Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni's endgame for The Mandalorian remains a mystery, but the show's success has seen this post-Return of the Jedi era of storytelling rapidly expand. Skeleton Crew will be part of that, as will Ahsoka; meanwhile, other shows - such as The Book of Boba Fett - have reunited us with some familiar faces and expanded on that period.
It's an exciting time to be a Star Wars fan, but when the time comes for The Mandalorian to end, what will that look like? We've frequently heard about possible movie plans, and star Pedro Pascal doubled down on that during a recent interview at D23 (via SFFGazette.com).
Executive producer Rick Famuyiwa was also on hand, and he started by denying having any knowledge of big screen plans for The Mandalorian. "You're coming at us hard. Yeah, that's something I don't know anything about." Pascal then chimed in to say, "I'll answer for him. Yes, he wants to."
"Yes, he wants to, and that's a great idea," the actor continued, "and if it isn't a conversation already, then it will be after today."
Pascal previously said a movie was "inevitable," and we have a feeling this will probably happen. It might be released on Disney+ rather than in theaters, though we have to believe moviegoers would be more than happy parting with their money to watch a story about Din Djarin and Grogu on the big screen.
Those involved with The Mandalorian seem keen, anyway, though we do hope there aren't plans to wrap this series up quite yet. There's still lots of storytelling potential in this corner of the Galaxy Far, Far Away, and with the worst of the pandemic behind us, we're hoping the show can get back to a yearly release schedule for the show.
