Star Wars Rebel executive producer Henry Gilroy says they never planned to make Sabine Wren a Jedi in the animated series, and don't understand why it happened in Ahsoka.
"It was absolutely not the plan… We really felt, not only did it step on Ezra’s story, but it was a retread. Like we already did this," Gilroy told Pod of Rebellion. "The idea of Sabine training as a Jedi when she is already this fantastic warrior of her own type, we felt like this is overkill."
