We're all anxious to hear from the creative minds behind The Mandalorian after today's season 2 finale, but the likes of Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni have yet to comment on where things go from here.
We know that The Book of Boba Fett is coming to Disney+ next December, but whether that's in addition to, or instead of a season three, remains to be seen. For what it's worth, LRM Online have shared a rumour which claims that there are plans for another batch of episodes of The Mandalorian.
The Boba Fett spinoff, meanwhile, won't run for a full eight episodes according to the site. They also believe that The Mandalorian won't return until 2022, and that obviously gives Lucasfilm some time to figure out where to take the story next now Grogu is with Luke Skywalker and Din Djarin seemingly has no other choice than to battle Bo-Katan Kryze with the Darksaber on the line.
They add, "We were also told to stop thinking of The Mandalorian as one linear story. This may be where the story begins, but the overall story is not necessarily linear. The Book of Boba Fett is a chapter of that story, The Mandalorian Season 3 is another chapter, as is Ahsoka and Rangers of the New Republic. Hence, the Game of Thrones analogy our source originally used."
Jon Favreau has also teased a Game of Thrones-style approach to telling this far-reaching tale, so it's clear that there are some ambitious storytelling plans in this corner of a Galaxy Far, Far Away.
