Omg if they miss out on Timothy Olyphant to another show then that will be devastating. A great lead actor, widely adored outside the Star Wars fan base, seemingly adored already in the Star Wars fan base despite having only one appearance, and an easy-going guy with a great personality in real life. They’d be morons to pass up the opportunity to have him headline his own SW show. Put him opposite Bill Burr as co-leads in a kind of SW buddy cop show and they’d hit on a goldmine.
When you think about it Rangers of the New Republic still had so much potential, despite the removal of Gina Carano as lead. You could also throw a young re-cast Wedge Antilles and a live-action Hera Syndulla in there with Cobb Vanth and Mayfeld. Then there’s those New Republic pilots from Mando, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee and Dave somebody.
What would do better in the ratings, The Acolyte, a Finn spin-off show, or Rangers with Olyphant and Bill Burr?
