Sasha Banks has revealed how she managed to land a role in The Mandalorian and how it felt stepping out onto the set for the very first time.

Earlier this year, it was revealed to the world that Sasha Banks would be a part of the second season of The Mandalorian. That information was revealed when The Boss made an unexpected cameo in the show's trailer. The role she would play was not revealed though, and Banks's lips were sealed when it came to divulging anything more about who she will be in the show.

That finally changed last week when episode three of The Mandalorian's second season debuted on Disney+. It was the first episode to feature Banks who is playing a Mandalorian named Koska Reeves. Look away now if you're yet to watch the latest episode as there are spoilers dead ahead. Banks' first order of business was to rescue The Child, aka Baby Yoda, from the jaws of a gruesome sea monster.

Banks recently sat down with Variety and explained how she managed to land the role of Reeves in The Mandalorian. No offense to the SmackDown Women's Champion, but it's an incredibly big role for someone who has no acting experience outside of the wrestling business. Turns out it wasn't even her chops in the ring that first landed The Boss on show creator Jon Favreau's radar.

Instead, it was Banks's performance on internet chat show, Hot Ones. "[Favreau] watched an interview that I did with Hot Ones and he really liked me and got my contact information. Then on FaceTime, he asked me to be part of The Mandalorian," Banks revealed. Just goes to show that you never know who's watching and how a performance, even in an interview where you're being yourself, might impact your career.

As for what it was like on set, Banks claims it really was like stepping out into another galaxy. She also admits to being very shy and nervous during shooting but was told by Favreau that he had seen her performing in WWE so knew she'd be fine. A huge career opportunity for Banks and we're hoping to see more of her throughout the rest of season two and beyond.
