“Empire Strikes Back” assassin droid, IG-88 will appear in the upcoming streaming series “The Mandalorian”.
Producer Jon Favreau spilled the beans on Instagram, posting a photo of the rusted robot baddie. In “Empire”, IG-88 was one of five bounty hunters – along with Boba Fett, Dengar, Bossk, Zuckuss and 4-LOM – tasked with the mission of finding Han Solo.
After the stories of Jango and Boba Fett, another warrior emerges in the Star Wars universe. The Mandalorian is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order. We follow the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far from the authority of the New Republic.
“The Mandalorian” is expected to air on Disney Plus next year.
