We can finally put a name to the face of Ahsoka's villain – the upcoming Disney Plus series will see Grand Admiral Thrawn played by Lars Mikkelsen, the actor who voices the character in the animated Star Wars: Rebels.
The news was revealed during the Ahsoka panel at this year's Star Wars Celebration, where Total Film, SFX, and GamesRadar+ are on the ground to bring you all the news as it happens. "It's wonderful," Mikkelsen told the crowd about returning as Thrawn. "Thank you so much." He appeared in some exclusive footage shown to the crowd, which featured the first look at his epic live-action look.
