Christopher Lloyd is coming to a galaxy far, far away as the legendary actor has joined the cast of The Mandalorian Season 3.
Lloyd, age 83, is best known for playing Dr. Emmett Brown in the Back to the Future franchise and is said to be playing an unknown role in the Star Wars series but it is said to be a guest-starring one.
Christopher Lloyd also played a Klingon in Star Trek III: Search for Spock and is known for a plethora of additional roles. Lately has seen the actor appear in Cyberchase, Next Stop, Christmas, The Tender Bar, Queen Bees, 12 Monkeys, and more, and his upcoming projects include Tankhouse, Super Athlete, Camp Hideout, Man & Witch, Tooned Out, and an untitled Lani Pixels project.
