Star Wars Universe

THE BIG PLUS: THE CHARACTERS

One of the main reasons why the series is such a hit is its characters. And yes, if you haven’t spent the last few weeks behind the moon, you won’t have been able to avoid thousands and thousands of Baby Yoda memes. Fortunately, the green bundle of joy is much more than just a cute little object in itself, and despite all the cuteness, it is equipped with a good measure of fascinating imponderability.

But there are also real second-row trump cards. In fact, there are several candidates for this position. The good-hearted Kuiil (Nick Nolte)? The tough and charismatic Cara Dune (Gina Carano)? Or simply the villain portrayed with diabolical enthusiasm by master director Werner Herzog? Or maybe the crazy assassin droid IG-11? All of them are well-conceived, with memorable performances and fit perfectly into the stories so that the series – especially when seen as a whole – can be a well-oiled show.

But besides all the strong supporting characters, the gravitational center is, without a doubt, the eponymous bounty hunter, who is spoken by Pedro Pascal – although always taciturn and enveloped by his bulky full body armor.

The fact that the taciturn protagonist never takes off his helmet is much more than a mere gimmick, but a credible hanger for interesting conflicts.

Lucasfilm… no, no… the helmet stays on his head!

What’s making the character especially interesting, however, is that his past is a blank spot for the most part. You can see that he has already been through quite some stuff, but you don’t know exactly what. The Mandalorian is a multi-layered and highly competent character from the beginning. And with this skeleton, he reminds a little bit of the most daring and charmer character in the universe: Han Solo (besides, there are flamethrowers attached to his wrists, which make him an attractive toy figure).

DISCOVER THE FIGURES TO COLLECT

“The Mandalorian” is a “Star Wars” adventure, as one can hardly imagine it to be more varied. The first “Star Wars” real-life series is surprisingly old-fashioned, enormously charming, with the heart in the right place, and despite its different stories is held together by a dazzling and perfectly harmonizing cast of characters. 5 stars!
