Alita: Battle Angel helmer Robert Rodriguez and Ant-Man helmer Peyton Reed have joined returning director Dave Filloni and show creator Jon Favreau, who also is directing an episode, for the project.
Olyphant seems to be a good fit for the gunslinging worlds in the Mandalorian series. The actor gained popularity for playing a sheriff in the much revered Western Deadwood and a tough lawman on Justified, an FX series that ran six seasons.
