A new panel for Star Wars Celebration Europe 2016 has been revealed by Lucasfilm titled “Ahsoka’s Untold Tales”. A description of the panel says that it will “discuss untold tales of Ahsoka’s past, from her discovery by the Jedi Order as a young child, to her adventures in unproduced episodes of The Clone Wars, to the chapters of her life newly revealed in the Ahsoka novel and more.”
The panel will take place on Friday, July 15th, from 11:00am-12:00pm. This means that the Ahsoka panel will be the first panel of the day.
The panel contributors will be Dave Filoni (Supervising Director on Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars: Rebels), Ashley Eckstein (voice of Ahsoka Tano) and the Lucasfilm Story Group’s Pablo Hidalgo.
Star Wars Celebration Europe 2016 will take place from July 15th-17th at the ExCel Exhibition Centre in London, England.

Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy has confirmed that Original Trilogy character Mon Mothma (seen in the trailer for the upcoming film) will have a “significant role” in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
Quoted in a recent issue of Entertainment Weekly, Kennedy said:
“We actually see quite a bit of her. The Rebel Alliance is in disarray. Pretty panicked. Up against it. And she is trying the best she can to provide the leadership, in amongst a wide variety of Rebel soldiers that have very differing opinions as to what to do.”
Kennedy and EW made it clear that Mothma will have a larger role in Rogue One than she had in her debut Star Wars film, Return of the Jedi (1983). EW have described her as being the “Mother of the Rebellion”.
Rogue One’s Mon Mothma will be played by Irish actress Genevieve O’Reilly. O’Reilly previously portrayed the character for Revenge of the Sith (2005) but her scenes were cut from the final film.
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is scheduled for release on December 16th, 2016.
