Sasha Banks is expanding her portfolio outside of wrestling and recently appeared in The Mandalorian where she played the role of Koska Reeves. During a recent Instagram interview with ProSieben MAXX She discussed how the director of the series noticed her and offered her the role.
“He watched me on Hot Ones. So, if you watched Hot Ones, I said that I’m a WWE Superstar. So he said he loved my personality on that and he wanted to write a role for me,” revealed Banks. “I was just honestly in such shock that I’m still, to this day, pinching myself that I was even in a Star Wars episode. It’s just so surreal. It’s so crazy, but it’s such an honor as well. If you have a dream, anything can happen. Let the universe guide you.”
This was Banks’ first credited role, and she was asked if she had to take acting lessons for The Mandalorian.
“I act every single week on SmackDown,” replied Banks. “I was acting every single week on Monday Night RAW. There’s nothing really to prepare for. When you work for the WWE, you have everything you need.”
