Overview

• Sackhoff disclosed on The Sackhoff Show that her live-action turn as Bo-Katan shattered her confidence and led to about three years of not booking on-camera work.
• She originated Bo-Katan as a voice role in 2012 and later portrayed the character in The Mandalorian’s second season before becoming a main cast member in season three.
• Describing her approach as instinct-driven, she said she could not identify with Bo-Katan’s motivations in live action and struggled with self-taped auditions afterward.
• She recounted screaming at her then-manager during the slump, later changing representation and hiring an acting coach to rebuild her confidence.
• Recent credits include voice work, a guest spot on Law & Order, and a role in Mike Flanagan’s upcoming Carrie series, while she has not been announced for the Mandalorian & Grogu film due in 2026.
