The show will also run all the way to March, by which time the next series, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, will premiere around that same month as well.

Check out the new TV Spot released for the show - which is called "Reality".

The Mandalorian Season 2 Promo Art is all kinds of EPIC AWESOME

 


It'll be a long wait until we see Mando and The Child again after the events of the epic Star Wars TV Series "The Mandalorian" and that awesome ending to Season 2, but of course because of that series we are getting more spin-off shows set in the Star Wars Universe, including the first direct spin-off from this show in "The Book of Boba Fett" this December.

To tide us over at least, Disney and Lucasfilm have commissioned Australian artist Mark Raats to make one awesome banner poster that highlights more or less most of the key highlights and characters of Season 2 - and here it is c/o the artist's Twitter.

The Book of Boba Fett will premiere on Disney + on December this year.

It's hard to believe that there was a time when Wonder Woman stood a chance of getting a brand new TV Series airing on NBC with Adrianne Palicki as the Amazon Warrior Princess, but it's even harder to believe that Maxwell Lord actor and "Wonder Woman 1984" star Pedro Pascal was actually a character in that unaired pilot... And the footage has resurfaced online courtesy of Reddit and posted on Comic Book Movie!



OTHER: TIL that Pedro Pascal was cast in an unaired Wonder Woman (2011) tv show produced by WBTV and DC entertainment for NBC. from r/DC_Cinematic

Pascal of course would go on to star in other bigger roles, including as Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones and Din Djardin aka Mando in The Mandalorian! How things come full circle!
