Ahsoka Season 1 has come to a close, leaving viewers with a cliffhanger that has us eagerly anticipating what’s to come. The show, which is part of the ever-expanding “Mandoverse” story, has been a hit with fans and critics alike. But what can we expect from the future of Ahsoka and the larger Star Wars universe?
A Second Season on the Horizon?
Rumors of a second season of Ahsoka have been circulating for some time, and it seems that those rumors may be substantiated. According to a report from Deadline, a second season is likely to happen, although it hasn’t been officially confirmed. The report notes that plans and development for a second season are in the works, but that the double-edged sword of the ending WGA strike and the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike have caused delays, regardless of intentions.
A Critical Look at the Show’s Writing
In her review of the season finale, Collider’s Maggie Lovitt praised the show’s excitement, but was critical of what she felt was a weakness in the show’s writing. Lovitt noted that the entire series was penned by Dave Filoni, and suggested that future seasons could benefit from a more diverse range of voices in the writer’s room.
The Future of the “Mandoverse”
Dave Filoni’s “Mandoverse” story, which began with The Mandalorian, has grown to include multiple shows and characters from the Star Wars universe. The sprawling narrative has captured the imaginations of fans and has big plans for its future.
Upcoming Shows and Movies
In addition to a potential second season of Ahsoka, there are several other Star Wars shows and movies in the works. Skeleton Crew, Season 2 of Andor, and the debut of The Acolyte are all on the horizon, and fans are eagerly anticipating the continuation of the “Mandoverse” story.
Conclusion
Ahsoka Season 1 may have come to a close, but the future of the show and the larger Star Wars universe is bright. With a potential second season on the way and a host of other shows and movies in development, there’s never been a better time to be a Star Wars fan.
