Agreed - outstanding casting decision. There are a lot of things that frustrate me about the show, but for the most part I’ve found the “bad guys” FAR more interesting and compelling than anything about the “good guys” (and that includes the acting). Thrawn (and his troopers) and Baylan are GREAT.
Also, shoutout to Hayden Christensen for bringing some excellent subtlety to Anakin’s character at this point in the story - if you’re a nerd for this shit, there’s some really cool lightsaber style nuances and subtle callbacks/echoes to plot points and character traits that were mostly established outside of the prequel trilogy itself.
“You may fire when ready”
I’m cross-pollinating for sure, but Thrawn’s has quite the impact
Note: if you are watching but haven’t finished the Ahsoka series, that clip contains spoilers.
I’m still so happy that they got Lars Mikkelsen. He was perfect in Rebels and continues to he perfect in Ahsoka.
