Before you get your fill of Baby Yoda in Episode 4 of Star Wars: The Mandalorian, or before you watch the chapter a second time, check out this terrific Thanksgiving Instagram post from series creator/writer Jon Favreau!
As you know, on set, Baby Yoda was a practical puppet, though for safety reasons, scenes with the adorable critter were shot twice (once without the physical Yoda) in case the puppet didn’t work and they needed to use CGI. It was a move that caused director Werner Herzog, who plays The Client on the series, to call the crew “cowards.”
