Star Wars: Ahsoka season 2 and Starfighter get teased at D23
Lucasfilm showcased new content at D23, including a trailer for the second season of Star Wars: Ahsoka and a teaser for the upcoming film Star Wars: Starfighter. The new season of Ahsoka is set to premiere in early 2027, while Starfighter is scheduled for a May 2027 theatrical release.
Why it matters
These announcements provide fans with a roadmap for major franchise expansions within the Star Wars universe.
Season two of Star Wars: Ahsoka is still months away, but Lucasfilm still took the opportunity to tease it a bit at D23. The company dropped the first trailer for the new season ahead of its January 20th, 2027 debut. The clip shows a darker, witchcraft-filled take on the Star Wars universe, with Grand Admiral Thrawn (blue skin, red eyes, and an unsettlingly calm demeanor) threatening to thrust the galaxy back into large-scale war after the fall of the Empire.
