Jeremy Allen White joining the Star Wars franchise, and it’s not a role you’d expect

Here’s a little Star Wars news for you on this fine Monday afternoon. While appearing on The Kristian Harloff Show, scooper Jeff Sneider revealed that Jeremy Allen White will join the Star Wars franchise in The Mandalorian & Grogu. He even said he knows which role The Bear actor will be playing, and it’s probably not what you’re expecting.

Sneider has heard it will be a voice role, with White helping to bring Rotta the Hutt to life. That’s right. The character is the son of Jabba the Hutt and was first seen in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars movie when he was just a wee lad. Deadline has since confirmed White’s involvement in The Mandalorian & Grogu, adding that it will be a “notably sized role” and not a mere cameo.

More to come…
