Ahsoka fans at Star Wars Celebration were able to get their first official look at Rory McCann (Game of Thrones) as Baylan Skoll for Ahsoka Season 2. The Rosario Dawson-led series, begins “filming in a week,” according to Dawson at Celebration. During the panel for the Disney+ series, McCann’s look was revealed. McCann replaces Ray Stevenson for Season 2, who unfortunately passed away in 2023. Revealed on the big screen, McCann’s Baylan Skoll is seen in two pictures, one with and without his lightsaber. “Baylan is important,” says, Dave Filoni, the chief creative officer of Lucasfilm. “He’s the parallel to Ahsoka, and that’s a parallel that’s got to continue.”
During the panel, Dawson expressed, “I’m just so excited to be with this cast again.” She goes on to explain. “I’m excited to bring on Rory [McCann], and Rory has that incredible balance of intensity, fierceness, love, and passion that Ray [Stevenson] had.” Outside of the antagonist of Baylan Skoll returning, Filoni seemed to be tight-lipped about the circumstances surrounding Ahsoka Season 2, but the return of Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker was also confirmed.
