The Mandalorian, the first-ever live-action Star Wars TV show, premieres in just a couple weeks on Disney+. The show follows a Mandalorian bounty hunter (Game of Thrones star Pedro Pascal) tasked by the leader of a bounty hunter’s guild (Carl Weathers) with jobs deemed too hard for other professionals.
The show is set shortly after the fall of the Empire in Return of the Jedi, with the galaxy having turned into a lawless mess. Disney has released a new trailer, so sit back and enjoy the ride:
That would be Werner Herzog narrating the trailer, intensely. And hey, the Mandalorian finally talked! Now if we could only see under his mask…
The show’s official Twitter account also released five character posters, beginning with Pascal’s Mandalorian.

This final character is an Ugnaught. I have no idea who’s playing him, but some fans seem to think it’s Nick Nolte in mocap. I mean, it could be, although if hire Nolte don’t you want to feature his recognizable face?
