And no, we\u2019re not counting all the returning Mandalorian actors as cameos. Instead, we\u2019ll draw your attention to the two X-Wing pilots who stop Mando when he\u2019s test-driving his new ship \u2013 one of them (Captain Carson Teva, played by Paul Sun-Hyung Lee) has appeared before, but his younger counterpart is a newcomer to the New Republic peacekeepers called Lieutenant Reed.<\/p>\n

You see, he was the body double for Mark Hamill\u2019s Luke Skywalker in The Mandalorian season 2 finale, with his face later digitally changed to that of the younger Hamill (who also provided the voice) to complete the effect.<\/p>
In other words, Lloyd-Jones is a new face to Star Wars, but not a new set of shoulders, knees or toes. And now his mug has made its debut as well, and given that Luke Skywalker was an X-Wing pilot himself it seems like a pretty appropriate role for him to show up in (possibly as a reward for keeping such a big secret at the time).<\/p>\n
And who knows? If they\u2019re keeping the actor who brought de-aged Luke to life within the Star Wars family, maybe this isn\u2019t the last we\u2019ve seen of Jedi Master Skywalker either. After all, Mando did say he was off to see a little friend soon\u2026 and we know who that little friend left with\u2026<\/p>\n
