The newest spin-off is a deep-cut from the Star Wars lore, and it’s available to watch onlione now. Produced by Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau – whose previous works include the universally acclaimed The Madalorian and Andor – Ahsoka delves deeper into Star Wars lore to focus on the story of Darth Vader’s little-known padawan. (If you’re not familiar with the terminology, a padawan is essentially a work experience kid armed with a lightsaber.).

The new series follows Jedi-outcast Ahsoka Tano (played by Rosario Dawson) as she navigates a galaxy left in turmoil after the The Clone Wars. Ahsoka’s eight-episode run kicked things off with a two-episode premiere on 22 August, available exclusively in the UK on streaming service Disney+.

Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch Star Wars: Ahsoka online. Read more:. Episode one and two of Ahsoka debuted on Disney+ on 22 August at 9pm ET, or 2am on 23 August UK time. The remaining six episodes will be available to stream online weekly at the same time on Tuesday nights / Wednesday mornings.
Ahsoka will stream weekly until the final episode airs on 3 October. Disney owns the rights to Star Wars, so it’s no surprise that the big mouse’s own streaming service is the only place to watch Ahsoka. From 1 November, you’ll be able to subscribe to a version of Disney+ that shows ads for £4.99 per month, though there’s no additional saving to be had when you sign up for a full year this way. The ads will be fairly short compared to regular telly, just a 30-45 second commercial every hour.
