And here’s a video of Pedro Pascal on stage, wearing Star Wars pyjamas and exclaiming that it’s an honor to be everyone’s favorite “space daddy”:

This drop of news will hopefully be followed by a public release of the trailer that was shown at the Disney APAC showcase earlier this week, which showed more of Bo-Katan and new glimpses of Mandalore. The show will likely overlap with season 2 of The Bad Batch for a while, since the animated show will run for 16 episodes, with a two-episode premiere on Disney Plus in early January if nothing changes.
Now we can begin the countdown until we next see Din Djarin and Grogu on our screens once more.
Josh is a huge Star Wars fan, who has spent far too much time wondering if any Star Wars character could defeat Thanos with all the Infinity Stones.
