Disney and Lucasfilm are set to take us behind the scenes of the season two finale of The Mandalorian this month with a special episode of Disney Gallery which will give fans an insight into the creation of the surprise cameo from Luke Skywalker which left a generation of middle-aged men reaching for the Kleenex (for their eyes, of course).
The (clunkily-titled) Disney Gallery: Star Wars: The Mandalorian – Making of the Season 2 Finale doesn’t land until the 25th of the month, but a couple of screenshots from a new Disney+ content trailer have hit social media – one of which shows Mark Hamill alongside Grogu and R2-D2, confirming that not only was Hamill on set for the sequence, but he was also back in the Return of the Jedi robes for at least part of the production.
