Well, that's good news.

Entertainment Weekly article with a first look at season 2 of The Mandalorian.

Right after season 1, check. 8 episodes. Greef and Dune are pretty much in sync with each other, check. Less isolated and a larger story. Gee, wonder what. lol. Some rumors were true, some weren't. Hm.

Given that season two is going to be less isolated and having a larger story, I suspect that each episode is going to have a longer run time.

New trailer for season 2.


EDIT:
New poster and season 2 stills also posted.

9/15: Well, well, well. Sasha Banks confirmed to be in it after all but in a cloak that totally obscures who she is. heh heh.

EDIT: The directors of Season Two are Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni, Bryce Dallas Howard, Rick Famuyiwa, Carl Weathers, Peyton Reed, and Robert Rodriguez.

9/16: At the Creative Arts Emmys, Mandalorian won Outstanding Production Design For A Narrative Program (Half-Hour), Outstanding Cinematography For A Single-Camera Series (Half-Hour), Outstanding Sound Editing For A Comedy Or Drama Series (Half-Hour), Outstanding Sound Mixing For A Comedy Or Drama Series (Half-Hour), and Outstanding Special Visual Effects.

Yeah, get used to that shot of Baby Yoda closing the hatch, it’s going to be a meme for a loooong time.

Good trailer, I’m very interested to see the strong presence of Stormtroopers, seeing as I’ve always been fascinated with what happened to them after the Empire fell. Nothing of Boba Fett or Ashoka, which surprises me, I expected to see a tease from one of them at the very end.

Also, a very interesting director’s list. I’m glad to see Bryce Dallas Howard on the list, her episode in the first season is a favourite of mine. Also, Robert Rodriguez doing Star Wars? Yes please.

9/16: No doubt those are Stormtroopers in Moff Gideon's employ.

I've heard there are claims Fett (or Cobb if rumors are true) does have a brief cameo in the trailer. Something like no doubt that is his jet pack as he drives his speeder back to us.

Yeah, feels like there'll be teases for one of both closer to October 30.

9/18: More fuel for Boba Fett.

TV spot released.

9/19: Won Emmy for Outstanding Music Composition for a Series (Original Dramatic Score).

9/21: Esposito teases season 2 helps lay the ground work for answers in seasons 3 and 4...

8/26: Esposito teases a possible connection to the Force that Gideon has or that he's privy to information about it.

8/27: New rumor that Dawson filmed a marketing promo as Ahsoka 2 weeks ago wearing a gray cloak and fighting two bounty hunters.

That Dawson rumor appears to be another piece of false news by Kessel Run Transmissions.

They didn't do press screeners for Season 1 either. They had a press junket where they showed about the first half of the first episode and select clips from the first 3. I know because I was there. there was a premiere where they showed the first three episodes as well. Not sure if press were allowed in to watch those however.

For Clone Wars final season they did press screeners for the first two episodes.
