New Star Wars merchandise has potentially revealed a significant cameo from the Star Wars Rebels animated series in Lucasfilm’s Ahsoka series on Disney+. The Rosario Dawson-led series appears to be a live-action spin-off of the animated series as characters from it are confirmed to appear.

An upcoming LEGO set of the Ghost – based on the Ahsoka series – has revealed a significant cameo before the Disney+ series debut. The set’s mini-figures have given fans a glimpse of what to expect.

Hera Syndulla, Jacen, And Other Figures:

The LEGO set #75357’s description reveals five figures: Hera Syndulla, Chopper, Quarrie (a Mon Calamari mechanic from Rebels), an unknown male character with dark skin, and Hera’s son, Jacen. Jacen Syndulla is the son of Star Wars Rebels’ Twi’lek pilot Hera Syndulla and late Jedi Knight Kanan Jarrus.

Jacen’s Live-Action Debut:

Since The Mandalorian takes place nine years after A New Hope, and Star Wars Rebels occurred before the original trilogy, Jacen Syndulla is still growing up during the time of Ahsoka. However, as Ahsoka is reportedly a non-linear story, it is unclear what age audiences will see Jacen on Disney+. Actress Mary Elizabeth Winstead is expected to play his mother, Hera Syndulla, in the live-action series.

Jacen’s Significance To The Story:

Jacen Syndulla’s presence in the show could be crucial for Star Wars Rebels fans and could be integral to Ezra Bridger’s story. After all, Ezra was trained by Jacen’s father, and if Jacen is strong with the Force, Ezra may do the same for Kanan’s son. If so, that means the Mando-Verse is home to two young Padawans, the other being Grogu.

Fans can expect to learn more about Jacen Syndulla and his role in Ahsoka during Star Wars Celebration, which begins on Friday, April 7.
