Some theories further suggest that she might be an Inquisitor since Darth Vader will certainly appear in the series. One fan even suggested that she might play a character from a Kenobi novel.

On the other hand, some fans are glad that her character has not been revealed.

 “Thank you for not revealing her character. Really wish they would stop doing that. Ahsoka and Boba could have been a surprise for a lot more people.”

Varma’s casting seems to have renewed fans’ excitement about the franchise as well. We are eager to see what role Varma will portray and impress fans again. May the Force be with her.
