Grand Admiral Thrawn’s arrival hung heavy over Ahsoka episode 1 and 2, after the map leading to his potential location was found by Ahsoka Tano. After a brutal lightsaber battle between Sabine Wren and Shin Hati, this found its way into the wrong hands as Morgan Elsbeth readied the Eye of Sion to try and find the Imperial and bring him back for good.
We know from the Ahsoka trailer that Thrawn will be making an appearance at some point, and will be played in live-action by his voice actor in Rebels, Lars Mikkelsen. However, some fans think that creator Dave Filoni may be setting up a terrifying misdirect with the character.
