Mayfeld
Migs Mayfeld is a fictional character in the "Star Wars" franchise who appears in the Disney+ television series "The Mandalorian". He is a former Imperial sharpshooter turned mercenary who leads a crew in an attempt to rescue a prisoner from a New Republic prison transport ship. His team includes the show's protagonist, "The Mandalorian", with whom he repeatedly clashes and ultimately betrays. The Mandalorian outsmarts him, resulting in Mayfeld's arrest and imprisonment, though he is later released so that he can aid the Mandalorian's efforts to rescue Grogu. As a result, the character evolves from a minor antagonist to a viable ally of the Mandalorian, with whom he eventually makes amends during their mission. 

Mayfeld is portrayed by actor and comedian Bill Burr, who was not a fan of "Star Wars" and repeatedly mocked the franchise and its fans before he accepted the role. "The Mandalorian" creator Jon Favreau offered the part to Burr, believing his past criticism of the franchise would make his casting that much more amusing. Several reviewers have noted that Mayfeld's sardonic personality and hard-edged sense of humor is similar to Burr's real-life comedic style. Burr was extremely impressed with the filming of "The Mandalorian", complimenting the technical aspects of filming as well as the writing style of the series.

The character of Mayfeld received a generally positive response from reviewers, with many complimenting Burr's performance and the humor the character brought to the series. Reviewers critical of Mayfeld felt the character was flat, underdeveloped, or too incompetent as a mercenary. Mayfeld received a more positive response for his appearance in the second season episode "Chapter 15: The Believer", which explored his character in more depth. Burr received a significant amount of mock outrage from fans for a scene in "Chapter 6: The Prisoner", in which he dropped Grogu, the show's hugely popular breakout character.
