28 Oct
Summary
- Hannah Waddingham expressed interest in a Star Wars role.
- She suggested playing the mother of Grogu, also known as Baby Yoda.
- Upcoming Star Wars movies include 'Starfighter' in May 2027.
Hannah Waddingham, a familiar face from the hit series Ted Lasso, has thrown her hat into the ring for a role in the expansive Star Wars franchise. During an appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, Waddingham directly addressed Star Wars producer Jon Favreau, expressing her keen interest in joining the galaxy far, far away.
Waddingham's most surprising pitch involved taking on the role of Grogu's mother. This has sparked curiosity among fans, as the origins and species of Grogu, affectionately known as Baby Yoda, remain one of the biggest mysteries in the Star Wars saga. Little is known about Yoda's species or their procreation.
The next major Star Wars film is set to be 'Star Wars: Starfighter,' with a scheduled release date of May 28, 2027. Additionally, a new season of Ahsoka is anticipated to premiere on Disney+ on January 20, 2027. Lucasfilm has yet to announce casting for these upcoming projects, leaving anticipation high for Waddingham's potential involvement.
