The Mandalorian Cast Call Season 3 Dark and Tumultuous; Pedro Pascal Says It Is Even Better Than Season 2

Many things were announced at Star Wars Celebration last month, and the panels gave the actors multiple opportunities to speak further about their characters. As reported by ET, when the cast assembled to speak at The Mandalorian panel they spoke a little bit about what to expect for season 3, both from their own characters and the general story.



Katee Sackhoff simply described the upcoming season, which is set to arrive on Disney Plus in February 2023, as 'dark', with Carl Weathers calling it 'fuller' with 'a lot more heft', explaining that 'It’s so dense with so much action but also, character.' Emily Swallow described the season's tone as 'tumultuous'.



Giancarlo Esposito said the scope of the episodes will only get bigger after The Mandalorian season 2 showed Din Djarin entering a larger world. '[It is] larger than ever… and it’s just an expansion, in many ways, of last season. It’s a season that has great ideas, great teasings and great tips for the future.'



Pedro Pascal didn't really give much away, simply claiming that 'Three is even better than the previous one. It’s safe to say that you’re going to love it.'







All of the above are fairly vague as far as spoiler-free statements go, but the actors did go into a bit more detail about where their characters are in The Mandalorian season 3, Esposito particularly, as he teases Moff Gideon being imprisoned.

Pedro Pascal talks about the growing relationship between Din and Grogu, as the latter continues to get more powerful and require less protection from his guardian.

If that seems to be teasing some character driven moments this season, then Carl Weathers seemingly confirms it. He enjoyed 'digging' deeper into the character of Greef Karga and others, presumably speaking about his time as director, saying that the new season offered time to slow things down and 'play with some of that stuff.'

Emily Swallow, who spoke at length about playing The Armorer recently, teases a character who seems to have a much more cooperative relationship with Din than the way it was left in The Book of Boba Fett, when she exiled him from the covert.

While Katee Sackhoff initially said 'I’m just excited to see what she’s up to' when talking about Bo-Katan, she did thankfully elaborate a bit further about what's in store for her.

It would seem Boba Fett will also be involved in season 3 in some capacity as well, as Temuera Morrison teased a return to the 'old' Boba Fett we know and love.

It sounds like The Mandalorian season 3 has a lot in store for us, and we'll find out exactly what that is in eight months when it arrives on Disney plus next February.
