One of the most important events to take place in Ahsoka is the return of the Jedi Ezra Bridger.

WARNING: some SPOILERS for Ahsoka. Captain Carson Teva of the New Republic is becoming a fixture of the live-action Star Wars TV series helmed by Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau, having appeared in The Mandalorian, Book of Boba Fett, and now Ahsoka.
