With plenty of news and rumors, here is everything we know about The Mandalorian Season 2

October can’t come soon enough for fans of The Mandalorian. The second season of the hit TV series premieres that month with more adventures for Din Djarin and The Child (AKA Baby Yoda).

There have been so many rumors and leaks surrounding the second season, let’s take a look at what we  know about Season 2.

When does The Mandalorian Season 2 premiere?

The Mandalorian’s second season premieres in October on Disney+, but the exact date hasn’t been revealed yet. Similar to the first season, it’s likely to get a weekly release instead of all the episodes at once.

How else would Disney get keep people to stay on every month?

The Mandalorian Season 2: Who is returning?

It’s safe to say that Din Djarin (Pablo Pascal) and Baby Yoda will be back. Part of the story is how this clan of two was formed and what they will do next.

We also know Cara Dune (Gino Carrano) is back as she posted about it on her Instagram when filming wrapped. Moff Gideon (Giancarlo Esposito) is not sitting this one out either. He’s talked about some of his scenes on set so far, and with that Season 1 ending it would be entirely unfair not to get him back.

While I haven’t seen it confirmed anywhere, it would also be hard to think that Greef Karga (Carl Weathers) wouldn’t be back either. Cara stayed behind with him. So, it would make sense they would both be returning.

The Mandalorian Season 2: What is new?

This is where things get a little muddier. There have been extensive amount reports about what new characters and actors are going to appear in The Mandalorian Season 2.

The biggest news surrounds a live-action Ahsoka Tano played by Rosario Dawson. The thing to note is that has not been officially confirmed, however, it also hasn’t been denied even by Dawson when asked about it.

The likelihood of this happening is extremely high.

Other characters that are rumored to be in Season 2 include Boba Fett and Bo-Katan. These reports came from solid news outlets saying that Temuera Morrison, who is the face of every clone, and Katee Sackhoff will be playing these roles, respectively, in the upcoming season.

Timothy Olyphant is also reportedly in the second season as potentially Cobb Vanth, the sheriff who most likely found Boba Fett’s armor in the Tatooine desert.

In addition, actor Michael Biehn is also said to be part of the second season. Reportedly, he’s also a bounty hunter.

The Mandalorian Season 2: What is rumored?

One of the earliest rumors surrounding The Mandalorian Season 2 includes the casting of WWE’s Sasha Banks. There were reports from a couple of WWE news outlets, but nothing has been confirmed.

Jamie Lee Curtis has been another rumored name attached to the series. But there has been no confirmation from any parties as to this casting.
