The upcoming Season 2 of Ahsoka has officially confirmed the return of four prominent antagonists to the Star Wars universe, with significant roles planned for them. When Ahsoka premiered in 2023 with its first season, it introduced three fresh villains to the Star Wars saga, including Ray Stevenson as Baylan Skoll, Ivanna Sakhno as Shin Hati, and Paul Darnell as Marrok. Characters like Morgan Elsbeth, played by Diana Lee Inosanto, were also present throughout the season; however, they were ultimately defeated and will not be reappearing in Season 2.
right now, Ahsoka Season 2 is being made under the supervision of Dave Filoni, who played a significant role as its creator and scriptwriter for each episode in Season 1. We anticipate that this new season will become available on Disney+ around 2026.
In the forthcoming Star Wars series on Disney+, it’s anticipated that the storyline will resume immediately following the end of Season 1, where Ahsoka and Sabine found themselves stranded in a previously uncharted galaxy within the Star Wars cosmos.
Every Main Villain Confirmed to Appear in Ahsoka Season 2
Baylan Skoll
Ray Stevenson’s character, Baylan Skoll, first appeared in Season 1 of Ahsoka. Tragically, Stevenson passed away before the series premiered on Disney+. However, his role as Baylan Skoll will continue to be remembered, as the character has been recast.
Actor Rory McCann, known from Game of Thrones, is set to take on the character Baylan Skoll in Season 2 of Ahsoka. Filming has started, and official images showing him dressed for the part have already been released.
In Season 2, Baylan’s part has yet to be revealed, however, at the close of Season 1, he was depicted standing on a statue of the deity known as the Father – one of the divine entities from the realm of Mortis.
According to visual cues and details provided by Dave Filoni, it appears that the deities of Mortis may play a role in Season 2. Several fans speculate that Baylan might be summoned by these gods, which could explain why he abandoned his apprentice at the end of Season 1.
It has been proposed that Season 2 might officially introduce Abeloth into the Star Wars universe as the primary antagonist in Ahsoka Season 2.
Shin Hati
In the second season of “Ahsoka,” we can expect Ivanna Sakhno’s character, Shin Hati, to make another appearance as a villain, much like Baylan Skoll who debuted in the first season.
For almost the entire season 1, Shin served as Baylan Skoll’s trainee. But in the finale, Baylan effectively departed from Shin to seek a superior force that was beckoning him.
Due to Thrawn’s vessel, the Chimaera, departing from Peridea while Shin remained, she found herself stuck on the planet in a similar predicament as Ahsoka and Sabine.
Towards the culmination of Season 1, Shin was seen alongside a band of local marauders, hinting at her potential transformation into a warlord or the chief of their gang come Season 2.
Thrawn
In the first season of “Ahsoka,” the enigmatic Grand Admiral Thrawn, a key character, was introduced to live-action Star Wars. Though he didn’t appear in every episode of Season 1, creator Dave Filoni has hinted that the antagonist from “Star Wars Rebels” will take on a more substantial role in Season 2.
As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled to share that the mastermind behind “Ahsoka” has revealed some intriguing details about Season 2. He mentioned, quite emphatically, that “over half of this season is a massive battle.” Additionally, he hinted that the enigmatic Grand Admiral Thrawn will play a significant role in this epic conflict. Can’t wait to see it unfold!
A significant portion of our Star Wars storyline will revolve around a massive conflict, resembling an intense showdown or fight to the finish. This is not just any skirmish, but a full-scale battle… And since we aim for such intensity, the character Thrawn will play a more prominent role, appearing frequently in the narrative.
At the culmination of Season 1, Thrawn was spotted returning to the Star Wars universe, accompanied by the sorceresses of Dathomir. If Thrawn’s strategies hold true (as they often do), we can expect him and the sorceresses to seek retribution against the New Republic in Season 2.
Anakin Skywalker
As a passionate film buff, I’ve always been captivated by the Star Wars saga, and Anakin Skywalker, who met his on-screen demise in Return of the Jedi back in 1983, continues to haunt the franchise as its central antagonist for decades following.
In the first season of Ahsoka, Hayden Christensen once again embodied both Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader. Although his appearances were limited, mostly within the World Between Worlds (triggering some recollections of the Clone Wars), he significantly influenced Ahsoka’s journey towards becoming a hero by guiding her to crucial milestones.
It’s been verified that Hayden Christensen will reappear in Ahsoka‘s second season. Although he is currently portraying a heroic character, Christensen hinted at a possible return of Darth Vader in the upcoming season. Since Vader was momentarily displayed in The World Between Worlds during Season 1 to serve as an educational experience for Ahsoka, it’s plausible that this could recur in Season 2.
