The Mandalorian continues its course, but it could be the end for Pedro Pascal

The fans of The Mandalorian can rest easy, as the story of Din Djarin and Grogu will not conclude with the upcoming movie. Jon Favreau, creator and showrunner of the series, has confirmed that the fourth season is already written and planned in parallel with The Mandalorian & Grogu, the feature film set to premiere on April 22, 2026. In recent statements, Favreau emphasized the importance of maintaining the narrative coherence of the Mandoverse, stating that “everything has to feel like a continuation and a single story.”

The announcement has dispelled the speculation that the movie would mark the end of the series on Disney+. Favreau and his partner Dave Filoni have been working on the fourth season at the same time as the post-production of the third, ensuring that the narrative flow remains intact. Although the plot details of the new season have not yet been revealed, it is suggested that the events of the movie will influence the direction of the series and introduce elements from The Clone Wars.

Pedro Pascal may not return to Star Wars

However, the news comes with a change in the production dynamic. Pedro Pascal, who plays Din Djarin, is beginning to distance himself from the project to focus on his film career, which raises the possibility that the fourth season may serve as a conclusion for his character. This reinforces the idea that, although the saga will continue, a new path for the characters may be presented in the future.

With an eye on the success of the movie, which will mark the return of Star Wars to theaters after the sequel trilogy, the future of the franchise will depend on audience reception. The series will not be extended indefinitely, but it will surely continue to offer exciting adventures. Fans can expect more news at the upcoming Star Wars Celebration in Japan, which will take place in April.
