#Star wars sabine wren series#
Our connection on Avatar 2 isn’t a Star Wars fan at the level of watching the animated Star Wars stories so it was a general confirmation of the helmet’s existence in the series based off having seen products and just knowing the series existed. A “Coral” (aka Avatar 2) source visiting the set confirmed the Sabine helmet was being light checked (which we’ve seen them do with the Mando’s helmet at the set location a few times). We just know they are rendering her helmet in real time for the series according to MSW sources.įor a time we thought maybe the helmet was simply a placeholder object but sources have seen the helmet. So understand I don’t know if the woman clan leader in the series is Sabine and we aren’t even 100% sure that Carano is that character at this time. I believe Carano is an Italian name and I always thought Sabine’s character was Asian. We can’t confirm the helmet belongs to Sabine. Gina Carano can kind of look like Sabine if she started working out. So we can confirm the helmet is in the series.
I think the more conservative angle is its the same style of helmet but with Dave Filoni’s involvement and the work he’s done on the mythic Mando culture, history, and heritage, it is possible we could see her in the series. Is Gina Carano playing Sabin Wren? Right now if I had to guess I would think she could be playing the Mando clan leader we heard about and maybe she wears Sabine’s helmet or maybe that owl-shaped helmet is more common for Mando women than Star Wars Rebels let on (which I believe did show the style of Sabine’s helmet on different Mando women). Is Sabine Wren in The Mandalorian? We don’t know. The most interesting thing sources have noted is that the technology being used has been seen using Sabine Wren’s helmet from Star Wars Rebels. This technology is being used for one of the main cast members already announced, who is playing a CGI character, and this allows for the production to make a digital mold of the actor’s face and render his work in real time for the alien creature he’s playing in the series. Apparently a lot of the same technology is being used between Cameron’s production and this one. It isn’t uncommon to see “Huckleberry” (aka The Mandalorian) crew members eating lunch with “Coral” (aka Avatar 2) crew members. On past episodes we had hinted that the studio space being used for The Mandalorian was extremely close to the production of Avatar 2. In other words, the Mando crew knows what they’re getting in real time in a lot of ways and it would be dirt cheap in comparison.

The savings would allow for a TV budget, and to not have to wait for the shots to be fully rendered.

Lucasfilm and Disney Plus didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.If you remember back to our first ever report on Star Wars: The Mandalorian, I was being told that the production was going to be using some cutting-edge technology to bring the cost of rendering real-time visual effects down exponentially, allowing for a TV show to do things only done on film. But another Mandalorian and Star Wars spinoff, The Book of Boba Fett, is scheduled to start streaming on Disney Plus Dec. Though Star Wars: Ahsoka was originally expected to launch on Disney Plus around the year-end holidays this year, there's still no release date in sight.
