Star Wars Day 2020: 'The Mandalorian' star Ming-Na Wen breaks down Fennec Shand's costume in detailed post
Star Wars Day has been celebrated with much fanfare across the world and 'The Mandalorian' star Ming-Na Wen who played Fennec Shand gave the world a detailed look at the costume on twitter making the celebrations a lot better.
Shand was seen in 'Chapter 5: The Gunslinger' and the image shows her both with and without the orange and black mask.
According to Comicbook, Wen said 'Star Wars' changed her life. "Ever since I was a little girl, when I saw Star Wars, it changed my life. I can't even imagine the impact that it must continue to have in all the future generations since then," Wen said during a convention appearance last year.
"But I used to like pray to God, Buddha, and the Force. I’m not kidding. And to this day, when I get on a plane, I still pray to God, Buddha, and the Force we land safely [laughs]," she added.
"Every role that comes along, there’s always a challenge to it, but I would have to say [my most challenging role was] Mandalorian. Because, having had this dream of wanting to be in the Star Wars world, and then finally getting the part, I wanted her to be — yeah, I’m playing a woman, I gave that away! I can’t believe I gave that away."
Wen continued, "I'm gonna be arrested and put in some Disney dungeon. They're gonna take away my Legends title. So I think that one, I put so much thought and process into creating her. Everything from the way her hair would be, so that was a really important one for me. I hope you guys like her."
As far as news of Season 2 goes, director, Robert Rodriguez joins an ensemble list of directors that include Dave Filoni, Taika Waititi, Bryce Dallas Howard and Jon Favreau. Not to mention Peyton Reed.
'The Mandalorian' stars Pedro Pascal as The Mandalorian, Gina Carano as Cara Dune, Giancarlo Esposito as Moff Gideon, Carl Weathers as Greef Carga, Werner Herzog as The Client and Emily Swallow as The Armorer. And, of course, the cuddly-cuddly 50-year-old, Baby Yoda is set to return in Season 2 as well.
