A star on the Disney+ series Star Wars: Ahsoka has revealed that she won’t be coming back for the second season of the series.
Star Claudia Black, who plays Mother Klothow, revealed that she wouldn’t be returning to the series for its second season. Speaking to Bleeding Cool in a recent interview, Black revealed that Disney is “structuring things differently,” and noted that she left the show due to a dispute in pay.
Why won’t Claudia Black return for Ahsoka Season 2?
“I’m going to be transparent,” said Black. “They picked up season two, picked me up with it, and then Disney, which is structuring things differently these days, could not pay me what I needed to be paid as a single mother to keep all my responsibilities going at home in Los Angeles, because they were filming in London. It was not something that they could make happen, and therefore, I had to bow out for season two. It was very sad for me.”
In the series, Mother Klothow was one of the Great Mothers, one of three Dathomirian Nightsisters who were allies of Grand Admiral Thrawn. The trio were practitioners of dark magic, and appeared toward the end of the first season of the show.
Ahsoka was written and executive produced by Dave Filoni, best known for his work on fan-favorite Star Wars animated shows The Clone Wars and Rebels. Set within the same timeline as The Mandalorian, Season 1 revolved around the titular Jedi’s quest across the galaxy as she investigates an emerging threat following the fall of the Empire.
The show also stars Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Syndulla, Eman Esfandi as Ezra Bridger, Lars Mikkelsen as Grand Admiral Thrawn, Wes Chatham as Captain Enoch, Diana Lee Inosanto as Morgan Elsbeth, and David Tennant as the voice of Huyang, with Rory McCann replacing the late Ray Stevenson as Baylan Skoll in Season 2.
