Ahsoka

I ’ve never been more convinced thatAhsokaseason 2 is go to admit this one keyStar WarsLegends planet . Ahsokaseason 2is one of only twoupcomingStar WarsTV showscurrently sustain — the other beingAndorseason 2 . Star Wars Celebration 2025 is just around the niche in April , so more annunciation are no doubt impending , but with so little currently in the batting order , plenty of aid has been paid to what this brand - newfangled season ofAhsokacould bring .

TheAhsokaseason 1 endingdropped a number of intimation about what that could be , particularly with Baylan Skoll on the Richard Morris Hunt forthe Mortis Godsand Thrawn head back to the mainStar Warsgalaxy ( with Ezra Bridger in tow unbeknownst to Thrawn ) . Thrawn ’s intention are clearly to bring together the Imperial remnants and do what he can to re - establish the Empire with him at the helm . There ’s one other focus I think Thrawn will have , though , and I conceive that will expect bringing back this critical Legends planet .

Wayland Was Once The Home Of Project Necromancer

This Planet Became Key In Star Wars: The Bad Batch

Wayland was introduced inStar Wars : Heir to the Empire , the first of the Thrawn trilogy of books , compose by Timothy Zahn . Those book became Legendswhen Disney boughtStar Warsand significantly restructured theStar Warscanon , which was a major disappointment to devotee of Thrawn . Thankfully , Thrawn re - entered theStar Warscanon inStar Wars Rebels , and he has since appeared inAhsokaandStar Wars : Tales of the Empire . With him currently positioned as the main baddie forAhsokaseason 2 , I ’m convert this satellite is about to make a homecoming as well .

Purchase Star Wars : inheritor to the Empire

This planet has already appeared once inStar Wars , inStar warfare : The Bad Batch . Mount Tantiss , a mass on the planet Wayland , was the locating of a cloning facility heavily involve inProject Necromancer and Palpatine ’s resurrection programme . This was also where the Empire held Omega twice inThe Bad Batchseason 3 , first to get Nala Se to cooperate and then because they needed her blood . IntheBad Batchseason 3 finale , Mount Tantiss was destroy , but it make so much sense thatAhsokaseason 2 would be the time for Wayland ’s on - screen return .

We ’ve late study about the first official crosstie - in to Star Wars ' Mandalorian movie … and it may have just drop a massive clue to the plot .

With Thrawn’s Return, Wayland Seems Not Only Vital, But Also Inevitable

This Is A Logical Next Step For The Ahsoka Show

Not only because of Thrawn ’s connexion to the planet in Legends but also based on his presumed plan inAhsokaseason 2,Thrawn visiting Wayland is the coherent next footstep in hisStar Warsstory . Mount Tantiss may have been destroy , but Wayland doubtlessly extend to be the localization of countless all-important Imperial secrets . As Thrawn works to convey the regal remnants back together and retain what Palpatine started , this would be the utter locating for him to get go .

As Thrawn works to bring the Imperial end back together and continue what Palpatine started , this would be the perfect location for him to get started .

In fact , I would be thrilled to see Thrawn establish Wayland as his base , as we ’re not presently certain where that will be . Realistically , this major planet may actually be shown on cover even beforeAhsoka season 2 , as Thrawn is primed to be the mainStar Warsvillain in the upcoming movieThe Mandalorian and Grogu . Ahsokaseason 2 ’s release date has n’t yet been confirm , although with filming rumor to start this summer , it ’s likelyAhsokaseason 2 will be released afterThe Mandalorian and Grogu .

Tantiss Would Be The Best Place For Project Necromancer To Start Over

We Could Finally Get Some Long-Awaited Answers

The return of Wayland to theStar Warsscreen could also provide answers to query that have only recently been make in the franchise . Specifically , Palpatine ’s sudden return inStar war : The procession of Skywalkerproved very controversial , in part because it was n’t really explain in that pic beyond Poe Dameron ’s now notorious line,“Somehow , Palpatine returned"and some loose references to cloning . It seemed as thoughThe Bad Batchwas run to give a direct answer , given the cloning undertaking on Tantiss .

When Tantiss blew up at the remnant ofThe Bad Batch , the route to Palpatine ’s Resurrection of Christ became confusing once again , though . Surely , Project Necromancer gets clean back up at some percentage point , as the objective was to successfully make forcefulness - tender clones — something that was all important to play Palpatine back . If Thrawn does go back to Wayland inAhsokaseason 2 and / orThe Mandalorian and Grogu , he can continue this work . It is specially important thatStar Warsdoes this preferably rather than afterward , as Palpatine ’s return remains a major sore point even five years later .

in person , I retrieve this would be a brilliant move forStar Warsto make . Unlike several choicesStar Warshas made in late yr , including the shocking homecoming of Emperor Palpatine , Thrawn is an incredibly pop character , and foster his story with this Legends planet would for certain be a pop conclusion as well . It would also be brilliant to finally get to see this planet in alive - activeness . Although there is still so much we do n’t bonk aboutAhsokaseason 2 , I ’m amply convincedStar Warswill be bring Wayland back in the upcoming time of year of the show .
