Based on the trailer for Star Wars' upcoming Ahsoka show, it very much looks as though the live-action series will be a continuation of the Star Wars Rebels animated series. Starring Rosario Dawson in the titular role, Jedi outcast Ahsoka Tano is set to reunite with some old friends and face returning rivals during the New Republic era. As such, it does seem as though her time with the Rebellion will be good knowledge for fans to have ahead of the upcoming Star Wars series.
In Star Wars Rebels, Ahsoka is revealed to have played a key role in the formation of the Rebellion, bringing individual cells together into one cohesive Alliance to face the Empire in earnest. However, there are still gaps in her history such as her absence from the original trilogy of Star Wars movies. That said, a lot of her background can be found in the Star Wars Rebels show. Here are the best episodes of Star Wars Rebels to watch ahead of Ahsoka's release, including episodes covering Sabine Wren's history as well the canon return of Grand Admiral Thrawn.
