Who directed Chapter 11: The Heiress?

The story behind the answer

Bryce Dallas Howard directed “Chapter 11: The Heiress” of The Mandalorian. The episode is the third installment of season two and was released on Disney+ on November 13, 2020.

Howard’s episode follows Din Djarin’s arrival on Trask after the damaged Razor Crest struggles through atmospheric entry. The story then introduces live-action versions of important Mandalorian characters, including Bo-Katan Kryze, Koska Reeves, and Axe Woves. It also expands the series’ ideas about Mandalorian identity by contrasting Djarin’s strict helmet rule with Bo-Katan’s more open practice.

Howard is also an actor, known for films such as Jurassic World and The Village, and is the daughter of filmmaker Ron Howard. The Mandalorian marked an important part of her directing career. She also directed season-one’s “Chapter 4: Sanctuary,” as well as later episodes of the series and an episode of The Book of Boba Fett.

The main confusion is with Deborah Chow, who directed “Chapter 3: The Sin” and “Chapter 7: The Reckoning.” Rachel Morrison directed “Chapter 7,” while Lee Isaac Chung directed the later episode “Chapter 19: The Convert.”
