Fans are wondering who the Young Ahsoka actress is. During episode 5 of the Ahsoka Disney Plus TV series, we see events from The Clone Wars in which a young version of Ahsoka is training under Anakin Skywalker. As his padowan, Ahsoka is trying to learn to be a Jedi, though the notion of war seems overwhelming for her.
Who plays Young Ahsoka in the Disney Plus TV series?
Young Ahsoka is played by Ariana Greenblatt.
During the flashback sequences, the younger version of Ahsoka is portrayed by Ariana Greenblatt. The torch is briefly passed to her from the older Ahsoka actress, Rosario Dawson.
It’s possible that Young Ahsoka will be seen again during the final three episodes. With the Ahsoka show leaning a lot on nostalgia and bringing events from The Clone Wars and Rebels to life in live-action, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Ariana Greenblatt reprising the role in episode 6, 7, and/or 8.
What other movies and TV shows is Ariana Greenblatt in?
Ariana Greenblatt also stars in Barbie, 65, The Boss Baby: Family Business (Voice), Awake, In the Heights, Love and Monsters, The One and Only Ivan, Scoob! (Voice), and A Bad Moms Christmas.
Interestingly, Greenblatt also plays the role of Young Gamora in Avengers: Infinity War. She is seen multiple times throughout that movie. This is interesting because the Marvel and Star Wars properties are both owned by Disney.
Originally, Greenblatt made a name for herself as Daphne in the Disney Channel series Stuck in the Middle.
Greenblatt is set to appear in the upcoming Borderlands movie as Tiny TIna, an unpredictable and zany teenager with a passion for exploding things.
