Community Virtual Table Read Adds Mandalorian Star Pedro Pascal

Community’s upcoming virtual table read will feature The Mandalorian star Pedro Pascal. Community, which told the story of a study group formed at a community college, originated on NBC. There, it aired five seasons and developed a small but passionate fan base. This was enough for the show to be saved by the now defunct service Yahoo! Screen, where it aired season 6, also its last. Though Community ended back in 2015, fans have been hoping for a reunion since then. They’ve been especially passionate about getting a movie made, as it would fufill the show’s longtime promise of “six seasons and a movie.”

Unlike with some concluded shows, a Community movie isn’t out of the realm of possibility. Star Joel McHale weighed in on the idea just last month, stating there are “way more rumblings than there used to be.” Director Joe Russo also shared he thinks a movie will happen eventually, even floating Netflix as a possible distributor. Though Joe and his brother Anthony are best known for their work in the MCU now, they directed dozens of episodes of Community over the years.

Though it isn’t a movie, last week, it was announced the cast of Community would reunite for a virtual table read and Q & A session, which will be streamed on Monday, May 18. The cast will answer questions submitted by fans, while also raising money for COVID-related charities. Dan Harmon, who created the show, provided an exciting update this week, revealing Pascal would be joining the event. Pascal will play a character originally played by Walton Goggins in “Cooperative Polygraphy,” the episode the cast will be reading. Harmon also revealed the cast filmed the table read ahead of its streaming later this month.

Today we Zoom a special reunion table read of the Community episode in which Pierce bestows frozen sperm from his grave. The incredible Walton Goggins can’t make it so Pedro Pascal will play Pierce’s lawyer. He’s on some Disney show where Boba Fett’s in college with Yoda’s niece. In keeping with that theme, the part of Troy will be played by Lando. Yes, for real, the whole gang is back together. We got Horse Girl, we got Card Shark, we got ‘em all. I don’t know the details of when it will be available, but don’t worry about missing it, we’re doing it for you. Also streaming it live could never happen because we have to edit out @yvettenicolebrown’s rants about storming Area 51. One more magical thing about today: the script we’re reading, Cooperative Polygraphy, is by Community and Rick and Morty alum Alex Rubens, who is BACK at RaM writing on season 6. He was wearing a suit in yesterday’s Zoom session because during lunch he was attending a Zoom funeral. Not a joke. Hard to tell jokes from life these days. These are odd times but everybody that worked on the show has been feeling the love and joy from all the rookie and veteran Community fans binging the show on Netflix. I’m going to go take the first pre-table read shower of my life. Sincere love to the fans and the cast, thanks for the best pre-Cody years of my life #sixseasonsandamovie

On The Mandalorian, Pascal plays the titular bounty hunter. The Star Wars series has been a massive success on Disney+, with season 2 on the way later this year. However, it won’t be the only major franchise Pascal will be a part of in 2020, as he’ll also appear in Wonder Woman 1984. In that movie, he’ll take on the role of Maxwell Lord, one the film’s villains. Pascal is an interesting choice for the Community table read as he never appeared in an episode, despite his extensive body of work.

Though fans of Community may be disappointed another performer is taking over for Goggins, it’s hard to be upset by Pascal. Not only is he a big name, especially right now, he also has a small connection to a member of the cast: both he and Donald Glover, who plays Troy Barnes, have appeared in the Star Wars franchise. However, they haven’t crossed paths, as Glover played a younger version of Lando in Solo: A Star Wars Story. Though fans still have another week until they get to see Community’s virtual table read, at least they know a big star will be present when they tune in.
