The Mandalorian's Katee Sackhoff Can't Get Enough Of Fan Reactions To Bo-Katan
By ANDREW HOUSMAN
Katee Sackhoff’s portrayal of Bo-Katan Kryze has become a central part of Season 3 of “The Mandalorian,” rewarding fans who have followed the character since “The Clone Wars.” Sackhoff has consistently given depth to the role, voicing Bo-Katan in “The Clone Wars” and “Star Wars Rebels” before reprising the role in live-action.
Bo-Katan's arc, defined by her rise to and fall from the Mandalore throne, has gained fan admiration through Sackhoff’s performances. She appreciates the fans’ enthusiastic reactions to her character’s appearance: “I watched the fan reaction compilation that was put together of Bo showing up, and it just warmed my heart. I was so happy that she was so well received.”
Sackhoff has stated that transitioning from voice work to live-action has included its own challenges, but the positive response has proven that she has become synonymous with the character at this point. She now shares lead acting credits alongside Pedro Pascal, making “The Mandalorian” deservedly Sackhoff’s show as well.
