During the buildup to Season 2 of The Mandalorian, there was widespread talk on the internet that WWE star Sasha Banks had been cast as Sabine Wren, which obviously turned out to be wide of the mark. The professional wrestler’s role as Koska Reeves wasn’t particularly integral or pivotal to the narrative, but she was still a welcome addition to the ensemble.
Fans were receptive to her performance and happy to see her become a recurring figure in the Disney Plus Star Wars universe, even if there was the inevitable cancellation attempt, but the grappler could be teasing a return in The Book of Boba Fett, which was revealed to be premiering on December 29.
