New name out there for a potential Ezra live action casting:

He's got the look down. Can't find a whole lot about the guy, but he appears to be interviewed here on Youtube in 2018. He certainly sounds enough like Taylor Gray's take.

Think he'll end up being Loam Redge? They've been hinting at bringing him back for a while, and I think he would be absolutely perfect for the role.

Have they? Isn't he just a quest-giving NPC from Star Wars Galaxies? Either way, the show takes place in the High Republic era, so the character likely wouldn't even be alive to include unless they're just lifting the name for some reason.

I still think Ahsoka would have made more sense as an animated series but the casting seems decent so far at least

The new GoT, Marvel and LOTR shows this month have all been good against all odds so here's hoping.

Also Star Trek; Lower Decks is on now and is great, Strange New Worlds was recent and very good.

Its apparently the leakiest show in disneyplus' existence so you can read apparent summaries of the first 3 episodes by googling around (the main leaker got cease and desisted). It sounds pretty cool.

Speaking of shows, reminder that Bad Batch returns on the 28th

Ok so she's a Australian daughter of a Chinese mother and an Italian father with a Russian first name and a Taekwondo blackbelt and some pretty good acting credits.

She seems awesome. I can't wait for nerds to get confused about why they're mad at this particular Female Star Wars Character.

My only hope is that we don't get, "And Ezra learned that the real rebellion was learning to overcome his distaste for working with comprador alien space fascists all along!" Rehabillitating noted genocidaire Kallus was bad enough.

The Jan 3rd date was apparently found in D+ metadata so it's likely true. Pretty weird.
