6) A Movie Featuring Ahsoka Tano
Is Ahsoka Tano the most widely popular Star Wars character who isn’t from the movies? Probably. The Togruta Jedi – the Padawan of Anakin Skywalker – first appeared in the The Clone Wars TV series and fans have been desperate to see more of her ever since.
The campaign to get her in the movies has only grown in notoriety recently, thanks to Rosario Dawson publicly speaking about how much she’d like to play Ahsoka. Come on Lucasfilm, you have a fanbase who want it and an awesome actress who wants to play her. Get Ahsoka on the big screen already!
The only issue here is that we can’t see the character being given her own standalone outing. For one, previous protagonists have all been humanoid, so having a movie headlined by a woman with head-tentacles could potentially scare away more casual audiences. Plus, dipping back into the time period of the prequel movies could remind fans of things they’d rather forget.
Having said all that, it would be amazing to have Ahsoka Tano at the fore of a film. In the wake of Wonder Woman, the world needs more movies headlined by brave-hearted, badass female heroes, and Ahsoka would fit that bill perfectly.
