The Mandalorian actor Giancarlo Esposito gives update on season 3 and reveals filming will begin "soon"
The Mandalorian star has revealed that it won't be long until the cast and crew reunite for season three.
Fans of The Mandalorian have been desperate for any season three news since watching Baby Yoda head off with Luke Skywalker at the end of season two – and thankfully Giancarlo Esposito has now provided an update on when production will begin.
The Star Wars spin-off star, who plays Galactic Empire villain Moff Gideon, recently told WRAL.com that, with filming for the upcoming Boba Fett series now finished, it won't be long until the cameras start rolling for The Mandalorian season three.
"They just finished shooting Boba Fett and soon they will start on season three," he said.
While Pedro Pascal, who stars as the titular bounty hunter, is currently filming The Last of Us in Canada, Esposito added that his absence wouldn't stop filming from going ahead.
