Ahsoka Season 2’s Omission From Disney’s 2026 Lineup Sparks Concern
Ahsoka’s second season is missing from Disney’s 2026 release schedule, leaving fans uneasy about a possible delay to 2027, even though filming wraps in September 2025.
There’s a bit of a stir among Star Wars fans after Disney’s latest release schedule update left Ahsoka’s second season off the list for 2026. The much-anticipated follow-up, which wrapped filming in September 2025, was widely tipped to land on Disney Plus sometime next year. With the first season having dropped back in August 2023, punters were keen for a return to the galaxy far, far away. But the absence of any mention during Disney’s Q4 earnings call has left many wondering if they’ll be waiting until 2027 for the next chapter.
Fans React to the Silence
Social media has been buzzing with reactions from viewers who’ve been hanging out for news. Some reckon the long wait is a bit rough, with a few calling it
disrespectful to the audience given the long wait
. The show’s cast, led by Rosario Dawson as Ahsoka Tano—Anakin Skywalker’s former apprentice—has become a favourite among locals. Natasha Liu Bordizzo returns as Sabine Wren, the Mandalorian warrior, while Mary Elizabeth Winstead is back as Hera Syndulla, now a general in the New Republic. Hayden Christensen reprises his role as Anakin Skywalker, and Game of Thrones’ Rory McCann steps in as Baylan Skoll, taking over from the late Ray Stevenson.
What’s Next for the Crew?
The first season wrapped up with a cliffhanger, leaving Ahsoka and Sabine stranded on Peridea after Grand Admiral Thrawn’s escape. Despite the radio silence on plot details, it’s been reported that the new season won’t kick off with a time jump. That means the story will pick up right where things left off, with the pair still stuck and the fate of the galaxy hanging in the balance. Beyond that, Disney’s keeping the rest of the storyline under wraps, so fans are left to speculate about what’s in store.
Waiting Game for Star Wars Fans
With no official word on when the next season will drop, the Star Wars faithful are left in limbo. While some are taking the mickey out of the situation online, others are genuinely frustrated by the lack of updates. In the meantime, those keen for more can check out guides to other upcoming Star Wars films and series, but for now, the wait for Ahsoka’s return continues.
