Disney+ isn’t due to make it’s debut until later in the year but that hasn’t stopped director Jon Favreau from planning a second season of the upcoming Star Wars series The Mandalorian.
Speaking with Collider whilst promoting Disney’s The Lion King Favreau is quoted as saying:
“I keep getting pulled deeper into the orbit of Disney, but fortunately the stuff that Disney’s working on is the stuff that I love. I wanted to do a Star Wars TV show like The Mandalorian and pitched it to them and they were very open to it. I even wrote four episodes before I even was hired to do it because I was excited as a fan to see what these stories might be and see if they were interested in doing what I was interested in, which they were. And I was actually writing Season 2 this morning before I came here.”
The Mandalorian is the first of several planned Star Wars series set to premiere on Disney+ later in 2019.
