Mark Hamill’s appearance as the de-aged Luke Skywalker in the season 2 finale of The Mandalorian made fans ecstatic. His appearance in the show helped make a great finale even more amazing. Also, it helped connect the series to the wider Star Wars universe more broadly.

But as expected, fans had a lot of questions about the cameo appearance, and most of them were about the digital de-aging technique.

So Disney+ announced a while back that they would stream a Gallery episode that would explain how the collaboration with Mark Hamill as well as the digital de-aging was accomplished.

Now, a Disney+ August trailer has been released that gives viewers a glimpse of what they can expect from the Gallery episode that’s set to explore the cameo in better detail. Here we explore the information given in the trailer.

The Gallery episode will also reveal the CGI and digital ways Hamill contributed to Luke’s final appearance in the finale. As such, altogether it should be really fascinating to see how the episode came together.

Since fans thought that they had seen the last of Hamill in Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker, so his surprise cameo appearance in The Mandalorian generated a lot of excitement.

However, it’s not yet known whether he will ever return again. But Grogu left with Luke at the end of the season 2 finale to complete his Jedi training, so it’s not totally out of the question. Right now, The Mandalorian has begun production of season 3. And it is slated for a Spring 2022 release.

The Disney+ Gallery episode will arrive on August 25. And it will unveil all the secrets of the season 2 finale episode. Be sure to check that out.
