Hello ladies and gents this is the Viking telling you that today we are talking about
The Mandalorian season 3: Everything we know about the Disney Plus Star Wars show's future
The live action show's second season ended in December, but it set up a whole bunch of spinoffs and paved the way for its third season.
The Mandalorian, the live-action Star Wars series that introduced Baby Yoda, brought back Boba Fett and saw the return of a certain Jedi make his return, ended its second season in December. The Disney Plus show isn't over yet though, and set up several spinoffs that'll expand this corner of a galaxy far, far away.
Let's take a look at where Mando's adventures, which takes place a few years after Return of the Jedi, are likely to go next. We'll be diving into full SPOILER territory for the first two seasons, so be warned if you aren't up to date.
What we know about season 3
The second season ended with a post-credits scene teasing The Book of Boba Fett, which hits Disney Plus in December 2021. It was initially unclear if this was season 3, with the focus shifting to the bounty hunter, or a spinoff. Jon Favreau, the show's creator, soon clarified that it was spinoff (more on that below) -- Mando's adventures will continue in the third season.
We don't have a release date for the next season yet, but The Book of Boba Fett reportedly began in November and Favreau noted that production on season 3 of The Mandalorian will start after the spinoff is done. It'll probably come out in 2022.
Since season 2 seemed to wrap up the Baby Yoda plot line, with Luke Skywalker taking Grogu for Jedi training, you might wonder where the show can go next. Mando's mission -- reuniting the little guy with his own kind -- is done, so his priorities will shift.
During season 2, Mando (real name Din Djarin) also ran into another group of Mandalorians, led by Bo-Katan Kryze. She was on a mission to retake their home world Mandalore and get the Darksaber (a Mandalorian symbol of leadership) back from Imperial Moff Gideon. In the season finale, Mando took possession of the Darksaber and inadvertently became the leader of the Mandalorians -- it seems likely that he'll join Bo-Katan's mission in season 3.
We also found out that Mando isn't a typical Mandalorian. Bo-Katan revealed that he's a Child of the Watch, a "cult of religious zealots that broke away from Mandalorian society." That's why he isn't supposed to remove his helmet and reveal his face to anyone, but he's gradually become more open to showing his face during the first two seasons. We haven't seen other members of his clan since season 1, but he'll probably have some questions next time their paths cross.
Disney also announced three of its many upcoming Star Wars shows -- The Book of Boba Fett, Ahsoka and Rangers of the New Republic -- that'll set around the same point in the timeline as The Mandalorian, so plot threads from the those could feed into season 3 (or some future season).
I don't know about you but im looking forward to watching them all in what i will call the Mandoverse and as always have a chilled day from the Viking
