Watch Scorsese Make a Mean Sandwich in ‘The Mandalorian and Grogu’ | Anatomy of a Scene

About this video

When you run a food truck and have a lot of sandwiches to make, it helps to have four arms. That’s the case with the character Hugo Durant, who serves up a flat meat fry to Mando (Pedro Pascal) in this scene from “Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu.” If the name Hugo sounds as familiar as the sound of the character, that’s because he’s named after the movie “Hugo,” which was directed by Martin Scorsese, who lends his voice to the scene. Narrating the sequence, the “Mandalorian and Grogu” director Jon Favreau discusses how he and his team animated the character to Scorsese’s audio improv. About that flat meat fry: While it’s a fictional sandwich and is created with computer graphics here, Favreau worked with the chef Roy Choi (who also consulted on Favreau’s food-truck comedy “Chef”) to come up with a recipe for the sandwich. The ingredients include hairy egg, which is actually an Easter egg from the second episode of the first season of “The Mandalorian.” Order up!
