The actor that played Iden Versio in Star Wars: Battlefront 2's single-player campaign has hinted at a potential role in The Mandalorian's second season. Janina Gavankar responded to a fan-made casting list for The Mandalorian's second season saying that fans would have to ask one of the main writers and directors of The Mandalorian, Dave Filoni, for more information.
While Star Wars: Battlefront 2 was hugely controversial upon its launch in 2017, its single-player campaign was very well received. At the time, it started a conversation about the need for more Star Wars single-player games. That's in part due to the impressive performance of Janina Gavankar as Iden Versio. It may even have been one of the reasons Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order was greenlit, even though the two games are largely unrelated.
Iden Versio is an Empire soldier at the start of the Star Wars: Battlefront 2 campaign. The game's story begins following the death of the Emperor at the end of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. Needless to say, Iden goes through an adventure befitting the fall of the Empire and becomes quite the hero in the process. She's an exciting character to play as and has a large part of her life left unexplored at the end of the Battlefront 2 campaign.
Fittingly, The Mandalorian also takes place after Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. The Mandalorian takes place about 5 years after the end of the film, which is a bit later than when Battlefront 2's campaign takes place. However, since Iden's story in Battlefront 2 ends before the events of The Mandalorian, it's absolutely possible for Mando to stumble into Iden on one job or another.
It bears repeating that there's no official confirmation that Janina Gavankar will reprise her role as Iden Versio in The Mandalorian Season 2. The tweet in question uses a fan-made casting list and isn't accurate. As such, her possible role is simply a matter of well-intentioned fan speculation and rumor. Still, if Gavankar is all for it then there's definitely a possibility.
Star Wars: Battlefront 2 is available now on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. The Mandalorian Season 2 premieres fall 2020 on the Disney+ streaming service.
