Season two of “The Mandalorian” is nearly here, with the first episode set to debut on Disney Plus on October 30. Based on the usual Disney Plus update schedule, the season premiere should be available starting at 3 a.m. ET.
The first season of “The Mandalorian” was the most watched show in the world during its eight episode run, and recently earned seven Emmy awards. Pedro Pascal will return as the titular Mandalorian, a space-fighting bounty hunter tasked with protecting a small child whose special abilities could bring hope to the galaxy.
“The Mandalorian” has been praised for its tight, self-contained episodes and regularly evokes the spirit of classic Western and samurai genre films despite its sci-fi setting. As a nameless warrior, the Mandalorian uses his skills to earn a living, encountering new threats in each episode and constantly defending The Child from the evil forces of the Empire.
Executive Producer Jon Favreau told Variety that “The Mandalorian” has already been renewed for a third season. Former Disney CEO Bob Iger also said that more “Star Wars” series could be coming to Disney Plus based on characters from the show.
Few story details for “The Mandalorian” season two have been revealed, but Rosario Dawson will reportedly join the series as Ahsoka Tano, a Jedi introduced in “Star Wars: The Clone Wars,” and Temuera Morrison will appear on the show as the iconic bounty hunter Boba Fett.
