This fan favourite star needs to appear in Ahsoka Season 2

As Ahsoka Season 2 approaches, there is one presence that could reshape everything, both on-screen and in the hearts of fans: Ewan McGregor’s Obi-Wan Kenobi. The galaxy is calling, and some faces are simply too iconic to leave behind, and his return? That would be much more than mere fan service. It's meant to be.

In a collision of memory and myth, Obi-Wan stands as a beacon of what once was and what could have been. With rumors swirling faster than a TIE fighter in a dogfight, one thing feels certain: If Ahsoka is to truly confront both its shadows and stars, Obi-Wan Kenobi's is a presence that matters. And it matters much. But why?

Why Obi-Wan Kenobi matters to Ahsoka’s story

In Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Obi-Wan was more than an indirect mentor to Ahsoka Tano's herself. He was a constant presence, a symbol of the old ways that shaped her early journey. We all know Anakin Skywalker was her direct Master; however, Ahsoka came to learn what being a Jedi truly meant through Obi-Wan’s quiet wisdom, impossible choices, and his deep heartbreak. With him, she also learned what a Jedi could never be.

Obi-Wan's impact on her was quiet but clear: he was a moral compass that stayed even while everything else was fractured, splintered. Ahsoka picked up defiance fromAnakin, but she it was from Obi-Wan that she learned the real meaning of perseverance. It was with him thatshe discovered how to live even when survival looked like a betrayal of what she held true.

Including Obi-Wan into Ahsoka Season 2 would not just acknowledge their linked history, it would create fresh emotional battlegrounds that would lead both Ahsoka and the viewers to confront the bittersweet reality that certain legacies are too strong to run away from.

The Clone Wars reunion fans have been dreaming of

Whispers across the galaxy suggest that Ewan McGregor might step into the role once again, this time through flashbacks set during the height of the Clone Wars. Picture this, in flesh and blood, not animation: Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, and Obi-Wan Kenobi, together once more.

This is a vision powerful enough to make hyperspace tremble.

Seeing these characters share the screen again would deepen the tragic weight of Ahsoka's story. The young Ahsoka, so full of hope when Anakin was still a hero and brother. And Obi-Wan? The one carryin burdens no one else could see. A moment in time when everything still seemed possible. Before betrayal, exile, before everything shattered and fell apart.

It would be more than a reunion of masters and apprentices, this would be a reckoning.

More than nostalgia, a necessary chapter

Obi-Wan's presence in Ahsoka Season 2 would be about facing the past, not reliving it. For Ahsoka, he is a reflection of decisions taken and futures lost. Obi-Wan remained behind attempting to preserve a system already damaged and on the verge of collapse while she left the Jedi Order in quest of truth. While their paths diverged, their pain ran parallel.

In the wilderness of the Unknown Regions, as Ahsoka faces a future filled with uncertainty, the memory of Obi-Wan could offer her both clarity and agony. With him being the embodiment of the Jedi that failed to save what mattered most and, at the same time, the embodiment of the hope that, even in failure, goodness lives on. It could look at grief as a transforming rather than a weakening force. It might convert sadness into power and memory into a weapon.

Star Wars teaches us that the past is always present: It survives in the decisions we make when no one is watching.

Will Ewan McGregor return?

Official confirmation remains elusive, as if hidden in the fog of the Force. Lucasfilm has yet to announce anything concrete; however, behind the scenes, there are signs. Ewan McGregor has never hidden his love for the character, and recent insider reports suggest that the possibility is very much alive.

And why would it not be?

Few actors have left as profound a mark on the galaxy far, far away as McGregor. His Obi-Wan was the heart of the prequels, carrying the weight of betrayal, love, and impossible duty. Bringing him back now, even if in flashbacks, would be a reminder for us of what the Jedi once stood for, and why their fall still matters.

It would not just be a moment of applause. It would be a moment of meaning.

The galaxy needs Obi-Wan Kenobi one more time

In a story about finding your place in a broken universe, Obi-Wan’s presence could give Ahsoka something she has long been denied: a sense of continuity. An opportunity to bid farewell. A chance to forgive and go on, while remembering what came before.

For us, it would be a reminder that even in a universe plagued with conflict, treachery, and horror, there are still voices deserving of attention, legends deserving of respect,and lights worth tracking back home.

Once, Obi-Wan Kenobi told Luke Skywalker that a Jedi's strength comes from the Force, which is all around us, connecting the deceased and the living.

If Ahsoka Season 2 truly wants to live up to its potential, it must listen to this call.

And it must answer with the voice of none other than Obi-Wan Kenobi.
