The new STAR WARS: AHSOKA photo features a mysterious inquisitive character

Here’s a new photo from Lucasfilm’s upcoming film Star Wars: Ahsoka series that features a new mysterious and sinister-looking Inquisitor character.

Inquisitors were introduced Star Wars: Rebels and are Jedi hunters, who are tracking down and killing any surviving Jedi who managed to escape Order 66. They appeared in the video game Jedi: Fallen Order as well as the Obi-Wan Kenobi series, where they made their live-action debut.

The Inquisitors are an elite team of former Jedi who are drawn to the Dark Side for the most part, they were only explored between Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: A New Hope. But now one will appear in the Ahsoka series, set after the events of Return of the Jedi, which is a time when there shouldn’t be any more.

So, it’s interesting to see that at least one survived and wields a double-ended red lightsaber. This is definitely one of Darth Vader’s personal Jedi assassins and it will be interesting to see who is behind the mask.
