If there's one thing about The Mandalorian Season 2 that people are looking forward to, it would be more Baby Yoda. After all, the Child turned into the Star Wars show's breakout star in the first season. Interestingly, it looks like Pedro Pascal had a lot of fun working with the animatronic puppet. The former Game of Thrones actor shared an adorable interaction between him and his tiny co-star.
A segment on Good Morning America featured Pascal talking about his experience on The Mandalorian Season 2 (via Star Wars News Net). Not surprisingly, the Wonder Woman 1984 star had nothing but praise for Baby Yoda.
"This baby is beautiful, and the details on the Child are incredible. We're talking about this adorable peach fuzz hair on the tips of its ears. You'd be surprised, he's an incredible scene partner," Pascal said.
Interestingly, Pascal then revealed that he improvised a particular scene with Baby Yoda.
"Industrial Light and Magic, the effects team that work the puppet in a scene with me, you wouldn't believe what they'd be able to do. At one point… I'm not sure if it'll be in the final cut, but I improvised a line at the start of a scene. Basically, ‘don't get too close to the fire', and Baby Yoda, like, turned its head and reacted to me, and like, moved away from that, and that wasn't even in the writing. So there I am improvising with Baby Yoda!" he said.
It's amazing to know how well the effects team work together to make sure the actors are actively interacting with Baby Yoda. With that in mind, we can't wait to see more of the adorable character this week.
The Mandalorian Season 2 will premiere on Disney+ on October 30.
