Baby Yoda is coming back in our lives sooner than we thought. The Mandalorian season 2 is coming back on Friday, October 30 2020. What is in store for the Mandalorian season 2 and the Child, commonly referred to as Baby Yoda
The Mandalorian season 2
The Mandalorian Season 2 has big plans for the new adventures in the second season. New castmembers are added and one of them is a Jedi. You know, like your father before you.
The Jedi in question is Ashoka Tano, played by none other than Rosario Dawson. Dawson is famous for playing a pivotal role in the recent Marvel Netflix series as Claire Temple where she gathered the heroes Luke Cage, Daredevil, Jessica Jones and the Iron Fist.
Katee Sackhoff of Battlestar Galactica fame will also join in the Mandalorian season 2 fun. Sackhoff will play Bo-Katan Kryze.
Bo-Katan Kryze was a Mandalorian human female who was the leader of the Nite Owls and a lieutenant in Death Watch, a terrorist group, and later during the Imperial Era, became Mand’alor as told by Wookiepedia.
Furthermore Terminator star Michael Biehn will play a bounty hunter. Which sounds interesting.
And last but not least, The Mandalorian will see Temuera Morrison star in the series too. I wonder who he will be cast as. The show takes place after Attack of the Clones and Jango Fett died at the hands of Mace Windu in the movie. And it got me thinking that maybe, just maybe he will take on the role of Boba Fett or a Clone gone mad and turning into something else.
Oh but I almost forgot, we will have a gunslinger coming to the Star Wars Universe as well. He will be played by Timothy Olyphant although it is in an undisclosed role for now.
A gunslinger would be very interesting to see. We saw bounty hunters with singular guns and two guns. Now we will get to see a gunslinger, I wonder what that will look like. I am hoping it is a grim version of Han Solo but with two guns and no Wookie. Sorry guys, I am just hoping that while the Mandalorian hops from planet to planet that he will one day just get to Kashyyk.
List of directors
The Mandalorian Season 2 ’s directors include Dave Filoni (who helmed the Mandalorian pilot and Season 1’s “The Gunslinger”), Rick Famuyiwa (who directed Season 1’s “The Child” and “The Prisoner”), cast member Carl Weathers, series EP Jon Favreau, Robert Rodriguez (El Mariachi, Sin City) and Peyton Reed (Ant-Man).
Season 3 pre production has already started and even though we haven’t seen a season 3 renewal at all yet from Disney+, ofcourse we hope that it will be the case. Just take my money already!
Things I would like to see in season 2
After watching season one, I really hope that Ashoka Tano will be the guiding light for Baby Yoda. Maybe she will bring balance to the Force by training the youngling.
I also hope that we will get to see some Sith temples and Jedi Temples. They looked amazing in the movies so why not. But then again, The Mandalorian universe seems a bit dystopian. But if there is Empire, then where are the Rebels? Does anyone know?
I would love to see the Mandalorian fight without his helmet spouting “This is the way!” All kidding aside, how about a good dogfight in space? Sounds amazing.
More Empire hunting down the Mandalorian and do what Darth Vader did, hire bounty hunters to hunt down the bounty hunter. This is the way!
I would also love to see Kuiil the Ugnaught come back. I know he got killed but I would love to see him in flashbacks of Baby Yoda or something. Same goes for IG-11. Maybe have an upgrade and call it IG-12.
An even better idea would be the bring in the HK droids from the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic series. The HK droids are assassin droids who kill with extreme prejudice. It would be awesome in my opinion to have them in a live action series.
The Mandalorian season 2 needs to be underway real soon!
