The series that proved Star Wars television could work, and set the visual template streaming has copied since.

About The Mandalorian

The Mandalorian was the first live-action Star Wars series, and it launched with Disney+ in 2019. Jon Favreau created it around a bounty hunter working the ungoverned edges of the galaxy in the years after the Empire fell, played by Pedro Pascal under a helmet he rarely takes off, and around the child he was sent to collect and chose to keep instead. Three seasons ran through 2023, and the virtual production stagecraft behind it was copied across the industry almost at once.

Lucasfilm moved the characters to theaters with The Mandalorian and Grogu, dated for May 2026, and a fourth season has never been formally ordered. Favreau said in 2023 that he had written one, and Disney has said nothing definite since. The date is still to be confirmed, if it happens at all. Anyone waiting on more television here should watch what the studio does after the film rather than expect a separate announcement.
