The fact that Robert Downey Jr could make it to Star Wars, has given rise to a high level of promotion. The saga had great moments of absolute success, as well as some failures. But after these last two years, because of the series, The Mandalorian, Star Wars seems to be in one of the most promising junctures in its entire history.
Focusing primarily on The Mandalorian, the mentioning of Grand Admiral Thrawn sparked a lot of hype from fans who strongly desire to see him in live-action form. After several rumors, a name has been highlighted that could eventually bring Thrawn to life. That name is Robert Downey Jr.
It is known that Jon Favreau and Robert Downey Jr have an excellent relationship, and more than once have sought to work together after Ironman. This circumstance would validate the report that scooper Daniel Richtman brought to light. It talks about the possible inclusion of Downey Jr to the Star Wars universe. According to Daniel, the actor is in serious talks to be part of the Star Wars universe.
The reality is, it seems that Favreau and Filoni are looking to bring in renowned actors for their projects. And so, the name of Robert Downey Jr has been sounding for a long time. According to the report, the role that Robert Downey Jr will have in Star Wars is something completely different from what we saw him do in the MCU. Perhaps, it will completely change the way fans view the actor, and surprisingly, it is the role of Admiral Thrawn.
If this report comes to fruition, we could be witnessing a very large paradigm shift in entertainment. The fact that first-rate actors are being hired, could mean that streaming projects are becoming the most important form of entertainment. Not only because of the commitment and successful series are having and, but also because of the conditions which the pandemic has forced upon us.
