The Mandalorian, also known as Star Wars: The Mandalorian, is an American space Western web television series created by Jon Favreau and released on Disney+. It is the first live action series in the Star Wars franchise. Set five years after the events of Return of the Jedi and 25 years prior to the events of The Force Awakens, it follows the title character, the Mandalorian bounty hunter Din Djarin, and his exploits beyond the reaches of the New Republic.

Favreau also serves as head writer and showrunner, as well as executive producer, alongside Dave Filoni, Kathleen Kennedy, and Colin Wilson. The Mandalorian premiered with the launch of Disney+ on November 12, 2019, with its eight-episode first season. The series has received positive reviews.

A second season has been ordered, which is set to premiere in October 2020.

Synopsis


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. The series depicts a lone bounty hunter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far from the authority of the New Republic.

Cast and characters


  • Pedro Pascal as Din Djarin / The Mandalorian, a lone gunfighter and bounty hunter who is sometimes referred to as "Mando" (a generic term used to refer to all Mandalorians, a clan of skilled warriors). He is a "foundling" who was rescued at a young age by Mandalorians during the Clone Wars. Pascal has described his character as Clint Eastwood–esque with advanced combat skills and of "questionable moral character".

  • "The Child" (performed by various puppeteers), a member of the same unnamed species as the powerful Jedi master Yoda with similar Force abilities. The Child is a toddler at age 50. A bounty is offered for his return by "The Client". He is found and protected by the Mandalorian while being targeted by other bounty hunters.
And as always have a chilled day from the Viking.
