genevieve O'Reilly – Mon Mothma
  • David TennantHuyang
  • Hayden Christensen – Anakin Skywalker

How many episodes of Ahsoka season 2 are likely?

Nothing is confirmed just yet, but we expect the Ahsoka season 2 episode count to be the same as season 1 – eight episodes. That's also the same as all three seasons of The Mandalorian.

Where to watch Ahsoka season 2

The only place to watch Ahsoka season 2 is Disney Plus, and, for that, you'll need a subscription. The streamer is the home of all the Star Wars shows and movies, so you can get caught up on the rest of the saga, too.

However, season 1 is being released physically – so we can probably expect season 2 to eventually get a physical release, too.
