Disney and Lucasfilm's announcement of The Mandalorian and Grogu on social media, back in January 2024, was as much of a surprise to Pedro Pascal as it was to Star Wars fans.
In a new interview with Empire magazine, the actor, who reprises his role as titular hero Din Djarin in the new sci-fi movie, recalled hearing "whispers" about the big screen spin-off around that time. He didn't know, though, that it was actually happening until he saw news of the project being shared online.
