Jon Favreau is directing this live-action TV series.

Looks TIGHT.

Quote:

Production on the first Star Wars live-action streaming series has begun!

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.

So is this going to drop all at once, or weekly like Discovery?

Weekly, 2 episodes in the first week however I believe.

Assuming it gets good reviews (from people a bit more objective than Clay

), I'll probably pay for a month and watch it when the season has concluded. I already pay for too much subscription stuff.

Kind of blows my mind that the final Skywalker saga movie in the SW universe is 6 weeks away, but this is what I want to see the most. Because the Mandalorian looks better in every conceivable way

Yep. And it's kind of sad, really. Episode IX should be the crescendo to decades of the greatest space saga ever told, but it feels like anything but.

In case you have 8:14 to listen to a breakdown of a 1:45 trailer.

Rogue One is one of my favorite movies of all the Star Wars movies.

kinda weird that the highlights of the trailer are i6-88 and bill burr. still, it looks much better than any of the Star Woke movies.

It's actually not IG-88, it's a different IG droid, IG-11, played by Taika Waititi. Supposedly a pretty interesting character, if I remember what I've read, sort of a child-like assassin droid who has no idea of the morality of what he does.

Hammock Parties · 11-06-2019, 05:43 PM

it's not like IG-88 was interesting at all, anyway

hell, neither was boba fett to be honest - very cool looking guy that had no story

they're taking the idea of what fans had in their heads for boba fett and IG-88 and making something way better

the vibe is exactly the same

Hammock Parties · 11-06-2019, 05:44 PM

i still want it to be boba tho

it sounds dumb on the surface level but it is actually kind of promising. childlike droids are a very Lucas-y concept. R2 threw tantrums and screamed while c3po was a overgrown Fauntleroy

So it premieres tomorrow and it hasn’t fully screen for critics. Why?

Some rumbling out there that it’s not that good or it has some sort of twist that’s going to piss Some fans off.

some think the Mandalorian is a woman in some weird twist. Rumors that Pedro Pascal is either the lover, the mentor, or the former dude who wore that armor and he's killed off the first episode or something.

Hmmmmm
