Ever since Disney+ hit the streets in 2019, The Mandalorian has been one of many key causes to have a subscription to the service. Of us love themselves some Pedro Pascal, notably when he’s defending a younger youngster like Grogu. And if it looks as if their adventures may go on perpetually, excellent news, Jon Favreau principally mentioned as such.

The co-creator of the hit Disney+ collection not too long ago spoke to Whole Movie to advertise the incoming third season. When requested about the present’s future, Favreau mentioned there’s no particular endgame in thoughts, and referred to as it “a center chapter of a a lot bigger story.” Whereas he promised decision for the characters all through the present’s run, he admitted that he’d “love for these tales to go on and on. And so these characters doubtlessly might be with us for some time.”

Favreau saying that Mandalorian is an element of a bigger story isn’t all that shocking to listen to. Between the Ahsoka present (headed up by him and Mandalorian co-creator Dave Filoni), Guide of Boba Fett, Skeleton Crew and that canceled Rangers of the New Republic present, it appears like Disney’s acquired some type of plan in thoughts for the TV characters. It wouldn’t be solely off-base to guess {that a} TV crossover is within the works that includes Din, Ahsoka, and whoever else remains to be round throughout that point interval in Star Wars.

In a separate interview with BFM TV, Favreau principally mentioned as a lot whereas speaking about writing The Mandalorian’s fourth season, saying it was meant to suit neatly into the bigger franchise plans with Ahsoka and Skeleton. “Dave Filoni and I, we had it mapped out,” he mentioned. “All of it has to really feel like a continuation and one full story. […] We’ve got to know the place we’re going to inform a fully-formed story, so we had mapped it out.”

Whether or not or not Mandalorian itself ought to proceed to only wing it’s up for debate. There comes some extent in each present the place it goes previous its promote by date, and it appears like that very a lot may occur with this present, until an actual establishment shift upends Din and Grogu’s lives. Or quite, a establishment shift that doesn’t get resolved in a utterly totally different present.
