In anticipation of Thrawn’s imminent return in Ahsoka, we dive into the literary and on screen history of the character and what makes him so compelling to Star Wars fans.

 

In this fully armed and operational episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss:

• Thrawn’s introduction in Timothy Zahn’s Star Wars: Heir to the Empire novel,
• Thrawn’s powers of deductive reasoning and habit of studying art,
• How Dave Filoni brought Thrawn into the current canon in Star Wars: Rebels,
• The new novels written by Zahn about Thrawn’s history in the Chiss Ascendancy and another trilogy set around the events of Rebels and Rogue One, and
• Whether Thrawn is a villain or an anti-hero.
