What if George Lucas returned to the Star Wars universe? In any case, this is the dream of Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni, as the two creators of the Mandalorian series confided to our colleagues.Entertainment Weekly.
During the interview, the two screenwriters revealed that they wanted to convince the creator of the Star Wars franchise to make a cameo in the series. It’s hard work, but as long as Jon Favreau keeps hope (We had everyone we wanted from Mark Hamill to Werner Herzog.), Dave Philon, on the other hand, was more fatalistic:
“He was supposed to play Baron Papanoida’s son or something (laughs). I don’t know, I don’t even want to speculate.” He made the comment, referencing the character played by George Lucas in a scene from Revenge of the Sith, a character who also appeared in the animated series The Clone Wars, developed with Dave Filoni.

If it seems unlikely that Lucas will appear in The Mandalorian, it should be noted that the creator of Star Wars has visited the films of the series several times to support what many consider to be his spiritual successor:
“He’s on the set when Dave does an episode. I love watching Dave and George work together. I have a lot of respect for him. I was lucky enough to have a long conversation with him where I learned a lot. But when I see Dave. And George Lucas together, it It’s something else.” Jon Favreau assured during the same interview.
The third season of The Mandalorian, whose first images were released this weekend during D23, will be released on the Disney+ platform early next year.
