The Mandalorian Season 3 trailer & poster drop

While the trailer does pretty quickly and firmly establish that Din Djarin's apparent excommunication from Mandalorian ranks by the Forgemaster is going to be fairly quickly resolved, it teases and lays groundwork for plenty of other major plot beats for viewers to look forward to.

Some minor characters seen in previous episodes look to be making a return in possibly bigger roles, while a lot of action and exploration will also take place in between the heartfelt moments between Grogu and Din. Continuing the series' proud tradition of video gamey progression upgrades, it seems Mando is getting an Astromech for his ship - possibly a sign of overcoming his distrust of droids.

Notably absent is Gina Carano's character, the former rebel soldier Cara Dune. Following the disgraced actress' anti-Semitic remarks wherein she failed to differentiate between literal genocide and disagreeing with people online, Lucasfilm officially cut ties. It seems that instead of re-casting, the studio decided to can the character.

While the premiere of The Mandalorian's third season is nearest, Disney has a lot of Star Wars content lined up including the standalone Ahsoka series, as well as Acolyte which will present fans with a Sith-focused storyline set in a less explored era of the lore's history.

The Mandalorian Season 3 premieres March 1 on Disney+.
