Ashley Eckstein Shared The Story Behind Her ‘Constant’ Debate With Dave Filoni About Ahsoka And What She 'Always Wanted' From The Clone Wars

Ahsoka Tano on Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

The galaxy far, far away has new stories available for Star Wars fans with a Disney+ subscription in the 2025 TV schedule, with the release of LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy - Pieces of the Past. The four-part animated series recruited some of the biggest names from the franchise to join the cast, including Ashley Eckstein, who has been voicing Ahsoka Tano going back to the earliest days of The Clone Wars. The actress spoke with CinemaBlend about what she always hoped to do on Clone Wars and discussed with executive producer Dave Filoni.

LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy was Eckstein's first opportunity to reprise her role as Ahsoka Tano since Rosario Dawson took over the character in live-action. She shared that Dave Filoni had promised her that she would "always be the voice of Ahsoka in animation," and was understandably emotional when she got the call about Rebuild the Galaxy. That's not to say that the LEGO Star Wars version of Ahsoka is the same as the one whose life was getting progressively worse as each season of The Clone Wars passed.
