Season two of The Mandalorian ended with Din Djarin and Grogu parting ways as the mysterious creature was taken by Luke Skywalker, presumably to be trained as a Jedi (leaving us all incredibly stressed at the notion he may have been among those killed by Kylo Ren and the Knights of Ren).
There's still plenty of story to tell as we head into season three, though, especially as it appears we're going to see a battle for the Darksaber and some sort of return to Mandalore.
Unfortunately, The Mandalorian won't return to Disney+ this year, with The Book of Boba Fett taking its place. As a result, we likely won't get to pick up with this story until sometime in 2022, and despite rumours that shooting was underway back in April, it appears production hasn't even started yet.
During a recent conversation with Obi-Wan Kenobi star Ewan McGregor for Variety's Actors on Actors video series, Pedro Pascal revealed, "We haven't shot a third season."
Hopefully, this doesn't mean there are any issues or reasons for the delay, but if the plan is for The Mandalorian to return to its October/November slot on Disney+, there's obviously still plenty of time to film the series. As always, we'll keep you updated as we learn more about Lucasfilm's plans!
