Temuera Morrison will reportedly star as Captain Rex in ‘AHSOKA’.

Temuera Morrison, who famously played Jango Fett (and his clones) in the Star Wars prequel films, and then recently returnef to take over the role of Boba Fett in Boba Fett’s recent appearances on Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Star Wars: The Book of Boba Fett, will return to the Star Wars universe in the upcoming Ahsoka Disney+ series playing the first live action version of Captain Rex, a popular animated character who made his debut in the 2008 Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated film.

Also inside the report, there is a mention of Lucasfilm executives being very impressed by how the series came together, and that it was a big factor in Dave Filoni getting his own Star Wars movie. Said film will act as the culmination of the ongoing plot thread that was started with The Mandalorian and that will continue with Ahsoka and beyond. A second season of the Rosario Dawson-led series will depend on how the first one performs, per reports.

Captain Rex, whose clone designation was CT-7567, was one of the best clone soldiers in the Grand Army of the Republic. He was Anakin Sykwalekr’s “first-in-command,” and he also served alongside Jedi Commander Ashoka Tano. He stood out among the other clones by his buzz cut blonde hair, and the stylized hawk eyes he put on his helmet, as well as some blue markings he put on his armor.
