"The Mandalorian director Jon Favreau likens his Lucasfilm series to the idea of playing with Star Wars toys as a child. "That's how I learned how to tell stories," Favreau explained at the launch of the Star Wars: Most Wanted campaign. "You take these characters, you're talking with your friends, and you're acting things out [with the toys]. My job is not that different from that.""
"The first big-screen adventure for Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and his Force-sensitive protege, the film sees Favreau turning the proverbial toy box upside down in search of new threats for our heroes. Fans have already picked out a handful of returning characters, alien species, and ships in the latest trailer, from bounty hunter Embo (my personal glup shitto) to the Mantellian Savrip, whose silhouette is best recognized as a holochess piece."
