I think season 2 is going to break a pretty big Force ghost rule, more than it ever has before. In the first season of Ahsoka, the titular apprentice of was reunited with his fallen master from beyond the grave, seeking to finally complete her Jedi training. However, I have a hunch that Force Ghost Anakin will go even further in the upcoming season.

In Ahsoka season 1, Anakin brought Ahsoka into the World Between Worlds, showing her moments from their past in the Clone Wars and helping her reignite her conviction of being a Jedi. At the very end of the season, Anakin's Force ghost was shown on the extragalactic world of Peridea, watching over Ahsoka and her own apprentice Sabine Wren.

During the Ahsoka panel at Star Wars Celebration 2025, it was confirmed that Hayden Christensen is set to return as Anakin Skywalker in Ahsoka season 2. As such, one can assume Anakin's role will be similar to his appearance in the first season. A combination of flashbacks to the Clone Wars and providing guidance to Ahsoka as a Force ghost feels more than likely.

. This is especially true considering the very high likelihood that the narratives taking place on Peridea will pay off the teases to the Mortis gods, the cosmic anchorites in the Force who first debuted in the Clone Wars. When Anakin, Ahsoka, and Obi-Wan Kenobi first encountered these beings representing the Force's aspects, Anakin nearly replaced the Father, tasked with keeping the balance between The Son, who embodied the dark side, and The Daughter, representing the light.

There's a lot about Force ghosts that have been left intentionally ambiguous in the Star Wars canon. . This was implied when Obi-Wan's Force ghost warned Luke that he would not be able to help him if the young Jedi chose to go to Cloud City and confront Darth Vader in The Empire Strikes Back.

That said, we do know that Force ghosts can interact with the physical environment. Yoda's Force ghost caused the tree on Ahch-To to catch fire in The Last Jedi, while Luke's Force ghost caught Rey's lightsaber and later rose his submerged X-Wing from the sea for her to use in The Rise of Skywalker. However

Baylan Skoll was called by some kind of hidden power on Peridea, and his search took him to the statues of the Mortis gods by the end of Ahsoka season 1. As such, it's very possible that Ahsoka and Sabine will contend with the Mortis gods themselves, or even the connected being of entropy from Legends known as Abeloth. If so, I fully expect Anakin to be incredibly involved in Ahsoka season 2, despite being a Force ghost.
