Writer and executive producer Henry Gilroy says that Sabine's 'Ahsoka' arc was something considered—and dismissed—during 'Rebels'.

‘s focus on the relationship between the titular ex-Jedi and her reluctant padawan Sabine was one of the most surprising, and yet paradoxically frustrating aspects of the series. On the one hand, it helpedof the Force, and who could wield it, pushing back on narrow-sighted Jedi doctrines of the prequel era to give us a Force-wielding character with more parallels to Luke’s journey with the Force across the original trilogy.

On the other, for as much as some of those Jedi doctrines were pushed back on in making Sabine Force sensitive, at the end of the day,turned master and apprentice into pretty much the same kind of Jedi we already had, with the same kind of teaching methods and understandings—teaching methods we’ve spent the prequel era“It was absolutely not the plan… we really felt that not only did it step on Ezra’s story… it was a weak retread, we already did this,” reflected Henry Gilroy, a senior writer and executive producer on, but ultimately dismissed by the writing team. “The idea of Sabine training as a Jedi when she is already this fantastic warrior of her own type, we felt like, ‘This is overkill.'”, the ancient Mandalorian lightsaber that became a mythical symbol of the right to rule Mandalore—attempting to reconcile her own trauma relating to the work she did in the process, work that ultimately allowed the Empire to oppress her people as a student at its military academies. But although she trains to wield the weapon, she ultimatelyseries, so I was shocked,” Gilroy continued. “What I love about the story with the Darksaber is that you don’t have to be a Jedi to have Jedi ideals… I think that’s what’s really the more important thing, rather than Force pushing Ezra a hundred feet when she’s never used the Force before.”has by and large struggled to grapple with in recent years, especially as storytelling within the galaxy far, far away slowly moves further into the post-originals, post-sequels era: the separation of what it means to be a Jedi from a philosophical and moral standpoint, and what it means to be a Jedi in taking on the mantle as a follower of the Jedi Order as an institution.on the profound failures and flaws that allowed it to be subsumed by Palpatine’s machinations: a legacy of institutional rot and dogmatic busybodying that blinded the light of the Jedi’s most profound beliefs as a force for good. But at the same time, we have seen—and the broader franchise itself wrestle with attempting to revive the Jedi and either seeing them making the same mistakes or not being willing enough yet to make the distinction between Jedi ideals and Jedi Order doctrine and make that separation.will see Ahsoka and Sabine closely bonded once more, and the potential for that discussion between them to arise.
