Warning: spoilers ahead for The Mandalorian season 3 episode 6.
The newest episode of The Mandalorian provided one of the show’s greatest surprises yet, with megastars Lizzo and Jack Black suddenly appearing alongside Back To The Future icon Christopher Lloyd.
Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal), Bo-Katan Kryze (Katee Sackhoff), and Grogu met brand new characters The Duchess of Plazir-15 and Captain Bombardier, portrayed by the Juice vocalist and School of Rock actor, respectively, in Season 3 Episode 6 of the Star Wars series on Disney Plus.
Fans couldn’t believe their eyes when the pair showed on screen, dressed to the nines in opulent galaxy attire, and they’ve both addressed their appearances on social media with endearing photos.
Jack, 53, shared two pictures of himself with Lizzo, 34, on set, writing in the caption: ‘So fun working with @lizzobeeating on @themandalorian as the king and queen of Plazir-15!!!’
Bo-Katan star Katee, 42, responded to it by commenting: ‘This is the way,’ one of the most iconic lines from the series, while Tenacious D’s Kyle Gass added: ‘A match made in heaven.’

One fan stated that they were now hopeful for a music collaboration between the duo, while another stated: ‘The duo I didn’t know I needed but now that I have it I could never live without.’
Meanwhile, Lizzo revelled in the fact that she is now a part of the Star Wars series on her social media platforms.

She captioned a picture of herself encircled by Baby Yoda goods, including a cuddly toy she was clutching with both hands, ‘I’m in Star Wars YALL!’
The musician’s photo with all of the Grogus is especially fitting, considering she suited up as the character for Halloween in 2021.
Reacting to Lizzo’s cameo in The Mandalorian, one fan commented on Instagram: ‘THE WAY I SCREAMED!! You made my day😭 I have to cosplay it.’
‘Lizzo and Grogu.. the pair we didn’t no we needed,’ someone else said, while another wrote: ‘The gasp that came out of me when I saw you on screen 😩 my duchess 💖.’
The Mandalorian is available to watch on Disney Plus, with new episodes released on Wednesdays.
