Star Wars: The Mandalorian - Disney+.

I hope it launches here at the same time. Can't see why it won't be there's been a number of things with different release dates around the world already.

The first series didn't, so the second probably won't either, but I hope it does because strawberry float arbitrary release delays.

Well Disney+ didn't exist over here when season 1 came out so as that isn't the case any more with any luck we shouldn't have a problem... :dread:

Are they doing weekly episodes again or dropping the whole season on day 1?

While speaking to EW, Favreau shared that Lucas gave EP Dave Filoni a hard time while Filoni was directing an episode.

"He would be giving Dave a hard time about how many setups he was getting and how fast he was shooting and urging him to go faster," Favreau shared. "He was like a boxer's cornerman coaching him, but always with a twinkle in his eye."

Back during Lucas' days of directing Star Wars, he was known for telling the actors to be "faster" and "more intense," so it's no surprise to learn not much has changed all these decades later. In another recent interview with THR, Filoni spoke about Lucas' reaction to the series, sharing that the creator didn't give a lot of feedback.

"Not a tremendous amount. We talk about other stuff. When I talk with him, I like to get more knowledge. He'll give me some reminders, especially before I shoot something, about how many setups I should try to get in a day, and I might rack his brain for certain things about how to cover a scene," Filoni explained. "He's been very complimentary. I think he's enjoyed the show, and he said once [that] now he gets to watch it as a fan and watch it as a viewer. My job is to bring that knowledge forward and pass on what I've learned from him in every discipline to Jon and to the creative departments."

During the EW interview, executive Favreau and Filoni teased what fans can expect from the upcoming season.

"The new season is about introducing a larger story in the world," Favreau explained. "The stories become less isolated, yet each episode has its own flavor, and hopefully we’re bringing a lot more scope to the show." Adds Filoni, "Everything gets bigger, the stakes get higher, but also the personal story between the Child and the Mandalorian develops in a way I think people will enjoy."

Link.

Cautious optimism. Really looking forward to this.

I hope it doesn't become too serialised, I really enjoyed the first season having a new planet and story almost every episode and I think it fits the idea of a bounty hunter character. I don't really want Moff Gideon on their tail in every episode and the Mandalorian on a quest to learn more about the Child, just give me fun adventures every week.

Yeah I hope they don't stray too far from the episodic adventure of the week style. That's a large part of what made the first season so good.

It seems the same thing as Rebels. The first season had various adventures where you coud say not much was going on. Just a small scale weekly episodic adventure show. Then you get to the second season where things get larger in scale and scope as it enters into the grander scale of the Rebellion and the impacts of the Empire on the galaxy at large.

I think the second season of The Mandalorian will stay within those sorts of parameters, so there'd be a big set piece of action at the beginning, somewhere in the middle, and then the end, with the episodes in between bringing the regular array of adventures and world building that the first had.

Very well put, Rula. I think that's what they're looking to do.

A TV series about a futuristic bounty hunter that transitions from an episodic adventure show to a large scale story arc.

Didn't realise this was a live-action adaptation of Trigun!

The Mandalorian 2 trailer!

I feel let down

The real one:

looking forward to it

Looks good. If it was as good as Season 1 I'd be happy

I'm expecting good things. Didn't even realise that woman in the hood was Sasha Banks until someone else mentioned it :slol:

It looks so good. This show is making the prequels and squeals look rubbish.

Looks amazing, can’t wait.

X wings :shock:
