Will Pedro Pascal’s show The Mandalorian be converted into a film?
As per the reports by MakingStarWars, there are rumors about converting Pedro Pascal’s series into a full-length feature film. The upcoming season will not be streaming on Disney+ like the previous ones.
According to insiders, Lucasfilm and Disney are concerned because of the ongoing Writers Guild of America and Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists strikes. Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau would not be able to complete two more seasons of the show, needed to set up the base for The Mandalorian‘s originally planned film.

Is there a story for Pedro Pascal’s The Mandalorian season 4?
Talking about the fourth season, there is no update on the release date yet. However, the show creator Favreau shared that the story for the fourth season is already written. He shared,
“Season 4? Yeah, I’ve written it already. We have to know where we’re going to tell a fully-formed story, so we had mapped it out, [executive producer] Dave [Filoni] and I, and then slowly you just write each episode. So I was writing it during post-production [on The Mandalorian Season 3] because all of it has to feel like a continuation, one full story.”
As per reports, despite having the script, the show will be impacted by WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, leading to its delay.
The Mandalorian was initially released in 2019, and after an overwhelming response to the series, the makers released further seasons.
