The Mandalorian Synopsis

The Mandalorian follows the adventures of a bounty hunter following the collapse of The Empire. This character is described as a “lone gunfighter,” but little is known about him or his motives outside of the bounty hunting profession. Some characters we get a glimpse of include IG-11, which appears to be an IG assassin droid. Originally believed to be IG-88, this droid was confirmed to be an original character and voiced by Taika Waititi.

Despite the events of Return of the Jedi, there are clearly some Imperials still trying to survive. Giancarlo Esposito plays Moff Gideon and there are several scenes throughout the two trailers depicting Stormtroopers. There are also some shots of Super Battle Droids, indicating that we may get flashbacks about either The Mandalorian’s past or the history of the planet they’re on.

The Mandalorian Cast

Even though Disney has been incredibly secretive about this show, we do know the principal cast and who they will be playing. We will update this section with any new information that is revealed following the show’s premiere on November 12.

Pedro Pascal as The Mandalorian

Helming the title character is accomplished actor Pedro Pascal. Best known for his roles as Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones and Whiskey in Kingsmen: The Golden Circle, Pascal has been acting since 1996. Along with The Mandalorian, he is set to appear in 2020’s Wonder Woman 1984 as the villain, Max Lord. While there is a small amount of info about his character, we do know a fair amount about where he comes from.

Mandalore was a planet that was thoroughly explored in The Clone Wars animated television show. Remaining neutral, Mandalore suffered numerous civil wars over the direction of the culture. Once fiercely prideful of their warriors, Mandalorians were divided on whether they should embrace pas traditions. This makes us quite curious about how Pascal’s character views his people’s history or if any of that even matters to him.

Taika Waititi as IG-11

Actor and director Taika Waititi confirmed that he is the voice the droid, IG-11. Described by Waititi as “very innocent and direct” due to his inability to use sarcasm or lie. You might recognize Waititi from his performances in What We Do in the Shadows, Thor: Ragnarok, Avengers: Endgame, and Jojo Rabbit. He’s also directed a number of films including Thor: Ragnarok, What We do in the Shadows, and Thor: Love and Thunder which is set to release in 2021.

Giancarlo Esposito as Moff Gideon

Portraying the Imperial leader Moff Gideon is Giancarlo Esposito. Best known for playing the superb Breaking Bad villain Gustavo Fring, Esposito has made a name for himself in a variety of different shows and films. He has also appeared in The Jungle Book, Better Call Saul, Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials, Once Upon a Time, and is the narrator in Dear White People.

As for his character in The Mandalorian, not much is known about Moff Gideon. In an interview, Esposito broke down his thoughts on the Moff, stating: “I play a guy who was a warden of the universe. He was in power before the [Empire] collapsed. You don’t know if he’s good or bad … but he certainly is a guy who has order in his life. He’s an exciting guy because he has all of the equipment and spaceships at his ready.”

Gina Carano as Cara Dune

Perhaps the most mysterious principal character, all we know about Cara Dune is that she was a former Rebel shock trooper. This could suggest that she had either a falling out with the Rebels or her services weren’t needed following The Empire’s destruction. Carano is best known for appearing in a variety of films including Haywire, Deadpool, and Fast & Furious 6.
