After the stories of Jango and Boba Fett, another warrior emerges in the Star Wars universe. The Mandalorian is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order. We follow the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far from the authority of the New Republic.
The series will be written and executive produced by Emmy-nominated producer and actor Jon Favreau, as previously announced, with Dave Filoni (Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels) directing the first episode.
Additional episodic directors include Deborah Chow (Jessica Jones), Rick Famuyiwa (Dope), Bryce Dallas Howard (Solemates), and Taika Waititi (Thor: Ragnarok).
It will be executive produced by Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni, Kathleen Kennedy, and Colin Wilson. Karen Gilchrist will serve as co-executive producer. Stay tuned to StarWars.com for updates.

And he looks...vaguely like Daniel Logan...
Yeah....they're totally playing us. It's gonna actually be Boba Fett
God dammit. I don't want Fett. I want something new that isn't tied to anything so they have more room to explore and create something fun and unique. For everytime the name Skywalker comes up I am going to punch myself in the dick. [Reply]
The only negative - and this is a big one for me - is that Disney announced they're not following the Netflix binge release model for Disney+. New episodes of everything will be released weekly. So it's gonna take two months to watch this. I ****ing hate that.
But when I get Disney+, it'll be for this show. All the Marvel stuff is cool and all but this looks amazing. [Reply]
