Sasha Banks is shown in the photo below. Her role on the series is mysterious. Some predict that she might be Sabine Wren from Star Wars Rebels. Wren was a Mandalorian and a Resistance fighter who once wielded the Darksaber. Perhaps she wants it back. Others wonder if she could be Doctor Aphra, an archaeologist who worked with Vader in the comics. Or could she be the rumored Ahsoka Tona?

Rumors & Predictions

One of the biggest rumors and cast predictions is that Ahsoka Tano could be in Season 2 with her first live action debut. The rumor is that Rosario Dawson will be playing the role of Ahsoka Tona, Inverse reported. Ahsoka Tona is a Togruta female who was Anakin Skywalker’s Padawan learner and a major character in Star Wars: The Clone Wars. 

Disney+’s account in Germany officially confirmed that Dawson is joining the cast, along with Timothy Olyphant. Some think Olyphant’s role might be connected to Boba Fett, The Direct reported. The rumors are that he might be wearing Boba Fett’s armor, although that is not confirmed.

Fans also know that Temuera Morrison is returning for Season 2. The Hollywood Reporter shared that Morrison is confirmed to be in the series. Although THR shared that he is playing the role of Boba Fett, some fans aren’t so sure if they believe this. Morrison played Jango Fett, Boba Fett’s father, in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones. The Hollywood Reporter shared that sources said he would play Boba Fett in a small role, and that he was the character teased in Episode 5 of Season 1. However, as Heavy reported at the time, some fans said the boots of the mystery figure didn’t match Boba’s leg armor. Some speculated it might have been Cobb Vanth that we saw and not Boba Fett, since the scene took place on Tattoine.

Remember: It is not officially confirmed that Boba Fett really is going to be in Season 2, even if Morrison is going to make an appearance. And listings on IMDb like the one below indicating Fett will be in the series were likely just added by hopeful fans.

As for Dawson, when Variety asked her if she was playing Ahsoka Tano, she said: “That’s not confirmed yet but when that happens, I will be very happy… I’m very excited for that to be confirmed at some point.”

Ashley Eckstein, who voiced Ahsoka Tano, said that she wasn’t involved in The Mandalorian and didn’t know if the character was returning, EW reported.

Meanwhile on Reddit, fans are having a poll about whether or not Baby Yoda will say his first word this season. Most fans are voting for “Talk he will not.” What do you think?

Another major prediction is that the Darksaber’s history will be explored through the story of Sabine Wren, the last known to wield it. She was a Mandalorian and it’s not clear how she lost the Darksaber and why Moff Gideon has it.
