Myrddin Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Mandalorians were prominent in both Clones Wars and Rebels. It's probably a known word for most SW fans. Not casual fans, like my wife, but for people who will be subscribing to a streaming channel to see more SW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even know how to respond to that. You're bad and should feel bad! ETA: It would instantly be a good title if it were something like The Last Mandalorian. "Mandalorian? What's that?" "I don't know, but it's the last of whatsis, sounds intriguing." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calibandar Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 What would be the chance that this gunfighter lead character is male? 5%? Is 10% stretching it? There is a distinct evasion in that little synopsis which probably says enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvinus85 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 First image also released, though it's CG or a stunt guy is in the suit. https://www.cbr.com/star-wars-the-mandalorian-first-image-directors-production-start/ Could be female. Also an impressive list of directors: Dave Filoni, Taika Waititi, Deborah Chow, Rick Famuyiwa, Bryce Dallas Howard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrddin Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Maybe Boba crawled out of the Sarlaac Pit and is starting over. /s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myrddin Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I know. Just hoping the show isn't about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 That image is of a man. Don't know why anyone thinks it could be woman. The rumor from a site that pegged some other info down accurately is that Pedro Pascal may be the star (as CBR notes). That makes me more interested.

Well that just sucks; not because of the actor, I like him but because he's a relatively well known actor as now he'll have his helmet off all the time which is the best part of the Mandalorian get up.

There was no chance that any actor in the role would spend much more than 10% of their screen time with the helmet on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at it this way, while the actor will most of the time be helmetless, the helmet allows for effective use of a stunt guy, and hopefully we'll get some crazy-awesome action scenes. Also, I doubt it will be about Sabine, but fans will go nuts if she plays a part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ran Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Just now, Calibandar said: Some balance would be nice after Force Awakens, Last Jedi and Rogue One. That makes eight films and five cartoons with male leads, versus three films and one cartoon with female leads. If we throw in games, I think every single game has had male leads... So, yeah, balance, man, glad you're for better representation of women in the Star Wars universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
