Darth Vader will reportedly return in the upcoming Ahsoka series led by Rosario Dawson.
The most iconic figure in Star Wars has gotten his fair share of screen time in projects during the Disney era. The character first appeared in Star Wars Rebels, then Rogue One, and most recently, turned up in Obi-Wan Kenobi with his biggest role yet. It’s already been reported that Hayden Christensen would appear as Anakin Skywalker in Ahsoka, presumably as a Force ghost, but according to Making Star Wars, we will also get to see Darth Vader.
How Will Ahoska Use Darth Vader?
It’s unclear what role Darth Vader might play in Ahsoka, which will take place after the events of the original trilogy. The report goes on to say that a new suit was constructed for Ahsoka, would be worn by Tom O’Connel, and be used for lightsaber battles. With Darth Vader dead and Ahsoka taking place after the original trilogy, the new series might recreate what we saw in Star Wars Rebels. There’s also a chance Darth Vader might just be part of a vision Ahsoka experiences.
Here is the synopsis for the most recent Star Wars series, Obi-Wan Kenobi:
During the reign of the Galactic Empire, former Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi embarks on a crucial mission. Kenobi must confront allies turned enemies and face the wrath of the Empire.
Directed by Deborah Chow from Joby Harold’s scripts, the series stars Ewan McGregor, Hayden Christensen, Moses Ingram, Joel Edgerton, Bonnie Piesse, Kumail Nanjiani, Indira Varma, Rupert Friend, O’Shea Jackson Jr., Sung Kang, Simone Kessell, and Benny Safdie. The series will also see the return of legendary Star Wars composer John Williams, who scored a theme.
