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.
Awesome episode ... one question is I wonder who is the person with the noisy boots that walked to the dead Hunter a few episodes back? Did I miss something?
That's one of the things I'm wanting to dig into on re-watch. That closing scene is there for a reason, and that character, whoever it is, probably appears somewhere earlier in the episode.
I want to figure out who the Armorer is, too. I saw Death Watch insignia when young Din was rescued, and the character that Favreau voiced was listed in the credits as a Visla. So the Tribe is connected to some big names from Clone Wars and Rebels.
Going to be fun seeing where this whole thing goes, whether The Mandalorian ends up uniting the remnants of the whole culture.
My question is where the bit about never removing the helmet comes from. Because Mandalorians we saw in Cline Wars and Rebels had their helmets off as much as they have them on. So maybe The Tribe is an older, more primitive or traditional cult. [Reply]

Wonder if they'd go Bobo Fett? Idk..he has boots like the right? I just started clone wars series as well. I saw there is a chronological order on the net I should watch it in rather than the release order on d+. Going to fire up Rebels after that. I've heard that dark saber was in that series?
I hope they talk more about the mandolrian helmet rule too. That leader was a badass too... hopefully she made it.
Curious where this baby Yoda story will go. [Reply]

Right, casual fans like the name and baby Yoda but dont realize its not the baby Yoda from the movies.
Do we even know if he's just a member of Yoda's race, something similar or a clone?
Also, Disney is saying they know the name of Baby Yoda but withheld it for suspense purposes. I call BS. Disney had no clue Baby Yoda was going to blow up like this or they would have flooded the Christmas market with Baby Yoda merchandise. [Reply]

He plays such a central role I think they knew exactly what they had. Or at least knew what they wanted from him. The decision to forego insane holiday sales is a little curious, though. [Reply]

As far as I understand it, the Mandalorians are not a race. [Reply]
