Rory McCann fait ses débuts sous le nom de Baylan Skoll à Ahsoka lors de la célébration de Star Wars

Auteur:Kristen Mise à jour:May 27,2025

La célébration de Star Wars a dévoilé notre premier aperçu de Rory McCann entrant dans le rôle de Baylan Skoll pour la saison 2 d'Ahsoka. Cela suit le décès tragique de Ray Stevenson, qui a initialement dépeint le personnage et a été célébré pour ses performances dans Thor, RRR, Punisher: War Zone, Rome et d'autres œuvres notables. La mort soudaine de Stevenson en raison d'une brève maladie s'est produite trois mois seulement avant la première d'Ahsoka, laissant un vide significatif dans la série.

Bien que nous n'ayons pas encore vu Rory McCann en action, le panel Ahsoka de Star Wars Celebration a fourni une image exclusive de premier look, que vous pouvez voir ci-dessous.

Le créateur de la série Ahsoka, Dave Filoni, a exprimé le profond défi de perdre Ray Stevenson, le décrivant comme "la plus belle personne à l'écran et hors". Malgré cette défaite, Filoni et l'équipe avancent avec la saison 2, promettant le retour de Hayden Christensen en tant qu'Anakin Skywalker, aux côtés des favoris des fans comme l'amiral Ackbar, Zeb, Chopper et d'autres.

Dans notre revue de la saison inaugurale d'Ahsoka, nous avons noté que la série a initialement affronté l'introduction de personnages et de concepts des émissions animées de Star Wars de Dave Filoni. Cependant, une fois que le récit a trouvé sa place, Ahsoka a livré un mélange convaincant de traditions riches, d'humour et de batailles épiques, faisant écho à l'essence des Star Wars classiques tout en se créant un nouveau chemin narratif.

Les rumeurs sur Switch 2 suggèrent un "été de Switch 2" l'année prochaine

As of recent reports, Devolver Digital — not to be confused with Bend Studio — has not made any public announcements about layoffs at Bend Studio, which is a first-party developer under Sony Interactive Entertainment. However, there have been longstanding rumors and industry speculation regarding Bend Studio’s future, particularly after the release of Days Gone in 2019.
Here’s what’s known:

Days Gone, developed by Bend Studio, received mixed to positive reviews but underperformed commercially, which led to internal restructuring at Sony.
In 2020, Sony confirmed that Bend Studio was transitioning from Days Gone to a new, unannounced project — a move that was framed as a strategic shift rather than a cancellation of future work.
There were unconfirmed reports and rumors in 2021 and 2022 suggesting that Bend Studio had reduced staff, potentially due to shifting priorities or a focus on a new internal project. These rumors were never officially confirmed by Sony or Bend Studio.
In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down.

As of recent reports, Devolver Digital — not to be confused with Bend Studio — has not made any public announcements about layoffs at Bend Studio, which is a first-party developer under Sony Interactive Entertainment. However, there have been longstanding rumors and industry speculation regarding Bend Studio’s future, particularly after the release of Days Gone in 2019. Here’s what’s known: Days Gone, developed by Bend Studio, received mixed to positive reviews but underperformed commercially, which led to internal restructuring at Sony. In 2020, Sony confirmed that Bend Studio was transitioning from Days Gone to a new, unannounced project — a move that was framed as a strategic shift rather than a cancellation of future work. There were unconfirmed reports and rumors in 2021 and 2022 suggesting that Bend Studio had reduced staff, potentially due to shifting priorities or a focus on a new internal project. These rumors were never officially confirmed by Sony or Bend Studio. In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down. So, to clarify: No official job cuts at Bend Studio were confirmed by Sony or the studio itself. The term "cuts" may be a misinterpretation or exaggeration of internal restructuring or staff reallocation. The studio is still active and reportedly working on a new, undisclosed project — potentially a fresh IP, not a sequel to Days Gone. In short: There is no verified evidence of layoffs at Bend Studio. The studio is in a transition phase, focusing on a new, unknown project — common in the industry after a major title release. Bend Studio remains operational and part of Sony’s first-party development network.
