In surprising news, Ahsoka season 2 won’t arrive until early 2027.
The Star Wars show was previously expected to release in 2026, which Lucasfilm even seemed to recently confirm.
However, at Disney’s Upfront showcase, Ahsoka Tano actor Rosario Dawson took to the stage to reveal that the Disney Plus show has a premiere window of early 2027.

“It’s truly special seeing all the love from fans out there for Ahsoka and her crew,” she said (via StarWars.com). “I can tell you this season, the battles are bigger and the stakes are higher. We cannot wait for you to see.”
Those in attendance were also treated to a sizzle reel featuring space battles, lightsaber fights, and Hayden Christensen’s Anakin Skywalker.
Ahsoka’s new release window means that 2026 will be the first year since 2019 without a live-action Star Wars show: 2019 had The Mandalorian season 1, 2020 had The Mandalorian season 2, 2021 had The Book of Boba Fett, 2022 had Obi-Wan Kenobi and Andor, 2023 had The Mandalorian season 3 and Ahsoka, 2024 had The Acolyte and Skeleton Crew, and 2025 had Andor season 2.
But, this year has already seen the release of the animated Maul – Shadow Lord, while The Mandalorian and Grogu, the first Star Wars movie in seven years, is hitting the big screen imminently. Next year, meanwhile, will also see the release of Star Wars: Starfighter.
At Star Wars Celebration 2025, Dave Filoni revealed that Ahsoka season 2 would feature a showdown between Admiral Ackbar and Grand Admiral Thrawn, and a behind-closed-doors first look (of sorts) teased battles across different galaxies and giant, evil droids. Plus, Christensen himself revealed he would be returning, while Rory McCann taking over as Baylan Skoll from the late Ray Stevenson was also confirmed.
While Ahsoka season 2 doesn’t have a firm release date just yet, May 2027 will mark the 50th anniversary of the original Star Wars movie, and Star Wars Celebration returns to LA in April. So, it wouldn’t be too surprising if Ahsoka season 2’s release date was planned so that episodes are dropping through at least one of these events.
The Mandalorian and Grogu arrives this May 22. While you wait, check out our guide to all the upcoming Star Wars movies and TV shows, or see our interview with director Jon Favreau on bringing Star Wars back to the big screen and Grogu’s Jedi journey.
