Dave Filoni’s “Ahsoka” has given fans of “The Clones Wars” a treat with Episode 5 of the series, “Shadow Warrior.” The audience sees the live-action version of young Ahsoka.

The actress also played young Gamora in “Avengers: Infinity War,” appeared in the Disney+ movie “The One and Only Ivan,” and in the acclaimed musical “In the Heights.”
Greenblatt has already completed work on the upcoming “Borderlands” movie, where she will play Tiny Tina in director Eli Roth’s long-awaited video game adaptation.
