An upcoming episode of “Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian” on Disney+ will explore the technology used to bring young Luke Skywalker back to screens. Read more below and watch the special episode on August 25.


In last year’s Season 2 finale of “Star Wars: The Mandalorian,” the appearance of a young Luke Skywalker was one of the biggest reveals and best-kept secrets of the acclaimed show thus far. Reactions to the episode were emotionally charged for many, deeply resonating with generations of fans who were elated to see the Jedi Master in his post-Return of the Jedi prime. The story of the cutting-edge technology used to bring Luke back is the subject of a special extra episode of “Disney Gallery: Star Wars: The Mandalorian,” debuting August 25 on Disney+.

“Making of the Season 2 Finale” is a behind-the-scenes look at the making of this celebrated chapter of “The Mandalorian,” with a focus on the technology used for recreating Luke Skywalker. It delves into the collaborative process, including working with Mark Hamill, to create an authentic and fitting recreation, and explores the immense pressure and responsibility the filmmakers had in bringing back one of the most important characters in film history. 

The Television Academy recognized the second season of “The Mandalorian” earlier today with 24 Emmy award nominations, including Best Drama Series.

“Disney Gallery: Star Wars: The Mandalorian – Making of the Season 2 Finale” will premiere on August 25 exclusively on Disney+.

Gina Carano Teases A Star Wars Return

Posted on by Mathew Corn Uncategorized

Gina Carano had a quick split with her Star Wars career following some social media controversy last year.  Now however we are wondering if things are being smoothed over and we could possibly see her return.

In a recent Twitter post, Carano posts a picture that gives off a very strong Star War vibe. The photo depicts a shrouded figure – possibly Carano herself – standing on a very Tatooine-alike landscape watching not a binary but a trinary sunset. Further adding to the intrigue, the actress shared the pic without a comment.

We have seen Carano in a Disney+ series as she was in Running Wild with Bear Grylls even though they tried to bury the season.  We still have a long ways to go before we get back to seeing her on The Mandalorian.

It isn’t clear if this photo is a teaser for a Star Wars like project she is working on or not.  As season three of The Mandalorian seems to be a while down the road, it might be a while before we know exactly what this photo means.

Gina Carano Fired From Star Wars: The Mandalorian

Posted on by Mathew Corn Disney+

Big Star Wars news unraveling as we’ve learned Gina Carano, the bounty hunter known as Cara Dune in Lucasfilm and Disney+’s The Mandalorian, has been fired.

As reported by Deadline: In the wake of Gina Carano’s controversial social media posts, Lucasfilm has released a statement Wednesday night, with a spokesperson saying “Gina Carano is not currently employed by Lucasfilm and there are no plans for her to be in the future. Nevertheless, her social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable.”

The actress shared a TikTok post comparing the current divided political climate in the U.S. to Nazi Germany. “Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors…even by children. Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views,” she wrote.
