Jack Black and Lizzo both made surprise appearances in the latest episode of the Disney+ Star Wars spin-off series The Mandalorian on Wednesday, April 5.
The "Chapter 22: Guns for Hire" episode stars the "About Damn Time" singer and the Tenacious D rocker as The Duchess and Captain Bombardier, respectively. The episode was written by Jon Favreau and directed by Bryce Dallas Howard.
When Pedro Pascal's titular Mandalorian searches for the former members of the Bo-Katan crew, he runs upon the wealthy couple (played by Katee Sackhoff).
But it's not just that: No other than Christopher Lloyd resides on Plazir-15 as Commissioner Helgait, the planet's security chief.
The trio of well-known guest stars even shared a scene with one another as they quarrelled about the political implications of droids.
The de facto mascot of the programme, Grogu, aka Baby Yoda, received a knighthood in a completely unrelated scene, which provided the Twittersphere an especially strong rush of the Force, er, endorphins.
One user tweeted, "'Baby Yoda gets knighted by Lizzo and Jack Black' was not on my 2023 bingo card," and another added, "I LOVE THEM," over the endearing video of The Duchess and Grogu waving goodbye., W. Earl Brown, Horatio Sanz, Adam Pally, John Leguizamo, and the cast of Olyphant's Deadwood.
Lizzo, Black, and Lloyd join a long list of well-known actors who have travelled to a galaxy far, far away for the science fiction series, including Jason Sudeikis, Taika Waititi, Timothy Olyphant, John Leguizamo, Adam Pally, Horatio Sanz, and Olyphant's Deadwood co-star W. Earl Brown. Disney+ has yet to reveal how the three surprise cameos came about.
