Baylan Skoll’s story in Ahsoka is left unresolved at the end of Season 1, and the character is expected to continue in Season 2 rather than being written out. Reports from 2025 say the role was recast with Rory McCann after Ray Stevenson’s death, so the plan is to keep Baylan’s storyline going.

What we know

Baylan is last seen on Peridea, separated from the main cast and still pursuing his own mysterious goal. That means the show leaves his fate open rather than giving him a final death or clear ending in Season 1.

Why people are talking about it

A lot of the discussion online centers on two things: the mystery of what Baylan is really chasing, and the recast for Season 2 after Ray Stevenson passed away. Some fan discussions speculate he may remain tied to the bigger mythic side of the story, but that part is still not officially explained.

Quick answer

  • In-universe: Baylan Skoll is not resolved yet; his arc is still open.
  • Production-wise: the character is continuing in Ahsoka Season 2 with Rory McCann taking over the role.
