We’re under a year away from the arrival of Star Wars Celebration Japan 2025 and with tickets available tomorrow at midnight here in the UK, the first wave of guests have been announced. Included in that list is a man who has appeared in every live action big screen film (and an animated one too), the voice of Ahsoka Tano, the baddest bounty hunter in the galaxy (and his Dad) and the creative mind behind numerous designs. Anthony Daniels, Ashley Eckstein, Temuera Morrison and Doug Chiang are heading to the Makuhari Messe in Japan between 18th – 20th April 2025.
Star Wars icon Anthony Daniels, the only actor to work on all 11 Star Wars feature films, will make an appearance. Daniels notably portrayed C-3PO in all three Skywalker saga trilogies.
Also from live action, Temuera Morrison will be there. Morrison first played Jango Fett and his army of clones in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones, and has more recently brought Boba Fett back from the (presumed) dead on The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett.
Lucasfilm’s own Doug Chiang, an Academy Award-winning artist who also serves as senior vice president and executive design director, will be there, too. Recently, Chiang has served as production designer on several Star Wars live-action series, including The Mandalorian, Ahsoka, and Skeleton Crew.
And from animation, Ashley Eckstein, the voice of Ahsoka Tano in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels, and Tales of the Jedi, will appear. The event is excited to welcome back Official Pix as the autograph provider for the show.
