"Star Wars Rebels" ended with Ezra Bridger hurling himself and Grand Admiral Thrawn to the other side of the galaxy with the help of a herd of Force-sensitive space whales, called Purrgil. But he'll show up in "Ahsoka," and he'll be played by relative newcomer, Eman Esfandi.

Per the actor's IMDb page, he's starred in a number of short films, as well as playing Barry in "King Richard."

The late Ray Stevenson is playing a former Jedi, Baylan Skoll, who uses the dark side of the Force.

Ray Stevenson died in May but he'll posthumously appear as Baylan Skoll in "Ahsoka."

The actor has a lengthy filmography, including the likes of "King Arthur," "Punisher: War Zone," "Thor," "Divergent," and "Dexter."

Skoll is an original character for the series, but the trailer suggests that he wields the dark side of the Force and works with Morgan Elsbeth (Dianna Lee Inosanto).

Yes, you read that right, "Doctor Who" star David Tennant will appear in the "Ahsoka" series. He's playing Huyang, an ancient droid who used to help young Jedi padawans build their first lightsaber.

Tennant previously voiced the character in the "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" animated series, set before the fall of the Jedi. So it'll be interesting to see how Huyang fits into "Ahsoka."

The Scottish actor is obviously best known for playing the eleventh doctor in the classic British sci-fi series, as well as Barty Crouch in "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire," Detective Alec Hardy in "Broadchurch," and the demon Crowley in "Good Omens."

Irish star Genevieve O'Reilly briefly played rebel politician and leader Mon Mothma in scenes that were cut from "Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith," but returned to the role for both "Rogue One" and the "Andor" series.

O'Reilly is also set to bring Mothma to "Ahsoka," which will be interesting since the show is set after the fall of the Empire, which her character was actively fighting.

O'Reilly had a small role as Officer Wirtz in "The Matrix Reloaded" and "The Matrix Revolutions," as well as appearing in "The Legend of Tarzan" as Alice Clayton, Tarzan's mother.
