In the build-up to the release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and The Mandalorian, some new character descriptions have been revealed.
When it comes to Star Wars fans, they want to soak up every bit of information possible before the next big release. In the next few months, both The Rise of Skywalker and The Mandalorian will arrive, giving audiences plenty to look forward to.
The latest reveals about the two properties come in the way of new character descriptions for some of the main characters – giving fans a taste of what to expect. They come our way through a new toy line, as reported by Star Wars News Net.
The new description for Kylo Ren is: “As Supreme Leader of the First Order, Kylo Ren wields more power than ever before. Nevertheless, Ren continues to search for secrets of the Force from the depths of the dark side.”
For the new Sith Troopers, the description reads: “In its ultimate push towards galactic conquest, the First Order readies an army of elite soldiers that draw inspiration and power from a dark and ancient legacy.”
These two descriptions certainly reveal some fascinating details about the plot of Episode IX. But what about The Mandalorian? Well, the title character has gotten his own write up too:
“His body is shielded by beskar armor, his face is hidden behind a T-visored mask, and his past is wrapped in mystery. The Mandalorian is battle-worn and tight-lipped, a formidable bounty hunter in an increasingly dangerous galaxy.”
Suitable mysterious, the above description fits in pretty well with the vibe the Mandalorian gives off in the trailers. Fortunately, it’s not much longer wait before fans can see him in action themselves.
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is set for release on December 19th 2019 in the UK and December 20th 2019 in North America with J.J. Abrams (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) directing a cast that includes Star Wars veterans Daisy Ridley (Rey), Adam Driver (Kylo Ren), John Boyega (Finn), Oscar Isaac (Poe Dameron), Lupita Nyong’o (Maz Kanata), Domhnall Gleeson (General Hux), Kelly Marie Tran (Rose Tico), Joonas Suotamo (Chewbacca), Billie Lourd (Lieutenant Connix), Greg Grunberg (Snap Wexley), Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker), Anthony Daniels (C-3PO), Billy Dee Williams (Lando Calrissian) and Carrie Fisher (Leia Organa) as well as new additions Naomi Ackie (Lady Macbeth), Richard E.
