No, that was Ray Stevenson. He's in press release where the trailer is posted.

I think they've only appeared in a video game, so this canonicity is probably dubious.
On a related note, Ahsoka wields white lightsabers (made from purified kyber crystals) because it represents her detachment from ideology and status as sort of ronin Jedi.

It was actually never officially announced by Disney. August 31 never seemed correct anyway because it is a Thursday.

I haven’t watched a single star wars show (I know I need to watch Andor) but am totally on board for this because of Rosario Dawson and Grand Admiral Thrawn. Who is the old guy using the force? Is that C’baoth from the Zayn novels ?

You've watched the animated series Rebels, though? Because this is basically a sequel of that.

My interest in this is like 90% Rosario Dawson based. The other 10% is a passing interest in how Thrawn is portrayed having enjoyed those books when i was a kid. If it wasn’t for Dawson though I’d probably check out a Thrawn scene on youtube when i thought of it 6 months or so after airing.
Is the old man from Rebels?

You mean the guy played by the late Ray Stevenson, right? No I think he's a character new to this series.

Of all the Star Wars TV projects, Rebels is the one with the biggest difference between startup and finish. It was kinda juvenile in the beginning but we kept going and when they started digging into the lore, it went from sublight to hyperspeed real quick.

I'll likely never be confident in a Lucasfilm project based on trailers/promotion for a long time - but this looks pretty good. It needs to stick the landing and continue the rebuilding of this franchise that Andor started. Will be giving Rebels a try as well.
