The Mandalorian Season 2 is set to stream on October 30 on Disney+, so get ready to once again see Baby Yoda everywhere.
Season two of Star Wars spinoff, The Mandalorian, is set to start streaming on Disney+ on October 30, providing everyone with the Baby Yoda fill they’ve been sorely missing.
Season 1 of the series became an instant pop-culture hit which saw an array of memes make their way through social media, all thanks to the adventures of Mando and the instantly popular ‘Child’, affectionally conned Baby Yoda.
The show’s official Twitter account announced the news today, one week after the Star Wars Celebration 2020 convention was due to take place in Anaheim.

With many film and television productions put on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic, The Mandalorian comes without any delay, with Disney CEO Bob Chapek confirming that production had finished before the entertainment industry was put on hold.
Showrunner John Favreau told The Hollywood Report, “The fact that the set is much more contained is a benefit because you can limit the amount of people.”
He continued, “The amount of people near the camera could be much smaller than [usual]. We also shoot a lot outside, which is helpful too.
Season one of The Mandalorian was a hit on social media and helped launch the Disney+ subscription service late last year.
