Last Saturday was special for Star Wars fans , especially for those waiting for Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi. Not only did we know the release date during the D23 Expo, but we also received the first trailer. The trailer gives you a good idea of what awaits us on the show.
Tales of the Jedi will be a six-episode anthology of the history of the Jedi from the times of the Great Republic. The series will feature young Qui-Gon Jinn, Count Dooku as Jedi Master, Mace Windu, Anakin Skywalker, and Ahsoka Tano. Three episodes will focus on the character of Ahsoka , and the next three on the story of the younger Dooku. All episodes will be released simultaneously on Wednesday, October 26, so fans will be able to immediately delve into all the previously unknown tales of iconic characters from the universe. This is the first trailer:
Ashley Eckstein, the voice actress of the animated Tano, spoke to ComicBook.com about her joy at the growing popularity of her character:
I think I’m just looking forward to seeing more of Ahsoka as Ahsoka is a character widely loved by the entire Star Wars fandom . Everyone loves Ahsoka because he represents all that is good. It represents light and hope. I just look forward to hearing new stories because it means so much to the fans. This is a character who changed lives and saved them. I am serious because, as Ahsoka’s voice, I am constantly invited to various conventions and events. Practically every day I hear stories where Ahsoka changed someone’s life or saved it. Few characters can do this.
