Mind-Blowing Star Wars Revelation: Ahsoka's Unexpected Episode 7 Cameo Shatters Records!

Highlights

Ahsoka Episode 7 delivers on fan expectations with the return of Ezra Bridger and an unexpected cameo from C-3PO, setting a new record for actor Anthony Daniels.

Despite serving as a source of comic relief, C-3PO has successfully made appearances in all the mainline Star Wars films as well as numerous spinoffs, illustrating his unwavering popularity. In the most recent episode, C-3PO assists General Hera Syndulla, effectively broadening the interconnectedness of the Star Wars universe and teasing the possibility of additional storylines in upcoming episodes.

The following contains spoilers for Ahsoka Episode 7. Star Wars without cameos from legacy characters is like macaroni without cheese. While still delicious, something will always feel missing. Ahsoka on Disney Plus, however, doesn't have that problem. In fact, it just added some particularly well-aged cheddar to its mix.

In Ahsoka episode 7, fans had plenty of reasons to celebrate. Firstly, it marked the long-awaited return of Ezra Bridger, who had disappeared five years ago in Star Wars Rebels. Eman Esfandi, known for his role in King Richard, portrayed Ezra as he showcased his new Force-centric combat style alongside his old friend Sabine, played by Natasha Liu Bordizzo. But the surprises didn't end there. Despite being somewhat expected, another significant moment occurred, catching many fans off-guard.

The much-anticipated episode saw a delightful surprise cameo from none other than the beloved C-3PO, the protocol droid constantly on edge. Once again, the iconic character was portrayed by Anthony Daniels, who has been lending his voice to C-3PO since the very first Star Wars film, A New Hope, in 1977. However, The Direct pointed out that this appearance in Ahsoka marks a significant milestone for both Daniels and the droid. With this cameo, Daniels has now portrayed C-3PO in live-action a remarkable 12 times, surpassing all other Star Wars actors.

Star Wars has a history of special appearances and celebrity cameos, making it a big deal. Almost every actor from the original Star Wars trilogy has returned to their roles in some capacity over the years. However, C-3PO, despite often being the comic relief, has managed to make an appearance in every mainline Star Wars film and many spinoffs. This is impressive considering that C-3PO's initial intentions would have changed the entire story.

In the latest Star Wars installment, C-3PO is sent by Senator Leia Organa, who is off-screen, to assist General Hera Syndulla. General Hera is facing potential consequences for going against orders to help Ahsoka. Although this may be confusing to those unfamiliar with Star Wars, it is a significant scene. It is thanks to Hera and her fellow pilots that Ahsoka and Sabine are able to reach the galaxy where Ezra disappeared to.

The season is coming to a close, leaving viewers eager for what lies ahead in Ahsoka's story. It seems highly probable that there will be more episodes following the conclusion of this batch, offering further opportunities for exciting cameos. And what better character to grace the screen once again than the iconic and lovable gold figure? Save the date for the season finale of Ahsoka, which will be available on Disney Plus on October 3, 2023.
