Because it didnt happen.

He was in rehearsals forKing Learon Broadway.

Instead, beneath the Mandalorian armor during production were stunt doubles and stand-ins.

The episode credits list two men Brendan Wayne and Lateef Crowder as Double - The Mandalorian.

Howard says she predominantly worked with Wayne.

We would go back and forth, Wayne said.

The great thing about him is hes not impressed with himself.

Hes just an actor.

And I mean that in the good way, not the bad way.

He likes to learn and he likes to collaborate and hes very good at it.

He wasnt evenoriginally credited for his voice workonA New HopeandThe Empire Strikes Back.

Howard compared the situation to her experience playing theme-park exec turned dino advocate Claire Dearing in the stunt-heavyJurassic Worldfilms.

You do, however, see Howards face onscreen during thoseJurassicfilms.

The character we see onscreen, from her perspective, is a real collaboration.

Everyone is really figuring out together,Who is this character?

What are these moments?

Whats the movement like?

Whats the energy like and the rhythm like?So that there was that consistency, she explained.

The end result: a character so mysterious, you cant even be sure whos playing him.

Vulture has reached out to Disney and representatives for Pascal for comment.
