Ahsoka is Disney's spin-off series of the hit series The Mandalorian. Rosario Dawson plays the role of Ahsoka Tano. Written by Star Wars Rebels co-creator Dave Filoni and produced by Filoni and Jon Favreau, Ahsoka will continue the story of the character from The Mandalorian. Filoni, Steph Green, Peter Ramsey, Jennifer Getzinger, Geeta Patel and Rick Famuyiwa are collaborating on the series.
