Star Wars TV Show: Everything We Know About The Mandalorian

2. A Lone Gunslinger

As per the synopsis revealed by Favreau himself, the show will "follow the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far from the authority of the New Republic."

That description very much gives it a Western tinge, which not only fits well with Star Wars as a whole, but even more so the Mandalorians. Indeed, it's not too far removed from rumours of what a Boba Fett movie would be about, and taking that and transplanting it to a longer series with a new character is an enticing prospect.

If this is the role Pascal is being eyed for then it's even better still, as he has the perfect roguish charm to pull it off.
