Maybe Cassian is about to die and is rescued by Baby Yoda.  Or it turns out that B2EMO was an Imperial spy all along.  Or (of course) Dedra is Cassian’s long lost sister and they run off together.

What would be the worst way to wrap up the season?” Brief reactions Breakdown   Speculation   All the other stuff you need to know: You can find more about all the stories we mentioned on today’s show at slashfilm.com, and linked inside the show notes. /Film Daily is published every weekday, bringing you the most exciting news from the world of movies and television as well as deeper dives into the great features from slashfilm.com.  You can subscribe to /Film Daily on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Overcast, Spotify and all the popular podcast apps (RSS).  And please subscribe to our newsletter!
