By Mary Anne ButlerJanuary 21, 20221 Min Read

This just in-

it would appear that Mary Elizabeth Winstead (“10 Cloverfield Lane,” “Birds of Prey“) is headed to a galaxy far, far away. Reports indicate she’s joining Disney+’s upcoming “Star Wars” adjacent series “Ahsoka.”

Fun fact- Winstead’s partner Ewan McGregor is ALSO in a “Star Wars” project. [Editor’s note: guys. this is a joke. We know he’s Obi Wan Kenobi.]

We know we say this every time there’s an awesome actress added to a Lucasfilm title, but hear us out: what if Mara Jade?!

Anyhow, this news was first reported by THR. No further details were available.

Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
