Mercedes Moné appeared in the second season of The Mandalorian as Koska Reeves.
While appearing at Megacon, Moné discussed joining the Star Wars franchise and how she managed to incorporate her wrestling persona into the role. She said,
“I really took a lot of myself and turned it up. I took a lot of my wrestling character, being a boss and a badass, and didn’t take no for an answer and that could stand up to any man that wanted to step in her way and take him down and throw a tornado DDT.”
“I wanted her to be who I am, just a badass and going in there with Katee, I had to step up my game because she is a legit badass.”
Moné didn’t reprise her role in the ongoing third season of the Disney+ series.
