There's A Surprising Reason Grand Admiral Thrawn Was Hard For Star Wars To Bring To Live-Action

[هَـ-ђāŵĩ-ـَاوِي]

Ahsoka showrunner Dave Filoni revealed the unique challenge he faced in bringing Grand Admiral Thrawn to life in the live-action Star Wars show. Created by author Timothy Zahn for his Heir to the Empire trilogy of books, now designated as part of the non-canonical Legends continuity, Filoni first reintroduced the brilliant Imperial tactician as a key antagonist in season 3 of the animated Star Wars: Rebels series. Most recently, the popular Star Wars villain made his live-action debut in Ahsoka season 1, played by Lars Mikkelsen, the same actor to voice the character in animated form.
