It's just been announced that
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and
Mulan actress Ming-Na Wen will have a role in Disney+'s
The Mandalorian, and we have our first look at her character along with some details on how she'll factor into the story.
According to
Vanity Fair, Wen will play a lethal assassin named Fennec Shand, who crosses paths with Pedro Pascal’s masked bounty hunter midway through the first season.
“We got our inspiration really from the name. The idea of a fennec fox came to mind,” Wen explains. “
She’s tricky, and yet she’s able to maneuver and survive, and be stealthy—so very graceful and agile. I just love that whole image with the name.”
You can get a glimpse of Shand in the newly released teaser below, which also features more footage of The Mandalorian himself in action.
Check out the trailer below along with a batch of character posters, and let us know what you think in the comments.
