Jon Favreau has explained why they brought Ahmed Best back to the franchise in The Mandalorian season 3. The showrunner took to the stage at Star Wars Celebration 2023 to chat about the Jar Jar Binks actor's casting – and brought along some pals to discuss what's to come in the show, too.
"He's someone who's always been there with us," Favreau said, remembering when he and executive producer Dave Filoni were discussing who could save baby Grogu in the latest batch of episodes. "The appreciation when he appeared on screen was such a wonderful moment."
