Ming-Na Wen will reportedly return as ruthless mercenary Fennec Shand for the upcoming second season of The Mandalorian.
The character was briefly introduced in one of the less well-received episodes of the first season, only to be shot and left for dead by Toro Calican as part of his scheme to double cross Dyn Jarren. However, right at the end of "The Gunslinger," we did see a mysterious figure approach Shand's lifeless body, leading to speculation that she may still be clinging to life.
Now, The Hashtag Show reports that the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. alum has indeed filmed scenes for season 2 of the Disney+ Star Wars series. No details are provided beyond that, but with Calican already six feet under, it's entirely possible Fennec will look to take vengeance on our Mando hero and "The Child" instead.
That Hashtag Show also reveals that we will see Sandtroopers and Imperial Gunners during the second season, which obviously suggests that Moff Gideon has more troops at his disposal than we realized.
The Mandalorian Season 2 is set to premiere this October on Disney+, and will also see the debut of Rosario Dawson as fan-favorite force-wielder Ahsoka Tano. How do you guys feel about Fennec Shand returning to action? Let us know in the comments.
