Welcome back everyone it's Charlie this is going to be my new star wars mandalorian video and
breakdown of the new ahsoka tano teaser trailer they've released this weekend when they explain
what's going on with her spin-off series so also talk about what's happening with anakin skywalker
now because hayden christensen is coming back because there have been so many questions about
the other projects he might show up in if you're new to the channel be sure to subscribe to get all
the videos obviously we have the mandalorian season 2 finale coming up this week but i'll
be doing mandalorian season 3 videos really soon and there's a couple other star wars series that
we'll be seeing during 2021. careful for spoilers for everything that's happened on the mandalorian
so far if you haven't seen any of the episodes yet starting with number 10. this past week you
probably saw they announced 10 total new star wars series that they're releasing in the next
few years so that means eventually we're going to be getting three to four new star wars series
every year but that probably won't be till about 2022 before they ramp up to that volume
only two of those series though are going to be direct spin-offs of the mandalorian and will
happen during the same time period where we are right now after the end of season two the ahsoka
tano series with rosario dawson and then the rangers of the new republic series about the
x-wing pilots patrolling the outer rim like carson teva that we've seen the last couple of episodes
trapper wolfe dave felody's character the other x-wing pilots i'll talk more about that at the
end of the video because this is more about ahsoka tano and what she's going to be doing during her
series and what's going on with hayden christensen coming back to star wars is anakin skywalker and
darth vader because some of the scenes he's going to be filming for the obi-wan kenobi
series we learned will be flashbacks so a lot of you have now asked if he's going to also appear
with ahsoka tano in some way there's a much larger design behind all these plans you may
have also heard during the disney investor panel that the mandalorian spin-offs will all culminate
in a big event crossover involving grand admiral thrawn and probably moff gideon so i'll explain
how that's going to work during the video too so they're going to have their own version of
avengers infinity war and avengers end game sort of like the avengers series set in a mandalorian
cinematic universe in this part of the timeline if you didn't see it they had a really short teaser
that they showed up with some concept footage the really big easter egg with her logo here as a lot
of you have spotted is that this circle that's actually rotating around and shifting is actually
a jedi meditation circle they show up during jedi fallen order in the game they use those for game
saves but a lot of the symbols in the writing around the edges here is just the ancient jedi
language you actually see it in the ancient jedi texts during the star wars movies the reason why
it also kind of looks like a star chart for the galaxy itself is because it's actually designed
to look like the world between worlds is sort of this extra dimensional space within the force that
connects all times and places you can use it to time travel to anywhere in the galaxy that you
want and ezra bridger used it to save ahsoka's life and pluck her into a different time period
but number nine we finally got live action ahsoka tano during the mandalorian season 2
episode 5 rosario dawson was fantastic as the character especially given everyone who's been
watching ahsoka for the past 10 to 12 years only knows her as ashley eckstein's version
of the character yes it's totally possible that we could see ashley eckstein cameo as some other
character or be involved in some way during the star wars ahsoka series it makes sense if she came
out as a character it would be during that series both dave filoni and john favreau show runners of
the mandalorian are also executive producing the ahsoka series and that other new republic series
after the episode dave filoni also came out and clarified ahsoka's timeline between star wars
rebels the new series and what's going to be happening with her spin-off series so number
eight they pretty much given away what the story of her series is going to be between the ahsoka
ending scene from episode 5 of the mandalorian the disney investor panel the past few weeks the
stuff that rosario dawson's been talking about all the other star wars characters about the future of
ahsoka in the star wars universe when you sort of pull from all these other sources you have a
pretty good idea of what's going to be happening at the end of episode 5 she defeats morgan
ellsbeth who herself is from dathomir actually so she's probably one of the night sisters so
hopefully we'll see some night sisters popping up in the live-action shows soon we learned she
was one of grand admiral thrawn's lackeys and ahsoka defeats her demanding that she tell her
where he is implying that she's still trying to track thrawn down after the end of star wars
rebels so in a very broad sense the ahsoka series will basically be the story of ahsoka vs thrawn
is way bigger than that involving a bunch of mandalorian crossover and crossover with the other
spin-off series the rangers the new republic but dave veloni said something really interesting a
few weeks ago that clarified the timeline and how this is all going to work so the last time that we
saw ahsoka before she showed up on the mandalorian live-action as rosario dawson previously everyone
had assumed that this last scene of ahsoka tano and sabine wren during the star wars rebel finale
end credit scene was happening right before she shows up on the mandalorian series there's a big
time jump that happens during that final episode they have their final battle with grand admiral
thrawn ezra bridger sacrifices himself using the space whale's ability to navigate hyperspace
naturally using the force he takes thrawn the chimera his whole fleet of star destroyers
deep into the unknown regions where they can't hurt the rebels and that was about a year or two
before the events of a new hope then there's a big time jump and they show the celebrations of
all the different worlds they're having after the second death star is destroyed in return
of the jedi they kinda did the same thing on the mandalorian season two episode one with everybody
in the bar on tatooine getting wasted watching the second death star blow up on the hollow net then
we see a much older version of sabine wren meeting a much older version of ahsoka tano talking about
going to find ezra bridger because five plus years later he still hasn't returned from wherever the
space whales took them so dave filoni came out right after the ahsoka tano mandalorian episode to
clarify that this scene of them taking off to look for ezra might actually happen after the events of
the mandalorian season 2 episode 5. at the time the explanation seemed like it was unnecessarily
complicated but number six the reason why i think dave filoni said that is because
he was unofficially confirming that their mission ahsoka and sabine's mission to find ezra will be
covered during the ahsoka series they didn't say how many seasons it would run but ahsoka
tano is such a huge character and there's so much story for them to do it could go for at least five
to seven seasons if they wanted i'm sure rosario dawson would be down for that too the whole thing
with live-action ezra bridger is that if grand admiral thrawn is confirmed to have returned
from the unknown regions that's why ahsoka is looking for him right now it also kind of confirms
that ezra bridger made it back too and it's up to ahsoka and sabine and whoever else they bring back
from rebels like maybe rex will come back because we have tamura morrison coming on as boba fett he
could also come back as the other clones rex is still alive and present day it'll be up to them
to find out why ezra hasn't tried to make contact with them since coming back and the reason for
that will probably wind up having something to do with grand admiral thrawn's grand plans to conquer
the galaxy and all the stuff happening with moff gideon because right now those two characters are
kind of like the new versions of darth vader in the emperor palpatine of this new era of disney
plus series moff gideon being the darth vader of this equation and thrawn being more like the
calculating more secretive emperor figure pulling the strings from afar i've talked about this in
a couple of my other mandalorian videos but it feels like there have been so many easter eggs
this season for the thrawn trilogy of books that the new live-action thrawn story might be dave
filoni and jon favreau's version of a thrawn trilogy for those of you that read the books
really awesome story that's technically still legends dave filoni is the one that recanonized
thrawn through star wars rebels but he didn't re-canonize everything from those stories so
i'm not expecting them to do a copy paste version of a thrawn trilogy but imagine a version of that
thrawn trilogy just done across all the new series that now connect with the mandalorian here's where
we get to the hayden christensen anakin skywalker of it all though it was confirmed that he's coming
back to play darth vader and anakin on the obi-wan kenobi series that series is set 10 years after
revenge of the sith which puts it about 15 years before the events of the mandalorian in the ahsoka
series because the ahsoka series takes place at the same time as the mandalorian series
darth vader normally walks around in his armor and sounds like james earl jones with that deep voice
i am the father so the real reason is a lot of you have probably guessed for casting hayden
christensen going through the trouble that or one to do burnt scarred anakin with his mask off like
we see during rogue one in his regeneration chamber in the baka tanks two to show him
speaking as anakin skywalker under his mask when obi-wan probably winds up breaking it open with
his lightsaber so you're seeing anakin under the mask and he sounds like anakin again and three it
was also reported that there's going to be some sort of anakin skywalker flashbacks to stuff
during order 66 and before he was burnt before he lost the high ground post all the memes so with
hayden christensen coming back to do all this anakin skywalker darth vader stuff a lot of you
have also been asking if that means they'd also try to do some sort of live-action ahsoka tano
anakin skywalker scenes either using flashbacks or in present day with an older version of ahsoka
using force ghost anakin so that you could have a scene with the two of them speaking to each other
in live action at this point anything is possible given what dave filoni has been doing the past
couple of years he's been trying to do as many of these animated characters in live action and have
it all make sense in the timeline and think about what he did with the final clone wars episodes
the whole point of the final clone war season 7 episodes the reason they overlap with revenge
of the sith is because he wanted to work ahsoka and wrex the other major clone wars characters
from animation into the official movie canon so like why wasn't ahsoka there helping anakin
one of her greatest regrets and i hope that they cover this during the ahsoka series
is that she feels like if she had been there with anakin during the events of revenge of
the sith she could have stopped him from turning to the dark side and saved him
you get a sense for some of that when she's talking to mando about grogu's history in order
66 about how the jedi order is almost all gone now but he just brought ahsoka tano into live
action with bo katan and grand admiral thrawn these other animated characters so it makes
sense that he would also want to work them into the movie canon as well do that in live action
you guys can let me know in the comments though would you rather see force ghost anakin talking
to older ahsoka or would you rather see flashbacks with the two of them because rosario dawson still
looks almost as young as she did 15 to 20 years ago so it actually wouldn't be that hard to just
make her look like a younger version of ahsoka but according to the star wars people and given
all these easter eggs the big event crossover that the ahsoka series ranges the new republic and the
mandalorian are supposed to culminate in as they were talking about at the disney investor meeting
will be them defeating grand admiral thrawn and maybe moff gideon and when they said that the
series will all culminate in a big crossover event they did not say when that would happen
i think that just depends on how long these other spin-off series run they've already confirmed that
they're getting ready to ramp up to production on the mandalorian season 3 that'll be releasing
episodes starting christmas day 2021 next year they've already announced their release date
which is pretty crazy the ahsoka series in the new republic series probably won't premiere till 2022
so what's probably going to happen is next year on the mandalorian season 3 we'll see ahsoka tano
bogatan come back maybe even grand admiral thrawn and we'll just pick up with them right before the
events of their spin-off series begin in going forward you'll see all the characters from all
these different interconnected series just bounce back and forth in cameo on each other's episodes
rosario dawson didn't confirm whether or not she's coming back to cameo in the mandalorian
season 2 finale she made it sound like she was but that's not confirmed my video for that will
post this friday just like normal so make sure you have alerts turned on for my channel so you
don't miss that there's so many story lines that they have to wrap up i'm not expecting everybody
to come back for the finale but everybody you've seen who survives the finale will wind up coming
back at some point during season three could you even imagine everyone threatening to cancel
their disney plus subscriptions if they tried to kill grogu in the finale or hurt him in any way
if anyone's wearing plot armor in the finale it'll be grogu besgar forged plot armor but this is the
full spread of all those new star wars series that they announced that are coming in the next
couple of years i will be doing episode videos for all this stuff so it's going to be crazy
in the best possible way everyone click here for my breakdown of that new star wars obi-wan

season 2 episode 7 video thank you so much for watching everyone stay safe this is the way!
