At age 51, the casting of Vanessa Marshall as Live-Action Hera would also mean that Hera (and Kanan, for that matter) are considerably older, by as much as a decade or more, than their characters appear in the animated series.
I always thought that Kanan and Hera were early 30's at their oldest, especially considering that Ezra and Sabine were somewhere around age 19 when the series concluded.
But with all of that said, the actor portrayal of Hera could be of any age past 32 or so because there will be a serious amount of makeup necessary, so it may not even matter in the end.
But considering it's Disney+ Star Wars, I have a feeling that they'll cast a much bigger star than Marshall, who's mainly known for her Voice Acting roles and not Live-Action.
