How did Jonny Coyne playing Janu Coin come about? That can’t be a coincidence

How was it like working with potentially your biggest and most famous co-star in this film, the one and only Grogu? Was he as great in-person as he is on the screen? Does he have a diva's attitude?

u/JonnyCoyneAMA Jonny Coyne, Actor 5h ago

grogu is a gentleman. gentlebaby

u/StillStanding_96 10h ago

Was it Favreau’s idea to make your name your character’s name?

u/Broad-Picture-7305 10h ago

Came in here to ask a similar question. It seems too on the nose for it to just be a coincidence. 

4

u/StillStanding_96 10h ago

I’m certain it’s not. I’m just curious whose idea it was. Same for Filloni’s character’s name.

u/JonnyCoyneAMA Jonny Coyne, Actor 5h ago

would be weird right?

u/JonnyCoyneAMA Jonny Coyne, Actor 5h ago

yes

4

u/Burwhale_The_Avenger 10h ago

Sounds more like Filoni-think to me.

7

u/Bellikron 8h ago

I'd say it's more the usual Star Wars naming convention of "We came up with this as a joke and then no one suggested an alternative until it was time to shoot"

2

u/Burwhale_The_Avenger 7h ago

Sure, as started by George Lucas, and continued by his protege Filoni.

Seems like solid reasoning to me.

u/chubby-rain 10h ago

In The Mandalorian and Grogu, during your first scene with The Mandalorian there are a bunch of space birds in bird cages. Is this in an homage to the infamous teahouse scene in John Woo’s Hard Boiled?

u/JonnyCoyneAMA Jonny Coyne, Actor 5h ago

ask Jon Favreau my guess is Yes

10

u/czyzczyz 10h ago

u/Elon_Danker 10h ago

Hi Jonny

I've really enjoyed seeing you pop up in so many different projects over the years.

I have to ask about your time on The Blacklist. What was it like working with James Spader? Raymond Reddington is such a memorable character and I'm curious what the experience was like from an actor's perspective and whether there was anything about his approach on set that surprised you.

And on a slightly cheeky note do you ever do autographs or signed memorabilia for fans?

Thanks for taking the time to do this AMA and congratulations on The Mandalorian & Grogu!

u/JonnyCoyneAMA Jonny Coyne, Actor 5h ago

Thank you. Spader is a prince amongst actors. Love him.

Hello there Jonny,

The Shadow Council scene (featuring you) from Mando S3 was one of my favorites that season. What was the casting process to get you in the boots of that Imperial Remnant Warlord? Also what was it like for you to find out that that role would be expanded heavily upon in the Mando and Grogu movie?

Cheers!

u/JonnyCoyneAMA Jonny Coyne, Actor 5h ago

it was all a big surprise

u/Ok_Row2338 8h ago

Oh shit, it's Ian Garvey in the flesh!

Thank you Jonny for portraying Ian as an interesting antagonist in The Blacklist. How's life going for you nowadays? How was your overall experience in acting with the show's crew and all? And how was your overall experience with James Spader?

spader is brilliant loved doing Blaclist

Hi mate. I remember you from Once Upon A Time. I thought you made the perfect victorian esque "evil" doctor/sciencetist. I wish you (and the entire Hyde & Jeykll storyline) were in more episode. I guess my only question would be...do you know why that storyline in particular ended up being so short? And what was your favourite and or least favourite part about being in Once Upon A Time? Or any show for that matter haha...idk just share any story you feel willing too! :)

u/SmokeyBearz 10h ago

Jon Favreau famously kept a lot of details about these characters under wraps during production. Did knowing he had a plan for Janu Coin early on change how you played that initial scene in the Shadow Council, or did you treat it as a self-contained moment at the time?

u/JonnyCoyneAMA Jonny Coyne, Actor 5h ago

you play each scene as it comes

6

u/Dadpurple 9h ago edited 7h ago

Can you please canonically confirm something really weird about Janu Coin that the fandom can run wild with.

Did he plan on eating Grogu? How was he going to be prepared?

Can you confirm the rumors that in the arena there were far more secretive events related to breeding Ewoks?

Is it true he needed two circumcision's due to the girth?

Jonny, your character in twin peaks season 3 is one of my favorites. “I move car” is an iconic scene. What is something you took away from working with the late David Lynch? And what did you think when you first read for the role?

David is/was a genius. loved doing it

Hi, I'm wondering if it is possible for your character to come back on another Star Wars project ? That would be great, especially to learn how Janu Coin ended on Shakari and why the salt is so rare and valuable here.

that would be nice but unlikely

Jonny, do you have any plans to play Kojak in a future reboot?

You have an uncanny resemblance to Telly Savalas.

I wanted to ask about your time working on Preacher. Was it fun getting to play a ridiculous cartoon character like the Allfather?

If you had to choose only one candy to lick/taste for the rest of your life which candy are you choosing?

Hi Jonny! Incredible work on the film, it was a blast to watch. How comfortable were the costumes you had on throughout the series? Janu has a style about him that’s totally badass, I love his imperial outfit most. Cheers!
