Disney is completely changing when it plans to air Ahsoka. But it’s actually good news because, according to Collider, the new Star Wars limited series developed by Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni will now be airing at a more convenient time. New episodes of the series are scheduled to air at 6 PM PT beginning August 22.
New episodes of Ahsoka will be released on Tuesdays—not the previously planned Wednesday schedule—at 6 PM PT, starting August 22.
Less than a week before Ahsoka‘s highly anticipated premiere on Disney+, the House of Mouse announced that their newest Star Wars series has been rescheduled. New episodes of the show following Ahsoka Tano, a former Jedi Knight, will be released on Tuesdays—not the previously planned Wednesday schedule—at 6 PM PT.
This scheduling shift not only promises a more synchronized viewing experience for fans but also aims to foster increased engagement and communal discussion surrounding the show.
The decision to adjust the release schedule for Ahsoka stems from a desire to bring fans together and enable them to enjoy the latest adventures of their favorite characters all at once.

Previous Star Wars productions, including the popular titles Obi-Wan Kenobi and The Book of Boba Fett, were released in the middle of the night in various time zones, leading audiences to catch up when they had the time without much pressure to watch the series as it aired. This fragmented viewing pattern sometimes hindered the formation of real-time conversations and discussions.
By moving the premiere of Ahsoka to a more accessible time slot, Disney+ hopes to capture a broader audience and encourage fans to engage with the show in real time. This synchronicity is expected to foster a sense of unity among fans, who can now share their reactions, theories, and insights on social media platforms during the actual airing of the episodes without the fear of spoiling the show.

The strategy aims to create a communal viewing experience akin to watching a live event and similar to the programming of the golden age of television, where fans can collectively celebrate and dissect the unfolding storyline.
Ahsoka, played by Rosario Dawson, embarks on a captivating journey in the new series as she searches for the enigmatic Grand Admiral Thrawn, portrayed by Lars Mikkelsen. The plot revolves around Ahsoka’s quest to prevent Thrawn from orchestrating the resurgence of the Empire. Beyond her duty, Ahsoka is driven by a personal connection to Thrawn, as his survival hints at the possibility of Ezra Bridger’s (played by Eman Esfandi) existence.
However, Ahsoka’s pursuit of Thrawn is not a solitary endeavor. The show promises an exciting Rebels reunion, as beloved characters from the animated series are set to make their live-action debuts.

Sabine Wren, portrayed by Natasha Liu Bordizzo, joins Ahsoka’s mission with the hope of locating Ezra and reuniting with her lost comrade. The stakes are undeniably high as Ahsoka confronts Thrawn, one of the Empire’s most formidable military leaders, and the outcome will undoubtedly shape the fate of the galaxy.
In a time when digital media has the power to bring together global audiences, Disney+’s decision to experiment with release schedules reflects the evolving landscape of television consumption.
Ahsoka’s new premiere strategy may serve as a blueprint for future releases, reshaping how fans interact with their favorite shows and characters. Regardless of the outcome, one thing is clear: the Force is strong with this innovative approach, and Star Wars fans around the world are eagerly counting down the moments until Ahsoka’s latest adventures grace their screens.
