The Mandalorian Star Emily Swallow Confirms the Armorer Will Have a Larger Presence in Season 3

After teasing the return of the character last year and appearing in the fifth episode of The Book of Boba Fett, last week we finally got confirmation that Emily Swallow will return as the Armorer in The Mandalorian season 3. Shortly after she participated in the 'Mando+' panel at Star Wars Celebration, where a trailer for the third season featuring the character was also shown, Swallow was interviewed by Ash Crossan for Screen Rant.



The actress first confessed that, for the Armorer, she doesn't really spend a lot of time thinking about the character's backstory when preparing for the role:

She also confirmed that the Armorer will have a bigger presence in season three when asked about it:

This was already teased by The Book of Boba Fett, which reintroduced the character into Din Djarin's life after the events of the season 1 finale. Many things happened since the two had seen each other the last time, and we saw the results of that too in the fifth episode of the series, when she said, 'Then you're a Mandalorian no more'. The Armorer also set off Din Djarin in his third season quest, when she sent him to look for the living waters beneath the mines of Mandalore to redeem his sins. From the trailer shown at Celebration, we already know season 3 of The Mandalorian will pick up this storyline.



During the convention, Favreau and Filoni also announced that the third season will hit Disney Plus in February 2023. The team is currently hard at work in Ahsoka, which is filming in Manhattan Beach at the moment.
