Sigourney Weaver (Alien, Avatar…) could be ready to return to space with a new role: according to new rumors, the actress is ready to appear in The Mandalorian & Groguthe film dedicated to the Disney Plus TV series.
The information is indicated by The Hollywood Reporter and The InSneider, but there are no additional details on what role it might play and how close Weaver and Disney are to closing a deal.
Weaver he has won many awards throughout his career, including a BAFTA for Ice Storm, two Golden Globes for Gorillas in the Mist and Working Girl, and even a Grammy for Earth (The Book). She has also been nominated for three Oscars, one of them for her work in Aliens.
The Mandalorian & Grogu
As for The Mandalorian & Grogu, it is currently scheduled to be the first Star Wars film to be released theatrically since 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker. This new film will be directed by Jon Favreau and will “lead Lucasfilm’s ongoing feature film development program, which includes films directed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, James Mangold and Dave Filoni.”
The Mandalorian & Grogu currently has a publication date set for May 22, 2026so we will have to wait a little longer before we can see the film.
Furthermore, the film will be a continuation of the adventures of Mango and Grogu that began in the TV series The Mandalorian. Before seeing the film it is recommended to see what happened on the small screen, perhaps also taking a look at The Book of Boba Fett, given that its story is intertwined with that of The Mandalorian and helps to connect the seasons of the latter series.
Going further but remaining on the Star Wars theme, the series The Acolyte The Follower is also coming which will tell about the Republic one hundred years before the Skywalker saga. The Mandalorian is instead positioned in the early years of the new Republic, after the conclusion of the original Star Wars trilogy.
