In an interview with Empire, Pedro Pascal talked about "The Mandalorian" in anticipation of Season 3 soon coming to Disney+. There was a wide range of topics, but one we wanted to draw attention to was his talking about the experience of putting on the iconic Beskar armor.
"It's like putting on a head-to-toe glove with weights on it," Pascal said. "It's ironic that you can't see any facial expression because it puts you in the world so completely, and instantly makes the character feel real — but you can't see s***!"
Pascal went on to say that the crew has made improvements to the armor so that it's more comfortable, but that it still nearly blinds him whenever he puts it on. As we can see in the show, there's only a narrow slit the actor can see through, completely cutting off his peripheral vision. To make matters worse, his breath will often fog up the only part of the helmet he can look through, making his vision even more limited.
"The Mandalorian" Season 3 premieres exclusively on Disney+ on March 1.
