Actor Ray Stevenson is joining the action in a galaxy far, far away! He’s going to play a villain character in the ”Ashoka” Star Wars series on Disney+.
No official word yet on who he is playing, but it has been confirmed to be someone else instead of the highly anticipated Admiral Thrawn.
The series centers on fan-favorite character Ahsoka Tano, a Jedi Knight survivor popular on the animation side of Star Wars who made her live-action debut in the second season of The Mandalorian and appeared in an episode of The Book of Boba Fett.
