The Mandalorian Season 2 adds The Terminator’s Michael Biehn
A few days after the addition of Rosario Dawson in the key role of Ahsoka Tano for The Mandalorian‘s second season, the Disney+ Star Wars spin-off series has expanded its roster with the addition of The Terminator and Aliens star Michael Biehn in an undisclosed role, according to The Wrap.
With Biehn’s role currently unknown, it could mark a reunion between the 63-year-old star and writer/director Robert Rodriguez (Alita: Battle Angel), who is rumored to be directing at least one episode of the upcoming second season. The two previously worked together on the acclaimed sci-fi horror comedy film Planet Terror, part of the double feature Grindhouse, in which he played a sheriff facing off against a zombie apocalypse.
