Star Wars: Tales of the Empire: Meredith Salenger on Barriss Offee Reuniting With Ahsoka Tano

The release of Star Wars: Tales of the Empire is almost here, bringing to life an animated miniseries about some of the galaxy’s most formidable antiheroes. This will include Barriss Offee (Meredith Salenger), an Inquisitor who has appeared in a number of Star Wars stories over the years. While speaking to ComicBook about her role on Star Wars: Tales of the Empire, Salenger addressed the possibility of continuing one of Barriss’ most surprising narrative threads — her dynamic with Ahsoka Tano.

“All I’m gonna say is, this was three episodes, so we don’t know what happens,” Salenger explained in our interview, which you can check out above. “I hope things happen, I believe she would like to have a reunion with her to hash things out and, perhaps, apologize, I don’t know. That’s my personal thought but it’s all up to Dave [Filoni] and I would love to see Bariss chatting with Ahsoka again. I think they’d have a lot to talk about. “

Is Star Wars: Ahsoka Renewed For Season 2?

Earlier this year, with the announcement that a new movie surrounding The Mandalorian and Grogu is officially in the works, Lucasfilm also confirmed that a second season of Star Wars: Ahsoka has been greenlit. A release date for the project has yet to be set, although series creator Dave Filoni has already teased work on it.

“I’m absolutely putting it out into the universe. We’re joking about it, but I’m manifesting it because I feel like I helped Dave [Filoni] manifest this role,” series star Rosario Dawson previously shared with Empire Magazine about a second season. “So I’m ready. I’m excited. I’m willing. I got my ice-packs ready to go for Season 2 and beyond! I would not be mad at that.”
