Eman Esfandi (@emanesfandi) on Instagram (post): "THE RUMORS ARE TRUE… I am Ezra Bridger. 😏. Thank you to everyone that worked on @ahsokaofficial for welcoming me with open arms into your beautiful @starwars family. ❤️🔥 Growing up I wished for friends who loved what I loved (anime, cartoons, etc.) and little did I know it would be all of you. It’s an honor to work with people who pour their hearts and souls into this franchise and keep the Force so alive. Made it easy to go all in and follow suit. Thank you @dave.filoni & @jonfavreau for trusting me to bring Jabba the Hutt himself back home. There are so many more moments that went undocumented but deeply lived and loved while being a part of this project. To the fans… I'M HOME!! 😭🙌🏽🥹👏🏽. Dearest Ray & Dearest Shawna, Rest in beautiful peace and power 🙏🏽" (screenshot)
