Mandalorian
Mandalorians are fictional people associated with the planet Mandalore in the ''Star Wars'' universe and franchise created by George Lucas. Their most distinct cultural features are their battle helmets, chest armor, wrist gauntlets, and often jet packs, similar to those used by Boba Fett and his father/clone host, Jango Fett. First conceptualized for ''The Empire Strikes Back'' as a group of white-armored " supercommandos", the idea developed into a single bounty hunter character, Boba Fett. Although Fett was not identified as a Mandalorian in the film, his popularity inspired an extensive inquisition into Mandalorians in future ''Star Wars'' media, including novels, comics, television series, and video games. The ''Star Wars'' Expanded Universe and the television series '' The Clone Wars'', ''Rebels'', and ''The Mandalorian'' expanded upon Mandalorian lore with the introduction of additional characters, and established the Mandalorians not as an "alien race or species", but ...

The Mandalorian (character)
Din Djarin, nicknamed The Mandalorian, or Mando for short, is a fictional character in the '' Star Wars'' franchise, who appears as the titular protagonist of the Disney+ television series '' The Mandalorian'' and also appears in its spin-off '' The Book of Boba Fett''.

Sabine Wren
This incomplete list of characters from the '' Star Wars'' franchise contains only those which are considered part of the official ''Star Wars'' canon, as of the changes made by Lucasfilm in April 2014. Following its acquisition by The Walt Disney Company in 2012, Lucasfilm rebranded most of the novels, comics, video games and other works produced since the originating 1977 film '' Star Wars'' as ''Star Wars Legends'' and declared them non-canon to the rest of the franchise. As such, the list contains only information from the Skywalker Saga films, the 2008 animated TV series '' Star Wars: The Clone Wars'', and other films, shows, and video games published or produced after April 2014. The list is organized in humans and various alien species. No droid characters are included, so for those, see the list of ''Star Wars'' droid characters.

List Of Star Wars Planets And Moons
The fictional universe of the ''Star Wars'' franchise features multiple planets and moons. While only the feature films and selected other works are considered canon to the franchise since the 2012 acquisition of Lucasfilm by The Walt Disney Company, some canon planets were first named or explored in works from the non-canon ''Star Wars'' expanded universe, now rebranded ''Star Wars Legends''. In the theatrical ''Star Wars'' films, many scenes set on these planets and moons were filmed on location rather than on a sound stage. For example, the resort city of Canto Bight located on the planet Cantonica, seen in '' Star Wars: The Last Jedi'' (2017), was filmed in Dubrovnik, Croatia. ''Star Wars'' canon astrography The ''Star Wars'' galaxy contains several broad sub-regions. Their exact definitions fluctuated somewhat during the ''Legends'' continuity, but were later formally updated by the new canon continuity when Disney purchased Lucasfilm. The new canon map is br ...

Languages In Star Wars
The ''Star Wars'' space opera universe, created by George Lucas, features some dialogue spoken in fictional languages. The ''lingua franca'' of the franchise is known in-universe as "Galactic Basic", used to refer to the language of the film or work itself, be it English or a language that the work was dubbed or translated into. Characters often speak languages other than Basic, notably ''Shyriiwook'' spoken by Chewbacca and other Wookiees, ''droidspeak'' spoken by R2-D2 and BB-8, ''Ewokese'' spoken by Ewoks, and ''Huttese'' spoken by Jabba the Hutt. The fictional languages were approached as sound design and developed largely by Ben Burtt, sound designer for both the original and prequel trilogy of films. He created alien dialogue out of the sounds of primarily non-English languages, such as Quechua, Haya, and Tibetan. This methodology was also used in ''The Force Awakens'' by Sara Forsberg. Lucas also insisted that written text throughout the films look as dissimilar fr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
