Go behind the scenes of “Old Friends Not Forgotten” from the final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars with executive producer Dave Filoni and other cast and crew, as they discuss the beginning of the siege of Mandalore!
Welcome to the beginning of the end. In “Old Friends Not Forgotten” (available to stream now on Disney+), Ahsoka and Bo-Katan return to the Republic looking for help from Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi in taking back Mandalore and capturing Maul. But a surprise attack on Coruscant — i.e., the catalyst for the opening sequence of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith and the final act in Darth Sidious’ plan — draws Tano’s friends away. Still, Skywalker, ever loyal to his old Padawan, comes up with a way to have Rex and a new division assist Ahsoka on her mission. “Old Friends Not Forgotten” brings the emotion and the action with set pieces big and small, and proves to be bittersweet — as we know nothing will be the same for these friends ever again.
Dan pointed out five highlights. My fav?
3. “They’re good as new.”
On the Republic cruiser, Anakin presents a gift for Ahsoka: her old lightsabers. He even made some tweaks, as they now glow blue.
