The Mandalorian is set to return in October. It has been announced that Season 2 of the acclaimed Star Wars TV show will start streaming on Disney+ from Friday, October 30, and fans will finally be able to check back in with Mando and Baby Yoda.

　　The news was confirmed by Disney+ in a new tweet. We've yet to see any footage or images from the new season, and the tweet only displays the shows's familiar logo. But is exciting to think the new season is only a few weeks away. Check it out below.

　　While many upcoming shows have been delayed because of the COVID-19 pandemic, production on The Mandalorian Season 2 was already complete by the time much of Hollywood shut down in March. Jon Favreau returns as showrunner, with Pedro Pascal back in the title role. Other returning cast members include Gina Carano (Cara Dune), Carl Weathers (Greef), and Giancarlo Esposito (Moff Gideon).

　　In terms of the new cast, Terminator and Aliens star Michael Biehn will reportedly play a bounty hunter, while it is rumored that Rosario Dawson might appear as fan-favorite character Ahsoka Tano, who first appeared in the animated movie and show The Clone Wars. New directors joining the series include Robert Rodriguez, Peyton Reed, and Carl Weathers.
