It's not known what will happen in The Mandalorian season three, but a certain doctor might be able to tell us. Christopher Lloyd, best known for playing Brown in the Back to the Future films, has been cast in the upcoming season of the hit Disney+ Star Wars show.
The specific role is a mystery, but it is likely to be a guest star, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Think of Stephen Root in The Book of Boba Fett or Michael Biehn in The Mandalorian season two. This is Christopher freaking Lloyd. That is a whole other level of prestige and quality.
Lloyd, who will turn 84 in October, began his career on stage in the 1960s and didn't star in a movie until 1975, when he was in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's nest. It was a debut. He won two Emmys for his work on Taxi and made Back to the Future and Star Trek as well as appearing in Buckaroo Banzai. His unique energy makes him a perfect match for a distant universe.
The third season of The Mandalorian is currently filming in California and has yet to be decided on a release date. The last two seasons of the show, as well as the recent spin-off, The Book of Boba Fett, make November or December the most likely slot. We will find out in May, when the next Star Wars show, Obi-Wan Kenobi, airs, and Star Wars fans descend upon Anaheim, California for Star Wars Celebration. Let's hope that Din Djarin and Grogu will be able to say "Beskar" when they return to The Book of Boba Fett. You don't need Beskar where we're going.
