When Ahsoka Season 1 ended, the eponymous character and Sabine were left stranded on Peridea along with master-and-apprentice duo Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati (Sakhno). Skoll, who will be played by Rory McCann in Season 2, replacing the late Ray Stevenson, was there to explore some mysterious, ancient Force mysteries. He was last seen among massive statues of the Mortis Gods (the Father, the Son, and the Daughter), characters first introduced in Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series as physical manifestations of the Force.
Now, according to Filoni, the Mortis Gods will play a major role in Ashoka’s coming season. “It’s definitely a thing,” the showrunner said in an interview with Empire. He, however, didn’t confirm whether any of the Mortis Gods would appear as live-action characters, but teased that their presence would essentially test Ahsoka’s beliefs and, at the same time, answer longtime fans’ prayers.

“What we’re dealing with is: are you going to believe in this, or not? And what is the danger if it’s real? And how are you going to prioritize your goals here? What would a Jedi do, versus what would a regular person do? Those things come up through the course of the season.”

Four ships, four completely different reasons to be up there at all.

back.

Star Wars · Original Trilogy · Since 1977
Millennium Falcon
You belong on the fastest piece of junk in the galaxy, with a
crew that took the job for the payday and then quietly stopped caring about the payday.
Nothing on the Falcon has ever gone according to plan, and everybody aboard prefers it that
way.
You improvise better than you prepare, which is why you keep ending up in situations
that a careful person would have avoided.
The Falcon is the only ship on this list that is genuinely funny, and half of that comes
from it breaking at the worst possible moment.
You would pretend the whole thing is transactional right up until somebody you like is
in trouble, and then the pretending stops instantly.
This crew is the reason the rebellion had a chance at all, and not one of them would
ever admit to that out loud.

Star Wars Rebels · Disney XD · 2014 to 2018
The Ghost
You belong with the crew that turned a tiny cell of misfits into
an actual rebellion. The Ghost is a home before it is a ship, and everybody who boards it
arrived with something broken that the rest of them decided to look after.
Found family is the whole engine here, and Rebels earns it by making you watch these
people choose each other over and over again.
You are in it for the cause, but what actually keeps you going is the four people who
would notice immediately if you stopped showing up.
Hera is one of the best captains in the franchise, and the show is smart enough to make
her competence the quiet centre of everything.
This crew pays for its wins, which is exactly what makes the wins land the way they do.

Skeleton Crew · Disney+ · Since 2024
The Skeleton Crew
You belong with the four kids who found a buried ship, launched
it by accident and are now extremely lost in a galaxy that eats people like them. Nobody
here knows what they are doing, and that turns out to be the fun of it.
Your instinct is to open the door that says do not open, and you would do it again
tomorrow.
Skeleton Crew is the closest Star Wars has come to an eighties adventure movie, where
the stakes are real but the wonder never gets sanded off.
You make friends out of whoever is standing next to you when things go wrong, which is a
genuinely useful survival skill.
The pirates in this one are properly frightening, and that is precisely why the kids
being out of their depth works so well.

The Mandalorian · Disney+ · Since 2019
The Razor Crest
You belong in the quietest ship in the galaxy, with one small
passenger and a code you have never explained to anybody. You told yourself this was a job,
and then it stopped being a job somewhere around the second week.
You work alone by preference and by habit, which lasts exactly as long as it takes for
somebody small to need looking after.
The Mandalorian works because almost nothing gets said out loud, and the armour does the
acting that a face usually would.
Your loyalty is narrow and absolute, so there are very few people on your list and
nothing will move you off it.
The Mandalorian and Grogu took all of that to the big screen over Memorial Day 2026, the
first Star Wars film in seven years.

‘Ahsoka’ Season 2 Will Revive The Mortis Gods
The Mortis Gods remain one of Star Wars’ strangest explorations of the Force, with The Clone Wars depicting the Daughter representing the light side, the Son representing the dark, and the Father trying to maintain the balance. Across three episodes of the animated series starting with Season 3, Episode 15, titled “Overlords” and which aired on January 28, 2011, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Ahsoka are caught in a battle for power between the mythological trio. Elaborating on their Ahsoka debut, Filoni noted how challenging it is to translate such a mysterious concept to the screen. He then acknowledged the idea behind the beings’ existence, which, as he teased, will be explored further.
“It’s a challenge, I can tell you. It was so surprising when George [Lucas] created these archetype god characters. What were we examining there in Clone Wars? What was the metaphor? A lot of it is about power, and what you do with power, and how you wield power. For a Jedi, I think it’s a natural story path to get into these questions.”
Ahsoka Season 2 premieres January 20, 2027, on Disney+. Stay tuned to Collider for more information.
