THE Mandalorian's leading man Pedro Pascal ‘stormed off set filming season 2 after a row over wearing Mando's helmet’.
The Game of Thrones actor plays the titular character in the Disney+ series, which returns for its second season next month.
However, insider Grace Randolph has now claimed Pedro, 45, became "difficult" on set while filming the new series.
His main bone of contention was reportedly his desire to have some scenes without his mask, which Mandalorian's don't take off in front of other people.
According to WeGotThisCovered, she claimed: "While filming Season 2 Pedro Pascal really wanted to have some scenes with his helmet off.
“The Mandalorian creative team wouldn’t budge on this. So Pedro Pascal, from what I’ve heard from two sources now, was frustrated about this and also was pretty darn uncomfortable in the Mando suit on set. So, he became difficult."
She continued: "And the final straw, even though he was difficult to be around on set, the final straw was that he went to Lucasfilm, from what I’ve heard from my sources, to try and get them to intervene on his behalf.
"And you combine that with Lucasfilm already trying to get involved with story aspects of Season 2, which I’ve also heard.
"Including focusing more on standalone episodes rather than making them more connected, which I’ve heard The Mandalorian creative team wanted to do, which was kind of happening at the end of Season 1.
"So, when Pedro Pascal went to Lucasfilm, the Mando team was like, ‘You know what, you should just go’. And Pedro Pascal did.
"And that happened halfway through filming. Now, as I said, I’ve heard the break up was pretty bad with both sides upset.”
However, Disney+, Pedro and show boss Jon Favreau have not commented on any on-set disagreements.
The Sun Online has contacted Disney+ for comment on the claims.
The Mandalorian season two premieres on Disney+ on October 30.
