Werner Herzog on #TheMandalorian: “Now this is not a secret anymore, a small part, real small part, in “The Mandalorian” … I like to do it because I know I’m good on screen, but only if I have to play a real villain.” https://t.co/WrmHlZLuLS

You’re not the only one “gobsmacked” Cameron. I’m thrilled (& a little bit jealous) your #BionicHeroArm is much better & more sophisticated than the one Luke has. Hearing you say “It’s changed my life” is inspiring, but hearing “It gets me out of doing the dishes” made my day! https://t.co/eHk8O1PWF4
