Ahsoka is the latest Star Wars project from the mind of Dave Filoni, architect of animated shows The Clone Wars and Rebels. The series will feature the first live-action appearance of multiple Rebels characters, including Sabine Wren, played by Natasha Liu Bordizzo. 

Of course, Ahsoka herself has made appearances in both The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett. Does Bordizzo ever get the sense that the Ahsoka TV show is simply a chapter in the wider story of this increasingly crowded sector of the Star Wars timeline? 

"When I heard they were doing the movie, at Celebration in London [in April], I was like, 'Maybe one day I'll find out whether I'm a part of that!'" she laughs. "This is one of those times when I can so happily tell you I have no idea what's going on with that. I'm happy not to, because that way I don't have to lie to you!"
