And it looks like she will not be alone in her search. With Bordizzo set to appear as Sabine Wren, the show will unite the two friends. Originally voiced by Tiya Sircaris in Star Wars: Rebels, Sabine is a young Mandalorian warrior, Imperial Academy dropout, and former bounty hunter.

Sabine was last seen during the series finale of Star Wars: Rebels. Following a climactic battle with the Empire, the young Jedi Ezra Bridger disappeared whilst saving his crew. Shortly thereafter, Wren and Ahsoka launched a search for their missing friend. When Dawson debuted as Ahsoka during season two of The Mandalorian in search of Grand Admiral Thrawn, many fans theorized this search would soon make its way to the live-action medium.

Bordizzo made her debut in Netflix’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny. She has also appeared in the streamers The Society and the 2019 film Crazy About You.
