Star Wars Rebels actors heading to FAN EXPO San Francisco
By Meg Dowell
It’s a great time to be a Star Wars Rebels fan — and not just because the Ahsoka series recently brought some fan-favorite characters to live-action for the first time.
FAN EXPO San Francisco recently announced that several of the show’s original actors will be in attendance, which means fans may finally have the chance to meet their favorite heroes (rather, the actors who voiced them) in real life.
Taylor Gray, Vanessa Marshall, and Ashley Eckstein are all joining other Star Wars and pop culture celebrities at the convention next month. It’s a Rebels reunion, and you’re not going to want to miss it.
Gray, the original voice of Ezra Bridger in the animated series, also voiced the character in Star Wars: Forces of Destiny. Ashley Eckstein originally voiced Ahsoka Tano in Star Wars: The Clone Wars and reprised the role in several seasons of Rebels. Vanessa Marshall was the original voice of Hera Syndulla in the animated series.
FAN EXPO San Francisco is different from similar conventions you may have previously attended in that its smaller size offers more opportunities to interact with celebrity guests. Photo and autograph opportunities are plentiful throughout the duration of the convention, so you have more of a chance to, if you want to, meet your heroes. Celebrating comics, sci-fi, horror, anime, gaming and cosplay is for everyone, and it’s what FAN EXPO is all about.
Other Star Wars actors such as Mark Hamill, Ewan McGregor, and Temuera Morrison will also be in attendance at the convention — and those are just the Star Wars celebrities! There’s plenty awaiting you next month.
FAN EXPO San Francisco runs from Friday, November 24 through Sunday, November 26, 2023 at Moscone Center West.
