Star Wars' Original Ahsoka Plan Hints At The Very Origin Of The Force

Lucasfilm CCO Dave Filoni believes Ahsoka Tano's light side of the Force connection is stronger than Star Wars suggests. After missing the prequels, Ahsoka became Anakin's Padawan in The Clone Wars.

A late rise to fame in the Clone Wars series made Ahsoka even more important in the Star Wars timeline, and her importance is growing.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Rebels, The Mandalorian, Boba Fett, and her own show feature Ahsoka. In Star Wars' World Between Worlds, Ahsoka trained with her former master after leaving the Jedi Order. 

━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Due to her distant past, Jedi Ahsoka the White may become the Force's light. Ahsoka almost appeared before the Clone Wars, proving her Ashla connection. 

━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Ashla, a Togruta girl from Episode II: Attack of the Clones, was Ahsoka to Dave Filoni. In Vanity Fair, Dave Filoni explained.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━

We named her Ashla. It worked for me in 2005 on many levels. I think Yoda named a young Jedi trainee in AoC. Girl from Togruta. Ahsoka was considered, but she was too young. She was too young in film.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Filoni did not rename her Ahsoka due to age. Clone Wars begin months after Attack of the Clones. Movie Ahsoka became Anakin's Padawan at 14. Ashla isn't. This proves Ahsoka and Ashla were always linked.
