The Mandalorian Plot and Cast
Since Season 3 has not premiered yet, we cannot predict what will happen in Season 4. However, it is confirmed to continue from where Season 3 ends.
The ending of The Mandalorian Season 2 felt like a final point in the series, leaving a lot of questions about what would happen in Season 3. It was believed that the post-credits scene could have included setting a new story that revolved around Boba Fett and Fennec Shand and it turned out to be The Book of Boba Fett.
Beginning five years after the events of Return of the Jedi (1983) and the fall of the Galactic Empire, The Mandalorian follows Din Djarin, a lone Mandalorian bounty hunter in the outer reaches of the galaxy. He is hired by remnant Imperial forces to retrieve the child Grog but instead goes on the run to protect the infant.
While looking to reunite Grogu with his kind, they are pursued by Moff Gideon, who wants to use Grogu’s connection to the Force. The duo then travels to Mandalore so Din Djarin can redeem himself for the transgression of removing his helmet.
Although it is not confirmed yet, the expected cast members for Season 4includes Pedro Pascal, Grogu, Giancarlo Esposito, Carl Weathers, Katee Sackhoff, Emily Swallow, Omid Abtahi, Christopher Lloyd, and Tim Meadows.
