Some Details
Entertainment Weekly shared, “First, the showrunner basically announced the pickup of the Disney+ series. While Favreau and director Dave Filoni have been at work on the second season for a while, this marks the first time it has been made official.
Second, Favreau said the show will return in fall 2020, which is good news — plenty of ambitious cable or streaming dramas take more than a year to return nowadays, and given the series debuted in November it wasn’t clear if the Star Wars live-action series would take more than a year to come back.”
Entertainment Weekly continued, “And finally, Favreau teased the return of a creature first glimpsed in Return of the Jedi, the green pig-like Gamorrean, which served as guards of Jabba’s palace.”
Fans of the Disney+ series replied to the Tweet with excitment. Josh Gad commented, “Dude, why an incredible job. Congrats on an insanely fun season.”
