Last week’s episode of The Mandalorian was a major one as it brought a popular character from the Star Wars animated universe to live-action for the first time. Not Ahsoka Tano, though she is on her way, but Bo-Katan Kryze, the Mandalorian warrior as played by Katee Sackhoff. While Ahsoka will be portrayed by Rosario Dawson on the show, whereas Ashley Eckstein voiced her on The Clone Wars and Rebels, Sackhoff has embodied the character in both mediums.
And she might get to play Bo-Katan in the movie medium, too. We Got This Covered has heard from our sources – the same ones who told us that Ahsoka was coming to The Mandalorian in the first place – that Lucasfilm is thinking about giving Sackhoff her own SW movie. We’ve been told that they want to give Bo-Katan her own spinoff flick. It hasn’t been specified yet, but we’d imagine this would be headed for Disney Plus and not a theatrical release.
We know that The Mandalorian is going to be geared towards producing as many spinoffs as possible going forward. First up is the Boba Fett miniseries featuring Temuera Morrison, following his brief cameo in the season 2 premiere. An Ahsoka show is likely to arrive after that. It only makes sense that Bo-Katan has got a future in the live-action franchise as well. Especially with a known name like Sackhoff in the role.
Going by the plot threads left hanging by her Mandalorian appearance, a spinoff movie could explore how Bo-Katan went from possessing the darksaber and planning to use it to unite the Mandalorian people to having lost it to Moff Gideon and becoming a rebel outlaw once again, as we saw in Chapter 11. Alternatively, if season 2 ends up explaining this itself, a Bo-Katan film could follow on from there and explore what happens to her next.
Who wants to see Katee Sackhoff get her own Star Wars movie? Sound off in the comments.
