We don’t know much about the spinoff series from Lucasfilm, but with the new filming news, we can guess it will premiere sometime in 2020. So far, the description we have seen explains the series as, “The rousing spy thriller will explore tales filled with espionage and daring missions to restore hope to a galaxy in the grip of a ruthless Empire. A release date for the series has not yet been announced.”
“Going back to the Star Wars universe is very special for me,” he wrote. “I have so many memories of the great work we did together and the relationships I made throughout the journey. We have a fantastic adventure ahead of us, and this new exciting format will give us the chance to explore this character more deeply.”
The series does not yet have a name, but will most likely be similar to The Mandalorian, which is already in production as of October of 2018. It’s set to hit Disney’s new streaming service, Disney +, in 2019.
