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.

I can't wait to see who that Force Beacon summoned through the Force.

It'll be interesting to see how the destruction of the Razor Crest affects the Mando on his journey because he'll no longer be off the grid.

And finally, we get to see why Boba Fett earned his reputation, which was about a million times more cool than Jango Fett, who was kind of a sloppy clutz.

Good lord, the Stormtrooper are just worthless. While I think it's cool, I'll never understand why Stormtrooper wear armor that is useless against a simple blaster. What's the point?

Now that Ahsoka and Mando have "reactivated" Grogu's Force Powers, will he be able to fend of Gideon and Dr. Pershing?

Maybe "someone" arrives at the last minute to free Grogu, which would be incredible.

Well, if Thrawn is actually out there somewhere, then it could be Ezra but I'm really hoping it's Luke.
