We kind of figured this was coming as there was rumours a female led show was in the works, but the source seems official now.

Yeah, it seems more and more likely that the female-led series being run by Leslye Headland will be a live-action Ahsoka-centric show starring Rosario Dawson. It will also likely feature Katee Sackhoff as Bo-Katan, Temuera Morrison as Captain Rex, and possibly Sasha Banks as Sabine.
The Banks rumour hasn't been as widely reported as the others, but she did have a storyline injury in WWE earlier this year that would have lined-up with the shooting schedule for season 2 of Mando. Also, I wasn't sure if they'd cast someone without any traditional acting experience in that role, but after seeing the praise Favreau and Filoni have for Gina in this week's Disney Gallery episode, I'm more inclined to think they wouldn't have a problem casting a wrestler.
