As Skeleton Crew draws close to the finish line, the remaining episodes are guaranteed to be more exciting than anything else we've seen. There's a possibility of shocking twists and turns, and as so many Star Wars shows are set during the New Republic era, the door is open to major characters from other Mandoverse shows.
Here are 5 epic cameos that could appear in the remaining episodes of Skeleton Crew.
1. Fennec Shand and Boba Fett
We haven't seen Fennec Shand and Boba Fett since The Book of Boba Fett ended in 2022. Some fans held onto hope that the duo might show up in The Mandalorian Season 3, but that didn't materialize. However, with bounty hunters being mentioned and a bounty on Jod Na Nawood and the kids' heads, there's always a chance Fennec Shand or Boba Fett could appear in the series. Boba and Fennec have years of experience as bounty hunters, and they might know Jod. We'd love to see Boba and Fennec return in an upcoming episode of Skeleton Crew.
2. Hera Syndulla
As word reaches the New Republic about a mysterious planet, it may spread to General Hera Syndulla, who could take part in a mission with the Alpha Squadron to stage a rescue and save our young heroes. Although this one seems like a stretch because Hera has her hands full after Ezra Bridger probably informed her of Grand Admiral Thrawn's return, we'd still love to see Hera Syndulla again. As a mother, she'd want to ensure the kids made it home safely.
3. Carson Teva
Carson Teva has appeared in every Mandalorian-era series, with his most recent appearance coming in Ahsoka. We know Teva plays a pivotal role and is aware of the pirate activity on Nevarro. If he gets wind of Jod, Brutus, and the rest of the crew, he could appear to investigate what's happening in person. Teva's cameo would make complete sense and would be a nice way to connect all the Mandoverse shows without being too much of a distraction.
4. Hondo Ohnaka
A cameo by Hondo Ohnaka in Skeleton Crew is one that most fans had been hoping for. Not only is Ohnaka alive during this era, but his past as a pirate and an outlaw makes him the perfect fit for the series. Ohnaka's character arc is one of the best-written ones in Star Wars, and he has grown and evolved since his first appearance during The Clone Wars.
Though he's a rogue who can be greedy and has questionable motives, if he has to choose, Hondo would probably choose to save our young adventurers, especially if there's something in it for him. As a pirate with a sense of honor, it will be a big disappointment if Ohnaka doesn't appear in a show that features so many pirates.
5. Din Djarin
Unlike Carson Teva, Din Djarin hasn't appeared in all Mandoverse shows. As it's been over a year and a half since The Mandalorian Season 3 ended, we'd love to see Din Djarin again. His experience as a bounty hunter, coupled with his connections to Carson Teva and commitment to catching Imperial Remnant, can put him in the position to help our young heroes.
Who knows, perhaps Din Djarin's distrust in pirates is due to his past connections to Jod Na Nawood. We saw him warning Grogu not to trust pirates in Season 3, and there must be a backstory that justifies this mistrust. One thing's for sure, Din's cameo may be seen as fan service and controversial, but it is guaranteed to entertain and help the ratings. With another year and a half to go until The Mandalorian and Grogu hits theaters, it's probably a good idea to give Din the limelight again.
