The Mandalorian, will chronicle the 'lone-wolf odyssey of a character who hails from the planet Mandalore,' reported Deadline. 

Devotees of the George Lucas franchise will recognize the Mandalorian warriors and bounty hunters by their signature armor which was worn by the most famous Mandalorian, Boba Fett.

Jon Favreau is executive producing and writing the series, which is set after the fall of the Empire.

Favreau's previous work includes acting in hits such as Swingers and producing the blockbuster Avengers movies. 

Last month he took to Instagram with a brief message about the plot of the live-action series.

'After the stories of Jango and Boba Fett, another warrior emerges in the Star Wars universe,' Favreau penned. 

The producer continued: 'The Mandalorian is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order.'

He then dropped a hint about The Mandalorian's lead character, who will presumably be plaid by Pascal.

'We follow the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far from the authority of the New Republic,' Favreau said on Instagram.  

The show is set to premiere on Disney's streaming service Disney+ and will be a flagship of the brand which is debuting next year, according to Deadline.

‘Negotiations are u...

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
