There have been loads of memorable episodes in this first season of Ahsoka, and it’s all set to come to an end with next week’s finale. Fans of the original Star Wars trilogy got a special treat in the penultimate episode, “Dreams and Madness“, when C-3PO arrived to come to Hera Syndulla’s rescue as she was getting grilled by a New Republic council over her unauthorized help getting Ahsoka and Sabine Wren to Seatos. C-3PO came with the expressed support of Senator Leia Organa, leader of the Defense Council, and it was her authorization that cleared Hera’s name.
So, for C-3PO’s act of heroism, the chatty droid (and original construction of Anakin Skywalker, connecting him to the series further) gets his own character poster. Not only that, but longtime C-3PO actor Anthony Daniels gave his thoughts on returning to the role when he least expected it.

I was so pleased to shine briefly in the iconic Ahsoka – had such a perfect time with the lovely cast and crew on set, in the amazing Volume – and now, so touched by the kind comments from viewers who appreciated 3PO being there for the beloved princess. Thank you. Everyone.
