The Mandalorian returns for season 3 later this year.
Starring Pedro Pascal as the masked bounty hunter, The Mandalorian first premiered in 2019 alongside the launch of Disney+. A second season aired the following year while season 3 was confirmed at the end of 2020.
Set five years after the events of Star Wars: Return Of The Jedi, The Mandalorian explores a universe without The Empire as Pascal’s Din Djarin looks to protect the force-sensitive Grogu AKA Baby Yoda.
After separating at the end of season 2 so Grogu could learn the ways of the force with Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), The Mandalorian and Baby Yoda reunited during season 1 of Star Wars spin-off The Book Of Boba Fett.
A synopsis for season 3 of The Mandalorian reads: “The journeys of the Mandalorian through the Star Wars galaxy continue. Once a lone bounty hunter, Din Djarin has reunited with Grogu. Meanwhile, the New Republic struggles to lead the galaxy away from its dark history. The Mandalorian will cross paths with old allies and make new enemies as he and Grogu continue their journey together.”
