The Mandalorian Season 2 Trailer
The Mouse House synergy machine is in full swing again, as the company released a new look at Disney+‘sThe Mandalorianseason 2 during tonight’s broadcast of Monday Night Football on Disney-owned sports network ESPN. And once again, this tease is enough for this show’s sizable fandom to lose its collective mind. I’m in the rare minority of people who did not dig the storytelling decisions that showrunnerJon Favreauand his right-hand manDave Filonimade throughout season one, but hey, not every Star War has to be for me, and even the worst haters should be able to appreciate how incredible the show is on a visual level.
WhileStar Warspurists loved the stripped-down shape of season one’s story, it’s going to be very interesting to see how the show evolves as several elements from the animated shows are introduced this season. Will this influx of characters and lore (lots of it involving the Darksaber) be appealing to those who liked the “adventure of the week” structure of season one? Or will the inclusion of characters like Ahsoka Tano and Bo-Katan throw things too far off kilter? Perhaps the show built up enough good will in season one that fans are committed and locked in for any narrative decisions it makes, but I am exceedingly curious to see what the general consensus is on this show at the end of season 2.
The Mandalorianseason 2 will focus on the continuing adventures of bounty hunter Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and his new charge, The Child (otherwise known as Baby Yoda).Rosario Dawsonis playingAhsoka Tano,Temuera Morrisonis on board as notorious bounty hunterBoba Fett,Timothy Olyphantas likely playing a character named Cobb Vanth whowears Boba Fett’s famous armor,Katee Sackhoffis playingBo-Katan, andMichael Biehnhas joined the cast as some sort ofbounty hunter.Carl Weathersis reprising his role as Greef Karga, Gina Carano is back as former Stormtrooper Cara Dune, andGiancarlo Esposito’s villainous Moff Gideon continues his hunt for The Child, withDarksaberin hand.The Mandalorianseason 2arriveson Disney+ onOctober 30,2020.
