The Big Picture Sigourney Weaver could land herself in a new science fiction role as she's currently in talks to appear in the next Star Wars film. The Avatar actress could land a potential key role in The Mandalorian & Grogu, a feature-length film about Din Djarin and his apprentice, Grogu. According to The Hollywood Reporter, and first reported by Jeff Sneider, not many details about Weaver's potential role have been revealed.

The Mandalorian & Grogu is a Star Wars movie based on the popular Disney Plus series, The Mandalorian. The show was first released on November 12, 2019, and ran for three seasons. This show led to other Star Wars titles that are connected to this show's story, such as The Book of Boba Fett and Ahsoka, thus creating the 'Mando-verse' timeline in the Star Wars franchise. So far, plans for The Mandalorian season 4 have yet to be confirmed.

The Mandalorian and Grogu is scheduled to hit theaters on May 22, 2026. Until then, The Mandalorian is streaming on Disney+.
