Nearly two weeks ahead of the release of Jon Favreau's THE MANDALORIAN, the official Star Wars Twitter account has unveiled a new poster for the highly-anticipated Star Wars spinoff series.
THE MANDALORIAN follows a lone bounty hunter (Pedro Pascal) in the outer reaches of the galaxy as he sets out to collect a particularly difficult prize. In addition to Pascal, the cast of THE MANDALORIAN also includes Giancarlo Esposito, Gina Carano, Nick Nolte, Carl Weathers, Emily Swallow, Omid Abtahi, Taika Waititi, Ming-Na Wen, and Werner Herzog.
With regard to THE MANDALORIAN's timeline, the series takes place five years after the events of RETURN OF THE JEDI, and could provide us with clues as to how The First Order began their rise to power.
You can check out the latest posters for THE MANDALORIAN below:
For the posters, we find Pedro Pascal's character leading the charge. In the show, Pascal plays a lone gunfighter and bounty hunter with questionable moral character. Next, we find Gina Carano as Cara Dune, a former Rebel Shock Trooper who now works as a mercenary and who fought for the Rebel Alliance in the civil war. Then comes Carl Weathers as Moff Gideon, a former Empire governor who went through a life-changing event after the second Death Star was destroyed. The next poster features a droid named IG-11 who is voiced by Taika Waititi, while the last focuses on a brutish-looking creature, who some believe is Nick Nolte's character.
As you can see, the new print re-confirms the show's November 12 start date on Disney+ in most territories. Unfortunately, Star Wars fans who live in the UK have yet to learn of when Disney's exclusive streamer will launch in their area. Suffice it to say, those who reside in the UK are pissed, and are ready and willing to pirate the series if need be. With any luck, Disney will sort the UK launch of their streamer sooner rather than later, lest they want to incur the wrath of the Dark Side from Star Wars fans who hail from across the pond.
