The penultimate episode of
The Mandalorian season 1 was originally supposed to hit Disney+ on Friday, December 20th, but we're now hearing that the still untitled "Chapter 7" will premiere a couple of days earlier on Wednesday the 19th.
Why the change? Well, the episode will reportedly feature a sneak peek from
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. We have no idea what this will entail, but chances are it'll just be a new clip from the movie that airs before the end credits roll. There's a lot of speculation that the events of the show will ultimately tie-into the final installment of the Skywalker Saga, but that obviously remains to be seen.
For now, we do have brief synopses for the final two chapters, which offer some vague clues about what to expect.
Episode 7 — An old rival extends an invitation for The Mandalorian to make peace.
Episode 8 — The Mandalorian comes face-to-face with an unexpected enemy.
