Mild spoilers ahead\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In a now-removed listing from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.odeon.co.uk\/odeon-scene\/cast-of-the-mandalorian-and-grogu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Odeon<\/a> that explains what the film\u2019s cast of characters are up to, a small profile revealing two key roles in the movie tells us some details on Coyne\u2019s Imperial Remnant antagonist and an unexpected rival that he has (via <a href=\"https:\/\/reddit.com\/r\/StarWarsLeaks\/comments\/1s7nc2r\/rumors_and_news_tidbits_thread_week_of_03302026\/odpveea\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">TobeyFunk on r\/StarWarsLeaks<\/a>, who spotted this before it was taken down). Here\u2019s what the site had to say in a profile for both characters:<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJonny Coyne and Dave Filoni play rival fighter aces. In the brimstone-red corner, Jonny Coyne plays a survivor from the fall of the Galactic Empire, now leading a brutal splinter group. Meanwhile, in the electric-blue corner, Mandalorian and Grogu producer Dave Filoni plays the New Republic\u2019s X-Wing ace Trapper Wolf. In this dogfight-to-end-all-dogfights, someone is going down.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It appears that, going off of this description, Coyne and Filoni are going to be on opposing sides of this conflict, suggesting that Trapper Wolf might just serve as an ally to the two title characters as they face off against other Imperial forces, along with revealing the possibility that Coyne\u2019s villain character will get inside a starfighter at some point.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Wolf has previously had direct interactions with both the Mandalorian and Grogu, and has been indirectly connected to their adventures as part of the New Republic\u2019s military operations. Filoni is, of course, the co-creator of The Mandalorian series, serving as a producer and co-writer on The Mandalorian and Grogu and is now overseeing its release as Lucasfilm\u2019s president and chief creative officer.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Filoni reportedly also voices another character in the movie \u2013 the bounty hunter Embo, who appears to cross paths with both of the title characters in another portion of this galaxy-spanning adventure. Though the character looks a lot like Embo, Lucasfilm hasn\u2019t even confirmed that it is indeed the same bounty hunter yet\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Mandalorian and Grogu will be released in theaters on May 22, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"m-a-box-avatar-url\" href=\"https:\/\/www.starwarsnewsnet.com\/author\/pomojema\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/4507e54ba396c138381949ea6d1856d3.png\"  class=\"avatar avatar-150 photo\" height=\"150\" width=\"150\" itemprop=\"image\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>                <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Grant has been a fan of\u00a0Star Wars\u00a0for as long as he can remember, having seen every movie on the big screen.
