The Mandalorian: Jamie Lee Curtis Rumored To Join Season 2 Cast

Jamie Lee Curtis is rumored to be the latest addition to the Mandalorian season 2 cast. The hit Disney+ original is returning with a new batch of episodes this October, hoping to build on the first season's success. There's already a great deal of excitement surrounding season 2 due to the show's various mysteries, including Baby Yoda's backstory and Moff Gideon's possession of the darksaber. However, Lucasfilm is doing their part to generate even more hype by bringing in some fresh faces to the ensemble.

The major casting, of course, is Rosario Dawson reportedly playing live-action Ahsoka Tano in a supporting role, which could tie into some of the series' most intriguing storylines. There are other newcomers as well, including Michael Biehn as a bounty hunter who has history with Din Djarin. Now, it appears another big name could be joining the galaxy far, far away... though things aren't quite so concrete in this instance.

According to Making Star Wars, Jamie Lee Curtis has a role in The Mandalorian season 2. However, it's worth mentioning the outlet classifies this strictly as a rumor, with their main evidence being Curtis was "at the location for the filming of the show" while season 2 was in production. Another possibility given is Curtis is involved with James Cameron's Avatar 2, which was shooting around the same area as The Mandalorian.

The Mandalorian has made a habit out of keeping secrets from viewers. They shot the entirety of season 1 without anyone leaking Baby Yoda, and the news about Rosario and Biehn broke after season 2 had wrapped production. Keeping in mind that this is a rumor (meaning, one should keep the grains of salt handy), it certainly wouldn't be the biggest shock if Curtis was a late addition to The Mandalorian's cast. Lucasfilm seems to do a good job of keeping things like that under wraps. Conversely, given Curtis' history with Cameron (she starred in his 1994 action classic True Lies), it'd also make sense if she had a role in Avatar 2. After all, Cameron is reuniting with another one of his famous collaborators, Kate Winslet, on the sci-fi sequel.

It'll be interesting to see what becomes of this rumor, as fans likely won't learn Mandalorian season 2 details straight from Disney for a while. The earliest viewers could expect some concrete information would be at July's San Diego Comic-Con or August's Star Wars Celebration, considering neither of those events are cancelled or postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. In the meantime, fans should reserve their excitement about Curtis being in Star Wars until there's something more official - though there's no denying an actress of her talent would be a welcome addition to the franchise.
