Star Wars fans can’t stop talking about Ahsoka Season 2, the next chapter of Rosario Dawson’s journey as Ahsoka Tano on Disney+. After a wild first season that introduced a new galaxy and brought back Star Wars Rebels favorites, excitement is through the roof. Here’s the latest rundown of everything known about the release date, cast, and plot for Ahsoka Season 2.
When Will Ahsoka Season 2 Hit Screens?
No official release date is out yet for Ahsoka Season 2, but there’s plenty to piece together. Filming started in the UK in late April 2025, as shared by Rosario Dawson and Dave Filoni at Star Wars Celebration Japan 2025. Ivanna Sakhno, who plays Shin Hati, mentioned recently that filming is “well underway,” suggesting production is chugging along in mid-2025.
Looking back, Ahsoka Season 1 filmed from May to October 2022 and dropped in August 2023—about 15 months from start to premiere. If Season 2 follows a similar timeline, expect a debut around July to September 2026, likely timed to avoid overlapping with The Mandalorian & Grogu movie in May 2026. Some chatter points to a late 2026 release, but a faster post-production could mean mid-2026. Keep an eye on Disney+ for the official word as filming wraps.

What’s the Plot of Ahsoka Season 2?
Ahsoka Season 2 picks up after Season 1’s cliffhanger, with Ahsoka and Sabine stuck on Peridea in a new galaxy, while Ezra and Thrawn made it back to the main Star Wars galaxy. The story splits into two epic threads:
-
Peridea and the Mortis Gods: Ahsoka and Sabine’s adventure on Peridea will lean hard into Star Wars’ mystical side. Season 1 ended with Baylan Skoll atop statues of the Mortis Gods (Father, Son, Daughter) from The Clone Wars. Filoni teased at Star Wars Celebration 2025 that these Force entities are a “huge mystery” for Season 2, possibly tied to the World Between Worlds—a dimension that could get Ahsoka and Sabine home. Expect clashes with Baylan, who’s chasing ultimate power, and Shin Hati, who’s hunting them. Concept art showed giant evil droids as new foes, promising intense battles.
-
Thrawn’s Threat to the New Republic: In the main galaxy, Thrawn teams up with Nightsisters and upgraded stormtroopers to challenge the New Republic. Filoni confirmed Admiral Ackbar will lead a naval battle against Thrawn, delivering classic Star Wars space action. Ezra and Hera will likely be key players, with Zeb adding Rebels grit. Thrawn’s trip to Dathomir with strange coffins hints at dark magic raising the stakes.
The season will have eight episodes, penned by Filoni, and tie into Star Wars Rebels, The Clone Wars, and Filoni’s Mandalorian crossover film. Fans are eager for more on Sabine’s Force growth and Ahsoka’s mentor role. Morai, the convor linked to the Daughter, suggests big Force moments. Plus, Sabine’s loth-cat Murley and new loth-kittens will bring some cuteness to Peridea.
