While continuing to promote her new line of ladies Star Wars clothing for the Her Universe clothing line, Ashley Eckstein briefly touched on Season 3 of The Clone Wars with Newsarama:


"While careful to avoid spilling any Season Three spoilers, Eckstein did hint that dark times could be ahead for Ahsoka.

“There is something with Ahsoka in Season 3 that unfortunately I’m not allowed to say reveal yet. But it definitely goes along with the theme that she definitely grows up and matures a lot more,” Eckstein said. “They’re giving her more responsibility in Season Three. And there’s going to be some connections to the old saga as well.”

“She’s becoming more and more like Anakin, which could be good or bad. We’ll see.”

Eckstein is proud that in three years, Ahsoka has morphed from annoying sidekick to a character that has helped introduce new fans to the Star Wars mythos.

That includes her husband, San Diego Padres infielder David Eckstein.

“I caught him the other day quoting Yoda,” she said laughing. “I said ‘I heard that! If you are quoting Yoda, you are definitely a fanboy!’ We’re becoming much bigger fans together.”


An extended version of the Season 3 trailer has been showing up on YouTube from Star Wars Weekends, and when we find a clean version, we'll be sure to get it posted.
