The Mandalorian producer Jon Favreau has revealed a familiar droid that will appear in the upcoming Disney+ show.
Revealed on Instagram, the droid is R5-D4, a red astromech droid featured in Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope. In this film, R5-D4 was shown after he had been captured by Jawas and encountered R2-D2. When the Jawas sell droids to Luke Skywalker and Uncle Owen, they initially choose C-3PO and R5-D4. However, R5-D4 malfunctions, which Luke chalks up to a “bad motivator,” and C-3PO convinces them to choose R2-D2 instead, ultimately setting off a path of getting Leia Organa’s message to Obi-Wan Kenobi.
