One year after the release of The Acolyte , a key parallel between "The Stranger" and Ahsoka Tano has been confirmed in the Star Wars canon. In the 2024 Star Wars series, Qimir aka The Stranger was a dark side user played by Manny Jacinto, seeking a new pupil to train. However, it's been confirmed that he does serve as a dark mirror to Ahsoka in one big way (though there may be more).

Lucasfilm Publishing is set to release Star Wars: The Acolyte: The Visual Guide by Pablo Hidalgo later this month. However, a handful of preview pages have already been revealed. This includes a page about The Acolyte's "Stranger", and the confirmation that his fighting style darkly mirrors Ahsoka Tano's in one major way.
