Star Wars: The Mandalorian TV Series

The book Of Boba Fett has finished filming, read from cbr:

Speaking to SFX Magazine, Boba Fett actor Temuera Morrison confirmed the series is done filming. "It was quite difficult because of Covid," he added. "You walk on set and you hear, 'Shields down! Shields down!' So we have to air those studios out every 20 minutes. It's called a purge, so you know you've got a toilet break then. There's a lot to shoot in one day, but with health and safety and the requirements it filters out a lot of the bullshit, put it that way."

The Boba Fett spinoff will reportedly serve as "The Mandalorian Season 2.5" in the meantime
 
Did not realise they had been working on it for such a long time. I guess that means a release date is not too far away.
Hopefully, it's near the end of 2021 and not next year.

Read that the Ahsoka spinoff series is searching for an actor to bring Rebels' Sabine Wren to the live-action spin off.
 
Mando season 3 will start filming soon nice! , read from CBR:

The Mandalorian star Carl Weathers has confirmed that the Star Wars series' highly-anticipated third season will begin filming within the next month.


Weathers, who plays Greef Karga on The Mandalorian, spoke about the upcoming third season during an appearance at Steel City Con. "And so now, we're gonna start a new season of The Mandalorian, within the next month. Yeah,"

Weathers also confirmed that, in addition to reprising his role as Greef Karga, he will once again sit in the director's chair for The Mandalorian Season 3.

Read on Mando's Helmet from CBR:

Favreau talked about how the strict rules that Din Djarin and his covert follow, including that they never remove their helmets in front of others, came to exist on the show. "As I was first pitching the Mandalorian story [in November 2017] and figuring out what I wanted the show to look like, I gave myself the freedom to tell the story that I wanted to tell," Favreau said. "And, to his credit, Dave never said, 'Oh, you can't have [Mandalorians not removing their helmets] be the rule; we've already established that [they can remove their helmets].' I even played a Mandalorian character [The Clone Wars' Pre Vizsla] whose helmet was off most of the time."

As Favreau mentions, The Clone Wars and Rebels featured numerous Mandalorians that regularly removed their helmets. Favreau himself even played Death Watch leader Pre Vizsla -- and now voices his descendant on The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett, Paz Vizsla. But while the two animated shows explored Mandalorian history more than any other canon sources so far, there was still a lot left to delve into.

"There were a few things that I wanted to explore," he continued. "One was why we didn't see a lot of Mandalorians in the original trilogy and sequels. You see them so much in Clone Wars, but you don't see any of them now. The other was, how do you get back to what George did, which was treat the characters almost like action figures? How do you get back to how young kids interact with Star Wars, the colors and shapes and characters?"

As Mando has met more and more Mandalorians outside of his zealous covert, he's learned that not all of them follow the same rules. Din himself has even started to question the rules, as he was kicked out of his covert after revealing that he removed his helmet. Still, both live-action Star Wars shows have mostly kept the iconic helmet on.

"By keeping [Mando's] helmet on all the time," Favreau said. "It's not about the face under it, it's about the helmet. Same with Boba Fett; you don't think about what's under the helmet, you think about that mysterious silhouette. I wanted to preserve the magic of that, or return it to that, knowing full well that we would get complex later, that there are some groups that have evolved, like Bo-Katan's group, that are dealing more with the politics of the moment. Having those two meet each other and contend with one another was a way to address that."
