We’re not far away from the start of season 2 of The Mandalorian, which will bring even more adventures in the life and career of Mando and his young (yes, fifty IS young thankyouverymuch!) friend The Child / Baby Yoda / correct name to follow, and Giancarlo Esposito is clearly excited about the show, and the prospect of a third season, which he thinks Jon Favreau is already mulling over.

Esposito will reprise his role as another villain, Moff Gideon, in Season 2 of Disney Plus series “The Mandalorian,” during the production of which he broke multiple lightsaber props. The show’s sophomore run is slated to come out in October. Esposito says he has not yet seen cuts of new episodes but has been in touch with series creator Jon Favreau. “I’ve had a chance to have some conversations with him. So, I haven’t seen any of [Season] 2 yet, but it’s gonna be power-packed, and I think in Jon’s mind, he’s probably already writing [Season] 3.”
