EL SEGUNDO, CA — According to reports, filming on The Mandalorian Season 3 was delayed for days as one of the cast members, Lizzo, ate Baby Yoda.
"No Lizzo! Bad! Spit out Baby Yoda, Lizzo!" said director Bryce Dallas Howard as she attempted to pry the multi-million dollar animatronic green alien from Lizzo's jaws. "That will make you sick! Spit it out! Spit it out!"
Anonymous sources from the set later confirmed that the acclaimed flautist and rapper had been complaining all day, as the catering company had run out of food at 10 AM due to Lizzo eating it all. "I can't play The Duchess of Plazir-15 on an empty stomach, people!" Lizzo had bellowed to the production staff. "Someone get me a sandwich! Or a donut! Hey! Lemme see that green thing!"
Against the objections of the propmaster, Lizzo had taken the Grogu puppet and swallowed it before anyone could stop her. Sources say it took 12 people to wrestle her to the ground before they could attempt to recover it.
At publishing time, production was delayed even further as another cast member, Jack Black, insisted on filming an extended guitar solo.
