Jon Favreau Shares Adorable Video of Baby Yoda From the Set of THE MANDALORIAN
Jon Favreau and his team have already started production on The Mandalorian Season 2, and in celebration of Thanksgiving weekend, he shared a video from the set featuring Baby Yoda on a monitor being all kinds of cute. The video came along with a note from the director saying:
"If your Thanksgiving table gets too heated show everyone this video I took on the set of the Mandalorian."
Yep, that should diffuse any argument among family and friends. Politics and Star Wars both bring about heated debates these days!
I loved that this is brought to life as a functional practical effect that the actors can interact with. Werner Herzog loved this thing! He called Favreau and executive producer Dave Filoni cowards when they attempted to remove it from the set to shoot the scene again just in case the puppet wasn’t convincing enough. He even admitted to being brought to tears by the creature on the set of the series.
We’re only four episodes into the show, but I can’t wait to see where the story leads this great little character.
