We don’t know the name of Sigourney Weaver’s new character in The Mandalorian & Grogu, but we do know that she will join a long tradition of very specific Star Wars occupations: star pilots. During Star Wars Celebration 2025 in Tokyo, Japan, details were finally revealed about Weaver’s character in the next Star Wars movie, and it all sounds both incredible and intriguing.
Incredible, because getting to see Weaver pilot any famous Star Wars craft is the realization of a dream many sci-fi fans never knew they had. But this development is intriguing because it will be interesting to see how this character fits into the retroactive continuity of this specific moment of the Star Wars timeline.
