Pedro Pascal was arguably the first big star to emerge from Star Wars’ Disney+ era as he took on the role of Din Djarin in The Mandalorian, primarily providing the voice of the titular helmet-wearing character. Pascal has played Din since 2019, across three seasons of the series before making the jump to the big screen with The Mandalorian and Grogu. However, Disney+ is already bringing the beloved character back for another adventure, without Pedro Pascal.
Disney has confirmed that Gavin Hammon will replace Pascal as the voice of Din Djarin inLEGO Star Wars: The Mandalorian, which arrives on Disney+ today.The animated special will offer a comedic LEGO retelling of memorable moments from all three seasons of The Mandalorian, with Hammon providing the voice of its helmeted hero. What makes this particularly notable, though, is that Pascal seems to be the only member of the main cast who isn’t actually reprising their role from the television series. Katee Sackhoff (Battlestar Galactica), Emily Swallow (Supernatural), Ming-Na Wen (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), Rosario Dawson (Ahsoka), Temuera Morrison (The Book of Boba Fett), and Giancarlo Esposito(Breaking Bad) are all reprising their roles for the special.

01
You sense something is deeply wrong with the world around you. What do you do? The first instinct is often the truest one.

02
In a world of scarcity, what resource do you guard most fiercely? What we protect reveals what we believe survival actually requires.

03
What kind of threat keeps you up at night? Fear is useful data — if you’re honest about what you’re actually afraid of.

04
How do you deal with authority you don’t trust? Every dystopia has a power structure. Your approach to it determines everything.

05
Which environment could you actually endure long-term? Survival isn’t just tactical — it’s physical, psychological, and very much about where you are.

06
Who do you want in your corner when things fall apart? The company you keep is the clearest signal of who you actually are.

07
Where do you draw the line — if you draw one at all? Every survivor eventually faces a moment that tests what they’re actually made of.

08
What would actually make survival worth it? Staying alive is one thing. Having a reason to is another.

Your Fate Has Been Calculated You’d Survive In…
Your answers point to the world your instincts were built for. This is the universe your temperament, your survival instincts, and your particular brand of stubbornness were made for.

The Resistance, Zion
The Matrix
You took the red pill a long time ago — probably before anyone offered it to you. You’re a systems thinker who can’t help but notice the seams in things.
You’re drawn to understanding how the system works before figuring out how to break it.
You’d find the Resistance, or it would find you — your instinct for spotting constructed realities is the machines’ worst nightmare.
You function best when you have access to information and the freedom to act on it.
The Matrix built an airtight prison. You’d be the one probing the walls for the door.

The Wasteland
Mad Max
The wasteland doesn’t reward the clever or the well-connected — it rewards those who are hard to kill and harder to break. That’s you.
You don’t need comfort, community, or a cause larger than the next horizon.
You need a vehicle, a clear threat, and enough fuel to outrun it — and you’re good at all three.
You are unsentimental enough to survive that world, and decent enough — just barely — to be something more than another raider.
In the wasteland, that distinction is everything.

Los Angeles, 2049
Blade Runner
You’d survive here because you know how to exist in moral grey areas without losing yourself completely.
You read people accurately, keep your circle small, and ask the questions others prefer not to answer.
In a city where humanity is a legal designation rather than a feeling, you hold onto something that keeps you functional.
You’re not a hero. But you’re not lost, either.
In Blade Runner’s world, that distinction is everything.

Arrakis
Dune
Arrakis is the most hostile environment in the known universe — and you are precisely the kind of person it rewards.
Patience, discipline, and political awareness are your core strengths — and on Arrakis, they’re survival tools.
You understand that the long game matters more than any single victory.
Others come to Dune and are consumed by it. You’d learn its logic and earn its respect.
In time, you wouldn’t just survive Arrakis — you’d begin to reshape it.

A Galaxy Far, Far Away
Star Wars
The galaxy far, far away is vast, loud, and in a constant state of violent political upheaval — and you wouldn’t have it any other way.
You find meaning in being part of something larger than yourself — a cause, a crew, a rebellion.
You’d gravitate toward the Rebellion, or the fringes, or whatever pocket of the galaxy still believes the Empire’s grip can be broken.
You fight — not because you have to, but because standing aside isn’t something you’re capable of.
In Star Wars, that willingness is what makes all the difference.

Does Pedro Pascal Still Want to Play The Mandalorian?
Hammon taking over the LEGO version of Din Djarin doesn’t mean Pascal has finished playing the character in live action. During the press tour for The Mandalorian and Grogu press tour earlier this year, Pascal made it clear that he was willing to continue for as long as audiences wanted him: “You know, age is a real thing… Whatever my body can do, and however long people want to experience these stories with these characters, is how long I want it to last.”

Pascal separately said that he hoped there would be a “next chapter” for Din and Grogu, arguing that there was still plenty of potential left in the characters and the corner of the Star Wars universe created by Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni. His absence from the LEGO special also isn’t entirely unprecedented for the character. During The Mandalorian, stunt performers Brendan Wayne and Lateef Crowder regularly wore Din Djarin’s armor for action sequences and when Pascal wasn’t physically available, with Pascal providing the character’s voice.
LEGO Star Wars: The Mandalorian and The Mandalorian and Grogu arrive on Disney+ today. Stay tuned at Collider for more.
