Disney has announced that it will release a new documentary series covering the making of The Mandalorian on Disney Plus. With its first episode airing on Star Wars Day, May 4th. The new series will cover the production behind the eight-episode Star Wars spin-off.
As the first live-action series set in the Star Wars universe, The Mandalorian had quite the legacy to live up to. However, with the exception of a pair of weaker episodes, it succeeded, scoring an average 95% approval rating on review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes.
The series follows the adventures of a Mandalorian bounty hunter, known simply as Mando to most, played by Pedro Pascal of Game of Thrones fame. As a stoic lone gunfighter, Mando spends a lot of the series struggling with the demands of his conscience. A task complicated by the cut-throat underworld he inhabits, and the strict creed of the Mandalorian Way.
Disney has yet to reveal any information about the content of the new documentary, only its title of Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian. Despite this, it’s fair to assume that the documentary will take a behind-the-scenes look at the work of creator Jon Favreau and his team in the production of The Mandalorian’s first season. Meanwhile, filming of the Star Wars spin-off’s second season has already wrapped.
