Sigourney Weaver is set to star in the upcoming The Mandalorian and Grogu, adding Star Wars to her collection of fan-favorite movie franchises, which includes Avatar and Alien. For the actor, however, it was all about the script. "That's my compass," she told Empire.
"[With] The Mandalorian and Grogu, it was not my intention to find a fourth franchise," she continued, "I didn't ever imagine that I would enter the Star Wars world. But what's interesting about Star Wars now is they're no longer trying to do the Star Wars to end all Star Wars. They're letting the universe exist, and tell[ing] really interesting stories within that."
