Cal would even be able to recognize The Child as the same species as Yoda, since he was studying to be a Jedi Knight at the time of Order 66. Surely Cal, now 23 years older than when we met him first, would be in a position to help out the bounty hunter. The end of The Mandalorian saw the title character aiming to find the "sorcerers" who hold the same powers of The Child.

The Sandcrawler Blog speculates Fallen Order 2 will follow Cal through the events of the original trilogy, narrowing the gap between the timelines.įrom a purely logistical point of view, it seems feasible that he could pop up in The Mandalorian: Monaghan's two long-running roles as Ian Gallagher on Shameless and Jerome Valeska on Gotham have just recently wrapped.įrom a canonical standpoint, it also makes perfect sense. However, according to a recent Kotaku report, Fallen Order is getting a sequel. The events of The Mandalorian occur around 9 ABY, meaning there's a 24-year gap between the two narratives. Jedi: Fallen Order begins five years after Order 66, known in the Star Wars fandom as 14 BBY (before the Battle of Yavin). Star Wars fansite The Sandcrawler Blog shared the theory earlier this month, explaining how the timelines connect. Respawn Entertainment / Entertainment Arts There's reason to suspect we'll be seeing the ginger-haired actor's recognizable face again, possibly even reprising his role as Cal in The Mandalorian Season 2. Cal was played by Gotham and Shameless actor Cameron Monaghan using motion capture à la Death Stranding. Unlike similar games in the genre, Fallen Order does not allow character customization, instead providing a single playable character: Cal Kestis, a Jedi padawan who's one of the few survivors of Order 66. Now, some intrepid Star Wars sleuths have come up with a pretty compelling idea for how the lead character may live on the rapidly expanding Star Wars universe, and it may include a live-action role. Late last year, EA and Respawn found wide acclaim with the action-adventure video game Jedi: Fallen Order. On Disney+, Clone Wars is airing its final season and the hit debut season of The Mandalorian provided a glimpse into a totally different aspect a galaxy far, far away. While the Skywalker Saga may be over, there's plenty of new Star Wars content in the pipeline to get excited about.
