Adding to the roster of antagonists, the show has confirmed the return of Lars Mikkelson as Grand iral Thrawn, who was first introduced to many viewers in the animated series “Star Wars Rebels”. Mikkelson has revealed that, while the character is based on the same source material, he aims to bring something new to his portrayal of Thrawn in “Ahsoka”.
