*The Mandalorian season 3 spoilers ahead*
Mando and Baby Yoda may have ridden off together into the sunset, but they have big plans ahead of them...
The Mandalorian season 3 served as a catalyst for broadening the Disney+ series' scope to the story of Mandalore itself. After an epic battle that puts the Mandalorians on top, the season ends with Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and Grogu settling into the peaceful Nevarro, left to chart a path in the New Republic era.
If you're reeling from the finale and need to know what's next for The Mandalorian, this is the way.
Do we know if there is going to be a season 4 of The Mandalorian?
Movements in the Force say yes. In fact, The Mandalorian creator Jon Favreau confirmed as much. He told BFMTV that they already wrote the script: "We have to know where we’re going to tell a fully formed story." He continued: "We had mapped it out, Dave [Filoni] and I, and slowly you start to write each episode. I was writing it during post-production. All of it has to feel like a continuation and one full story."
Are there any details about when The Mandalorian season 4 is coming out?
Neither Disney nor LucasFilm has confirmed release date. Only one year lapsed between season 1 and season 2, with season 3 as the anomaly due to pandemic-related delays. Last season's episode schedule included a March 8, 2023 premiere with episodes dropping weekly. The finale hit streaming on April 19 to conclude season 3. It's likely that season 4 will also experience delays due the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
Is there going to be a The Mandalorian movie?
With only vague details attached, news broke at the Star Wars Celebrations 2023 that The Mandalorian producer Dave Filoni would create a film within the universe.
Speaking with IGN, he shied away from calling it a finale to the show. "I think of the time period now as the New Republic time period, and it's something that has existed long before we were ever making The Mandalorian," he told the outlet.
Dave went on to say: "The story also I think is... grown to a point that we want to expand a bit and do a little bit of a bigger thing than we've been doing on our streaming shows."
On a related note, the showrunners also hinted at the Star Wars universe growing à la Disney+ spin-offs. "There’s a lot more things that we’ve got to keep in mind and also stuff that we’ve built up to from previous seasons of The Mandalorian as well," Jon told BFMTV.
Set to the same timeline, the expansion recruits Rosario Dawson to front Ahsoka, who debuted in The Mandalorian season 3, while Jude Law leads the upcoming series Skeleton Crew.
Do we know who will be in The Mandalorian season 4 cast?
In season 3, Grogu and Din Djarin traveled together to his home planet Mandalore, which unlocked a plethora of potential. Nothing is confirmed, but here's who could potentially be included in The Mandalorian season 4 cast:
Pedro Pascal as Din Djarin
Grogu
Katee Sackhoff as Bo-Katan Kryze
Carl Weathers as Greef Karga
Emily Swallows as The Armorer
Amy Sedaris as Peli Motto
Katy M O'Brian as Elia Kane
Paul Sun-Hyung Lee as Carson Teva
Simon Kassianides as Axe Woves
Mercedes Varnado as Koska Reeves
Tim Meadows as Colonel Tuttle
On whether Pedro will return for The Mandalorian, the actor kept things quiet when speaking with RadioTimes. “It’s a mystery," he told the outlet. "There’s such preciousness around even saying that I’m signed up for season 4 if it’s already written."
The Last of Us star added: "I’m naturally a blabbermouth, but I really get protective of it because I get a thrill out of the surprises that are in store for the audience. And I don’t want the likes of you to ruin it for everybody by answering your questions."
What do we know about what might happen in The Mandalorian season 4?
Season 3's finale left the Mandalorians with the upper hand after Din Djarin and the Mandalorians reclaimed Mandalore from Giancarlo Esposito's Moff Gideon and the Imperial Remnants. The fate of Moff Gideon lies in uncertainty as he appeared to be consumed by flames in the season 3 finale, body unseen.
Taking his pseudo-dad status to another level, Din formally adopted Grogu and retired to Nevarro where he planned to take up Captain Carson Terva (Paul Sun-Hyung Lee) on his offer to run missions for the New Republic. That means hunting down other members of the Imperial Shadow Council one-by-one.
