RUMOR: 'The Mandalorian' Might Be Coming To Disney's Galaxy's Edge Very Soon
For those people (like me) who have never been to Galaxy’s Edge, Disney’s “Star Wars Land" that opened at Disneyland, California on May 31, 2019, and at Walt Disney World, Florida on August 29 of the same year, there is still a plethora of possibilities to find out what it looks and feels like to walk the busy streets of Black Spire Outpost through both pictures and videos that were posted either by Disney itself or by people who have actually been there. Just search for “galaxy’s edge” or “black spire outpost” on YouTube.

Throwback Line From Han Solo Removed From The Novelization of 'The Force Awakens'
It seems that the story of the sequel trilogy is one rife with some kind of curse, since the behind the scenes stories never seem to end. First the rumors for years about whether they would ever happen before Disney took over the franchise and now the endless tales, there's sure not a lack of content involving the sequel trilogy for us to hear. It seems it's not over yet either. Now, according to author Alan Dean Foster, Disney made him remove a throwback line from his novelization of The Force Awakens.

Temuera Morrison Is One Of The Busiest Actors In 'Star Wars': 'The Book of Boba Fett,' 'Obi-Wan Kenobi,' And 'The Mandalorian' Season 3
When Temuera Morrison wrapped filming for his part as Clone Commander Cody (and a few other soldiers of the Grand Army of The Republic) on the set of Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of The Sith, he probably thought that this was the last time the audience would see his face in moving pictures within the far away galaxy. Although George Lucas had Morrison re-dub Boba Fett’s lines (there aren’t that many) for the DVD release of the original trilogy in 2004, it seemed that the future of the notorious bounty hunter would lie with someone else: fellow New Zealand actor Daniel Logan, who had played the unaltered clone son of Jango Fett in Episode II – Attack of The Clones and would go on to voice Fett in five episodes of The Clone Wars.

'The Mandalorian's' Luke Skywalker Scene Was An "Unexpected Gift" For Mark Hamill
Every Star Wars fan who is not currently living under a rock is still talking about (and perhaps even rewatching) the most recent surprising moment in the franchise. That moment in this instance being the classic iconic character Luke Skywalker's appearance in the season 2 finale of the hit Disney+ series titled The Mandalorian. Even Mark Hamill is a fan of his character's debut in the show. How could he not be? In the tweet (which can be seen below), Hamill expresses a sentiment that many fans can relate to. "Sometimes the greatest gifts are the most unexpected," the tweet says in part. While few were expecting the appearance of Luke Skywalker, many were moved to tears by his arrival. Not only due to his most impressive display of Force mastery and lightsaber technique, but because of what his presence meant for Mando and Baby Yoda. The emotional and action-packed conclusion to The Mandalorian's second season is regarded by many as the best episode to date, in no small part because of the appearance of Luke.

Chris Pratt And Chris Hemsworth Will Be On Set Together Next Week For ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’
As we know, the ending of Avengers: Endgame set up the next adventure between Star-Lord and Thor. Marvel fans are expecting at least some of the members from the Guardians of the Galaxy to be included in the next highly anticipated Thor film of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Thor: Love and Thunder. Some have speculated that this could either be a full blown team-up film between Thor and Star-Lord, or this could be just a cameo role for Star-Lord. But knowing Marvel, they will have a big crossover between the two franchises, perhaps something like Captain America: Civil War, which Anthony Mackie said has the feel of an Avengers 2.5. Some of us are hoping that Thor: Love and Thunder will feel like an Avengers 4.5.

'Shedding': Film Review
"As every cat owner knows, nobody owns a cat" – attributed to Ellen Perry Berkeley When describing Shedding's premise, one might immediately think of a reverse look at Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis. Kafka's classic work is a depressing tale about a man who loses his identity and self-worth. Shedding is about a cat who becomes human. Instead of becoming a burden like Gregor Samsa's grotesque insect form, Panda the Cat as a human is a blessing to the few other humans he encounters during his adventure.

Director Robert Rodriguez Jamming Out On Set With Baby Yoda
When it comes to Star Wars in 2021, nothing is more popular than The Mandalorian and the freshly-separated duo of Din Djarin and Grogu. More commonly referred to as Mando and Baby Yoda, these two have captured the hearts, attention, and dollars of the entire fandom. It appears that not even directors with a penchant for onscreen blood and violence are immune to Grogu's adorable snare. While directing the sixth episode of season 2, Robert Rodriguez and Grogu had a moment to connect, jam, and tweet out the video, which can be seen below. With Grogu perched on the Seeing Stone and Rodriguez playing guitar, the video sent out by Rodriguez is one of the best things to come out of 2020. Its clear that Baby Yoda was feeling the vibe of Rodriguez's guitar playing as he bobs his head and twitches his ears to the beat. This clip can also be seen in Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian, the behind-the-scenes documentary that debuted on Disney+ on Christmas Day, in addition to many other clips of Rodriguez's strumming in the directors chair.
