‘Star Wars’ Series ‘Ahsoka’ On The Hunt For A Live-Action Sabine Wren
By Jeremy Mathai/Aug. 11, 2021 9:54 am EST
First it was the beloved Star Wars character Ahsoka Tano who made the jump from animation to live action. Now she’ll be having some interesting company of her own, as the similarly fan-favorite Sabine Wren looks to be following in her footsteps in a development that’s sure to be a crowd-pleaser for fans of the animated shows.
In a larger article about Brad Winderbaum’s plans as the head of streaming, television and animation at Marvel Studios, The Hollywood Reporter includes a fascinating tidbit about Lucasfilm’s intentions for Sabine Wren (previously voiced by Tiya Sircar), a character long-rumored to star in a live-action series of her own after initially exploding onto the scene in the popular Star Wars Rebels animated series. Reportedly, the studio is now gearing up for the upcoming Disney+ series Ahsoka and has commenced the search for an actress to star as Wren opposite of Ahsoka, who has been voiced by Ashley Eckstein and portrayed by Rosario Dawson in The Mandalorian. The mere suggestion of a live action Sabine Wren casting, and the implication that she’ll be joining up once again with Ahsoka, points towards several compelling directions that this highly-anticipated Star Wars series could go in. One thing’s for sure: the live-action Star Wars shows on Disney+ will continue to feature even more close ties and continuations with Star Wars Rebels.

What Sabine Wren Means for the Future of Star Wars
The future of Star Wars is increasingly connected. Casual fans (like me!) would be well-advised to brush up on their knowledge if they want to be as well-prepared as they can be for the upcoming Ahsoka series.
