The Guest Stars Strike Back: The Mandalorian Spinoffs

[formerlyfreedom]

Ahsoka, Boba Fett, Fennec, Bo-Katan, Cara Dune, hell, why not Moff Gideon? "Better Call Moff" anyone?

All jokes aside, Disney is clearly using The Mandalorian as a springboard for more Star Wars fodder content. Here's a spot to talk about all the possibilities, the news, and what you'd like to see!

Is Emilia Clarke busy? Now that Boba is the Boss of Tatooine, he should be visited by the Galactic Boss...

I don't mind all the spin-offs. Between the time that Season 1 of "The Mandalorian" ended and Season 2 began, I hardly watched anything on Disney+. I am sure many people cancelled their subscriptions and renewed them later. If only Disney+ had some new content coming down the pipeline, I am sure that wouldn't have happened.

I'm excited for the Ahsoka show because she's such a great character. I'm only excited for the Boba show because of Ming Na Wen. I'm here for them showing a 50+ year old woman can still be a badass.

Don't know what the Rangers of the New Republic is about so I'll need more info on that.

I'm excited for ALL of them. I'm a Star Wars fan, if it's on I'll watch...at least give it a shot. 😊

I have to admit - not me. 😉  I had only seen a handful of Marvel movies; now I've seen them all and am obsessed with Baby Groot nearly as much as Baby Yoda.  I also relived my childhood and watched some of the classic animated Disney movies, plus ones that I had never seen before because I stopped watching animated movies for 20+ years.  The Emperor's New Groove? Frozen? Cars?  All perfectly suitable for adults.  🤣 

That said, I'm not sure I'm super interested in the Star Wars spinoff stuff.  As I've mentioned here before, I've never seen Clone Wars or Rebels so I don't know who these characters are.  I really only care about Din and Grogu.  I would like to see the baby.

Ming-Na has confirmed that she will be voicing Fennec in The Bad Batch.

This is really dumb...Boba was the clone equivalent of a pre-teen during the Clone Wars...Fennec is already several years older than him at that time. Unless she got frozen in carbonite for a while, no way she looks that much younger than Boba - Sarlacc digestive enzymes and accelerated clone aging acknowledged.

Only if you ignore Ming-Na Wen’s amazing genetics. Temuera Morrison is only 2 years older than Ming-Na Wen. If you apply her actual age to the Star Wars timeline Fennec would be 29 when the Clone Wars ended. She could be playing a decade younger than her real age and still be around as an adult during The Bad Batch.

Ming Na is Asian we age like Grogu.
