Ahead of Friday morning’s episode debut, Sackhoff’s casting had never exactly been fully confirmed by either Disney’s or Star Wars’ camps, but the Battlestar Galactica vet was very likely teasing fans on social media about Bo-Katan’s arrival ahead of the episode’s debut.
For Star Wars fans who didn’t think The Mandalorian had loaded up enough franchise easter eggs already in Season 2, Episode 3 arrived to take things up a notch or twelve with the introduction of Katee Sackhoff’s Bo-Katan Kryze, the human-Mandalorian hero that Sackhoff voiced for Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels.
Spoilers below for the latest episode of The Mandalorian, titled “The Heiress.”
