Over the weekend, Lucasfilm released the first trailers for Ahsoka and The Mandalorian season 3...at Star Wars Celebration. Unfortunately, neither of those teasers have been shared online; there were some leaked copies out there, but Disney has acted quickly to pull them from social media platforms.
The Ahsoka sneak peek confirmed some big returns in the Disney+ series, including Hera Syndulla! The Star Wars Rebels character was only shown from behind, but she's clearly been cast, and we can't help but wonder if this is who Mary Elizabeth Winstead will play in the show.
Hera's trusty droid, Chopper, was brought out on stage and also announced for Ahsoka, while Natasha Liu has finally been confirmed as Sabine Wren. She was spotted right at the end of the teaser looking at the mural she painted of Ezra Bridger and the team in the Star Wars Rebels finale.
Elsewhere in the footage, we saw Huyang, the droid played by David Tennant in The Clone Wars and Rebels.
As for The Mandalorian, fans got to see more of Katee Sackhoff's Bo-Katan Kryze and her fellow Mandalorians, with a first proper look at Mandalore blowing the roof off the building.
There was also a Star Destroyer - we anticipate the show revealing more about how the Empire became The First Order - and a couple of creatures who are clearly the same species as The Rise of Skywalker's Babu Frik. While The Mandalorian is currently in post-production, this footage looks phenomenal, and waiting until next February isn't going to be easy for Star Wars fans.
Both Ahsoka and The Mandalorian will premiere on Disney+ in 2023.
