The galaxy of Star Wars It does not stop when it comes to attracting new stars, few franchises have as much magnetism as the one created by George Lucas. Among the many projects he has in hand Disneyhighlights the movie The Mandalorian & Grogu that will close the story of both characters.
The project is in the production stage and the company is in talks to get a really high-profile signing. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Sigourney Weaver is negotiating to join the cast from the film directed by Jon Favreau. The actress is synonymous with science fiction, since her first steps in the industry marked her forever as the mythical Ripley from the Alien saga.
Filming is expected to begin in late 2024 with Kathleen Kennedy and Dave Filoni, director and creative director of Lucasfilm, taking the role of producers. For now, it is unknown exactly what role Weaver would assume, although if they are looking to add her to The Mandalorian & Grogu Most likely it will not be for a few seconds to appear on the screen. We will see which character he embodies in a story that will also feature Pedro Pascal as Din Djarin.
The bounty hunter's adventures began in 2019 with The Mandalorian series released on Disney+ and Grogu, a baby of Master Yoda's race, joined his travels, which made them an iconic couple on the small screen. Of course, patience will have to be our best weapon at this point, since an exact release date is not scheduled for the film, although it will be in 2026.
