You might be wondering about The Mandalorian season 4 after the surprise announcement that a movie is in the works. Star Wars has revealed that Mando and Grogu will be hitting the big screen, and, at the moment, it's unclear just what that means for the next installment of the hit Disney Plus TV show.
We're here to explain all, as well as keep you updated on everything we know so far about The Mandalorian season 4, should it go ahead. That includes our best guess at when we might see the new episodes, as well as the lowdown on what the plot might cover. So, if you're looking to get up to speed on the adventures of Din Djarin and Baby Yoda, look no further than the below. This is the Way!
Star Wars made the surprise announcement that a movie titled The Mandalorian & Grogu is in the works, going into production this year.
While nothing has been officially revealed just yet, Deadline reports that the movie won't be replacing season 4 of the show, meaning there are even more Mando and Grogu adventures to look forward to. But, complicating things is a newsletter from The Hollywood Reporter, which says season 4 is "definitely not a given."
Per THR, before the WGA writers' strike and SAG-AFTRA actors' strike, season 4 was written and ready to go. But, when the strikes stopped Hollywood in its tracks, Lucasfilm went back to its plans and switched things up to a Mando movie. "If the movie is a success, it could lead to [the] next phase of Mando storytelling becoming movie sequels. Box office and fan reaction would determine that," the newsletter says.
So, for now, we just don't know if The Mandalorian season 4 will happen or not.
We know next to nothing at this stage about The Mandalorian season 4 release date, should a new season be in the works. In February 2023, Jon Favreau confirmed that he’d mostly written it, which is a good clue that production wouldn't be too far away.
It does seem that The Mandalorian & Grogu movie will be out first, though, considering it's
