Mandalorian Season 3 Release Date: When Season 3 of The Mandalorian premieres on Disney Plus in 2023, it will be February. There’s still a lot to find out while we wait for the next Star Wars episode. One such benefit is an early glimpse at the transition from Pedro Pascal’s leadership to that of Din Djarin. Don’t worry if you haven’t seen the trailer or the bonus content from Star Wars Celebration yet; we’ve got you covered. The latest development in Din’s attempt to make amends for betraying the Mandalorian Creed in Season 2 comes courtesy of Jon Favreau.
This post will tell you all you need to know about the third season of The Mandalorian, including who’s in the cast, what’s going to happen, and more. If you want to follow Mando and his little green apprentice Baby Yoda on their continued quest, you should do as they do.
Will The Mandalorian return for a third season?
At Star Wars Celebration, it was announced that the third season of The Mandalorian would premiere in February 2023. While the precise release date is uncertain, we may assume it will be on a Wednesday or Friday (with the former being more likely given the historical pattern). Therefore, the first of February would be the earliest potential premiere date, and the 24th of February would be the latest.
In a galaxy far, far away, the future is bright. Andor will premiere on August 31; The Bad Batch season 2 and Tales of the Jedi season 2 will drop in the autumn of 2022. Both Star Wars: Visions II and Ahsoka will be released in 2023.
Season 3 Cast of The Mandalorian
The cast for season 3 of The Mandalorian has not yet been finalised. We do know that Pedro Pascal will reprise his role as the main character and that his loyal sidekick Grogu (Baby Yoda) will also return for the new season. Many fans were concerned that Pedro Pascal’s new TV series, The Last of Us, would prevent him from focusing on The Mandalorian season 3, however, there have been rumours that production on the third season has already begun.
In addition, actor Giancarlo Esposito, who plays Moff Gideon, confirmed in an interview with EW that Season 3 will feature more of Gideon: I think I’ll be more prominent in the upcoming season. Afterwards, they added, “Plus, several Moff Gideon.” It’s not just scary, but it also looks likely.
Season 3 of The Mandalorian, which will premiere after Season 2 concludes, will see Carl Weathers’ return as Greef Karga. In addition, he announced his return to directing at Steel City Con. Bo-Katan, played by Katee Sackhoff again, will likely try to steal the Darksaber from Din now that it has been returned to him. It is also possible that Rosario Dawson will reprise her role as Ahsoka following her brief appearance in The Book of Boba Fett, however, this has not been confirmed.
Sasha Banks has stated that she will not be returning as Koska Reeves for the third season of The Mandalorian.
The Rangers of the New Republic cast Gina Carano’s Cara Dune among its main players. However, LucasFilm has chosen to terminate Ms Carano’s employment in light of her recent behaviour on social media. Rangers of the New Republic, on which Ms Carano was set to star, has been cancelled, and she will not feature in season 3 of The Mandalorian.
Season 3 Trailer for The Mandalorian
The third season of The Mandalorian was confirmed as the trailer premiered behind closed doors at Star Wars Celebration in Chicago. But we were there in person, and we have our own trailer description of the action to share: Mando removed his helmet on purpose, which seems to have upset Bo-Katan.
Then bo-Katan takes a seat on a throne and announces her disinterest in Mando. And so it is that Din Djarin resolves to visit Mandalore in search of “forgiveness for his sins.” Greef Karga appears as well, playing the role of a small-town mayor during a shootout.
Baby Yoda and Mando’s reunion is also captured on film. As the battle comes to a close, another parallel figure dressed in Mandalorian armour asks Grogu, “Did you believe your father was the only Mandalorian?” In fact, another panel showed a tiny glimpse of the film’s release. In this first peek at upcoming episodes, we see Mandalore for the first time in live action, complete with a magnificent Star Destroyer and even Din Djarin leading some Mandalorians into battle.
The third season of The Mandalorian isn’t expected to be available to the public until at least March.

Synopsis of Season 3 of The Mandalorian
Season 3 of The Mandalorian is still a ways off, but showrunner Dave Filoni has already given fans a taste of what’s to come by saying, “There are going to be a lot of new activities. I have to be careful; I can’t give any details, but I think the Force is on our side here; let’s just say it’ll be a powerful move. Even if it doesn’t tell us much, this has all the hallmarks of a Mando masterpiece. Season 3 of The Mandalorian may feature numerous plotlines that have not yet been addressed.
The trailer shows that Mando and Bo-Katan are competing for the Darksaber, which appears to be a major plot point. After Din seized the Mandalorian weapon as his own in Chapter 16 by fighting and beating Moff Gideon, Bo-Katan had to fight and win over Mando in order to regain possession of the weapon.
Sabine Wren’s seemingly unproblematic handoff of the Darksaber to Bo-Katan in The Clone Wars raised some eyebrows, although this was explained away in The Book of Boba Fett. The Armourer asserts that Bo-Katan’s reign as Mandalore came to an end because she obtained the Darksaber, rather than conquering it. Nonetheless, it seems like Din is set on keeping the weapon, employing it to seek out a bounty, and learning how to use it from the Armourer.
Pascal spoke to Total Film about his character’s development into a leader, and the season 3 teaser appears to show him doing so.
Steve Blum elaborates on Din’s search for redemption in season 2. In an interview for EW’s Dagobah Dispatch podcast (opens in new window), he noted, “We established in The Book of Boba Fett that there was a possibility for the Mandalorian to be redeemed.”
Conclusion
Gideon may yet have a last-ditch strategy, despite his capture. Throughout the season, he acknowledges receiving information from an anonymous source, and in the season 2 finale, he brings it up again. It would make sense for the upcoming Disney Plus season to explore this link further. Is Thrawn possible?
Or perhaps there is another famous person who resides in the Empire who has yet to come to our attention. The presence of a massive Star Destroyer in the Mando video is further proof that Gideon has connections at the highest levels of power.
