Filoni thought it would be neat if Shand encountered bounty hunter Cad Bane. He asked Ming-Na Wen if she would want to reprise her role as Fennic Shand in The Bad Batch and she said she would love it.
DAVID PRODUCTION STAR WARS SERIES
Filoni served as an executive producer of the animated series Star Wars: The Bad Batch. He told Lucasfilm's publishing division that they should show people unaware of The Clone Wars and Rebels how popular the character is. įiloni wanted to see if Tano worked outside of animation, leading to the creation of the Ahsoka novel. Filoni set up a further story involving Wren and Ahsoka Tano for the end of the series. He named the character Gooti Terez after Andi Gutierrez, the digital communications manager for, host of Rebels Recon, and co-host of The Star Wars Show. He also wanted her to be a character that kids could get attached to. Filoni wanted Sabine Wren to be more colorful than other Star Wars characters, which was shown by her constantly dying her hair. He voiced Chopper in the series, a role which was not revealed until the series finale. The Star Wars Rebels animated series was created by Filoni, Simon Kinberg, and Carrie Beck, with Filoni serving as one of the executive producers, writers, and directors. They wanted to show young people that they can take a predetermined path or use the information to make their own choice. When Filoni and the crew were writing the story about Tano leaving the Jedi Order, they made it about her being pulled in different directions and becoming frustrated. In his defense, he said that they still included the Expanded Universe elements when they could. During San Diego Comic Con 2014, Filoni admitted that he knew about contradicting the Expanded Universe by establishing The Clone Wars as canon. įiloni made an appearance at Celebration IV on Sunday, with producer Catherine Winder in the Celebration Theater (Room 408AB), to discuss the beginnings of the new television series and reveal how The Clone Wars was being created. Lucas pointed out that the Mandalorians are currently pacifists, but he and Filoni agreed that cultures are capable of change. When the Mandalorians were being developed for The Clone Wars, Filoni and Lucas looked at Mandalore in the Expanded Universe and decided to keep the broad strokes of their history. He figured that if Tano was an important part of Skywalker's story, she would have been included in the films. Filoni did not want Tano to be another factor that pushed Skywalker to the dark side. Ahsoka Tano's voice actor, Ashley Eckstein, often asked Filoni how her character's story would end, and he gave several different answers over the years. Lucas gave her the name Ahsoka, and she was one of the first characters that Filoni drew when he was working at Lucasfilm. Filoni played with the idea of her being the same character as the Togruta youngling in Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones, but he realized the ages would not work. Īs of 2005, the character was named Ashla, a reference to an early name for the light side of the Force when Lucas was developing Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. Filoni and Lucas decided that including a Padawan was important, and Lucas wanted her to be Anakin Skywalker's Padawan. She would try to prevent criminals from taking advantage of the war. During the show's early development, the character who became the Jedi Ahsoka Tano was very involved in the black market and worked with Jedi without getting involved in the Clone Wars. Lucas taught Filoni the language of cinema, editing, and ways to tell a story. Many of the tools Filoni and Lucas developed were used to feed future live-action projects that Lucas wanted to do. They developed the Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series together, with Filoni working as supervising director. He went to the same high school as future Fennec Shand actress Ming-Na Wen.
He grew up with Star Wars and read the Legends novels and books, including Heir to the Empire by Timothy Zahn. " When Revenge of the Sith was over, I found myself in the incredible position of carrying the torch forward." ―Dave Filoni ĭave Filoni was born on J in Mt.
