364. Nelson Lee Returns (Star Wars: Ahsoka)

Actor Nelson Lee made his first appearance on the podcast when he was guest-starring in Stargirl, playing the Dragon King. After that episode was recorded, Lee teased that he was working on something big and that he couldn’t tell a soul. Fast forward to 2023 when the Star Wars series “Ahsoka” premiered on Disney+. Lee’s “big project” was to play Hamato Xiono in the new series. Xiono’s character originated in the Star Wars animated series Resistance.
The big moment in Episode 7 of Ahsoka, is when Lee shares the screen with Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, a two-time veteran of this podcast (Episodes 327 and 343). Paul Sun-Hyung Lee reprised his role as Carson Teva from the Mandalorian series and the mini-series Book of Boba Fett. That scene also features a Star Wars icon, but that story should be told by Nelson himself.
