The Mandalorian, Disney+

This is a leak that was given to me about two weeks ago, and I'm told that Making Star Wars should report on it very soon. Essentially, Jon Favreau's show will be centered around Mandalore, two years after the Battle of Endor. I don't have any other information on it, however. I understand if this post is removed or if it's labeled fake, but I absolutely guarantee that this news will drop very soon.

From what I can ascertain, the show being about Mandalore makes sense, as 2019 will be exploring Mandalore in other areas: The Clone Wars is coming back, which may feature the Siege of Mandalore arc, and the newly announced Master and Apprentice book may touch on Obi-Wan's past with Satine. Just my own speculation, not related to leaks at all.

Again, I totally understand if you don't believe me, but I am being entirety truthful! I can provide a decent amount of proof to the mods.

@ISeeAnIsland

I think it may be true. It's the budget compared to Game of Trones which reminded me of something.

Mandalore's storyline was several times likened to GoT:
- By voice actor Vanessa Marshall (Hera in Rebels), "Star Wars Rebels Season 4 is Like 'Mandalorian Game of Thrones'"
https://screenrant.com/star-wars-rebels-season-4-game-thrones/

- By Dave Filoni who said that the Kyrze secret family tree that he has created is very much like Game of Thrones.
Here is the fun, the video is no more available, but this is the link if one of you know how to recover deleted youtube video.

(Or else, @spacebaby45678 and @TheBastardofMandalore , I found this video in your discussion in the Rey Kenobi thread, by any chance do you have saved it?)

I feel that Disney would want to use GoT popularity and sucess (like Amazon with Lord of the Rings or Netflix with the Witcher) to create their own GoT in Star Wars with Mandalore's culture.

I wouldn't count on it, we had to wait the end of shootings to know 'Solo' was the title, TFA and TLJ had finished most of their shootings before we knew their titles.
But maybe it's different for a TV serie. I wonder if they have a working title.

"... set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order". I wonder how soon we will get new "this character is Rey's mother/father" theories

I love the brown armor!

I’m wondering if this is going to be a character we’ve already met in the Star Wars universe or a all new character? Either way, I’m sure Jon, Dave and Kathleen have some fun surprises in store for us.

Well, I stand corrected.
Now I want to know more about the story.

Pedro Pascal is rumored to be a main character in the serie, maybe he is the lone gunfighter.

Yeah, Ron is often hit or miss for me, but I enjoyed Solo. I definetly need to check out her shorts to get a better sense of her style.

Agreed, that's definetly a man in the armor.

She directed shorts but I discovered it today, so I was also surprised as you. I have to point out we had already met her father on a SW.

Maybe she is talented, but I have no work to judge her on TV serie and I have the feeling she got the position thanks to her father (like Kasdan'son and Lucas' daughter on TCW). She is a woman director so it is also a positive point for Lucasfilm.

@rey09
Plot twist, Pedro Pascal is the Mandalorian but never take off his armour, so we never see his face and body. Millions of voices cry out in grief.

I am happy with this image and with the directors, and it is nice to have more information.
With this image I see a man for the Mandalorian, do you agree?
