Out of the frying pan, into the Hutt: Jeremy Allen White is reportedly set to join the world of Star Wars as a classic villain's son in The Mandalorian & Grogu
Briefly

Jeremy Allen White’s casting as Rotta the Hutt in The Mandalorian & Grogu is a surprising choice, indicative of the trend of big names in unexpected roles.
The Mandalorian & Grogu has yet to reveal plot details, but White’s character being tied to Jabba suggests potential conflicts in the storyline.
The film, set for a May 22, 2026 release, marks the first Star Wars cinematic return since 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker.
The casting raises questions about the reliance on recognizable stars in franchise films, particularly when roles may involve heavy prosthetics and little spoken dialogue.
