Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Dave Filoni’s original plans for Star Wars: The Clone Wars would have had Ashley Eckstein’s Ahsoka Tano sounding very different. Making her debut in 2008’s The Clone Wars animated movie that served as a pilot episode for the show of the same name, Ahsoka was initially introduced as a young Togruta Padawan learner assigned to Anakin Skywalker in the early days of the Clone Wars conflict.

Dave Filoni originally wanted Ahsoka to have an Icelandic accent. And he wanted her to sound like Björk. So I can't do it. I had to learn an Icelandic accent. When I went in to the callback, Dave Filoni stopped me after one line, and he was like, "Can you make it sound a bit more Icelandic?" Eckstein Made The Right Choice With Ahsoka Fans Originally Struggled With Ahsoka's Star Wars Debut Close Yet, had Filoni succeeded in his original plans in having her character sound like Björk, it is possible fans may have never made it beyond their initial hesitations.

However, these initial concerns were quickly swept aside, as both Filoni’s and Eckstein’s respective takes on the character saw her become one of the franchise’s most celebrated characters. Provided with a rich character arc that also deepened insight into the motivations of her reluctant Jedi master, Ahsoka’s newfound popularity became a central component of what made The Clone Wars such an important part of the wider Star Wars franchise.
