Studio Lucasfilm fears that the actor Pedro Pascal may finally leave the series “Star Wars: The Mandalorian“(Star Wars: The Mandalorian). Blogger writes about it Daniel Richtman…
The insider does not provide details. However, rumors of the actor’s possible departure from the series have been circulating persistently over the past few months. Initially about the conflict reported writer Grace Randolph…
The problem was allegedly due to the fact that Pascal wanted more scenes in which he does not wear a helmet. He previously lost his nomination for “Golden globe“since the main character sported a helmet for most of the first season. The actor himself was often absent from the set, so he was replaced by stunt doubles. Pascal was also allegedly depressed that the main characters of” The Mandalorian “became Gina Carano and baby Yodawhile his character Dean Jarin stayed away.
Grace Randolph’s claims were denied by the second season of the series, in which Pedro Pascal received many more scenes without a helmet, and they were substantiated from the point of view of the plot. In the finale, he completely neglects his credo, remaining in front of strangers with an open face.
The debate about the actor’s departure erupted in early 2023 with renewed vigor after the announcement that Pedro Pascal would play Joel in the film adaptation The last of us on the TV channel HBO… In the material Deadline saidthat the project is based on the game Naughty dog for the actor is “higher priority” than “The Mandalorian” (later the original text was corrected). And now there is an insider from Richtman.
In general, it seems that the series “The Mandalorian” has fallen into a production hell, which is directly related to the scandalous dismissal of Gina Carano. Filming for the third season was supposed to start at the end of 2023, but it was postponed until spring due to the “secret spin-off”, which turned out to be a mini-series “Boba Fett’s book“(The book of boba fett), coming out at the end of 2023.
Now we are in the second half of March, but the shooting of “The Mandalorian” has not started yet. Instead, Lucasfilm has accelerated production of the long-suffering TV series. “Obi-Wan Kenobi“(Obi-wan kenobi), which runs parallel to the series “Andor“(Andor). Apparently, both projects are supervised by the head of the studio. Kathleen Kennedy…
The decision to move the graphs may well be due to the fact that the actor Ewan McGregor (Obi-Wan Kenobi) should appear in two serials at once. But the chances are high that the Mandalorian team has serious problems with Carano’s dismissal.
It is not known exactly what the showrunner has planned. Jon Favreau, but the finale of the second season led to the siege of Mandalore, which could not leave room for the characters of Carl Weathers and Gina Carano. Presumably, the latter were supposed to go to the series “Rangers of the New Republic“(Rangers of the New Republic).
Undoubtedly, Lucasfilm’s decision to kick Gina Carano forced Favreau to sit down to rewrite the script. And the leadership Disney is now doing everything to erase any memories of the actress, including the discontinuation of toys. And in March, two books based on “The Mandalorian” were canceled at once, which just signals about the scenario problems of the main project.
The reason for the dismissal of Carano was chosen as ugly as possible (accusations of racism and anti-Semitism), because Pedro Pascal himself could have been expelled for the same. But Carano is a “conservative” actress, while Pascal is a “progressive” actor. However, sabotaging production could well be an important reason for an artist to jump off a sinking ship.
