Disney’s The Mandalorian could be described as a Western movie that takes place in space. It is well known that most actors use stunt doubles for the action scenes in movies, and that is no different from the Mandalorian series. What may surprise you, however, is that Pascal’s stunt double was none other than John Wayne’s grandson, Brendan Wayne.

This is not Brendan Wayne’s first experience with ‘space westerns’ as he is also credited with work in Jon Favreau’s Cowboys & Aliens. Wayne is an integral part of the production, as Pascal was completely absent from one of the episodes of The Mandalorian. Wayne worked in every episode of season one and is currently working as Pascal’s stunt double in season two.
