The Mandalorian Season 4 is finally moving forward and one of the main actors has shared an interesting update on the Star Wars show's upcoming season. As it turns out, the upcoming season is set to be "ramped up" as Din Djarin and Grogu prepare for their return.
Brendan Wayne is one of the main actors behind Din Djarin's beskar armor in The Mandalorian and he recently shared a promising update about the progress of Season 4 (via Mandoverse Updates). Amidst celebrating his coaching achievements, Wayne expressed his excitement over the strikes being resolved and the upcoming ramp-up of The Mandalorian Season 4. Fondly referring to himself as "Coach Mando," Wayne's words suggest a positive development in the production of the highly anticipated season.
It's a welcome update considering that people have been waiting for The Mandalorian Season 4 since the previous season finale. On the other hand, the series could still face some problems before it could begin production.
What we know so far about The Mandalorian Season 4
The recent resolution of the strikes has prompted studios to reassess their priorities, and it appears that Lucasfilm has designated The Mandalorian Season 4 as a priority project. Wayne's mention of the show getting "ramped up" indicates that filming for Season 4 is gearing up and may commence in the early months of the coming year. Despite the strikes causing a delay, this update hints that the production is swiftly getting back on track, possibly just a few months behind the original schedule.

The development also sheds light on Pedro Pascal's potential availability for The Mandalorian Season 4. As Pascal is still engaged in filming Gladiator 2 and is set to begin work on The Last of Us Season 2 in January, the overlap in schedules may present a challenge. However, exceptions could be made if the storyline permits moments without Din's helmet, providing flexibility in Pascal's filming commitments.
In conclusion, the optimistic outlook for The Mandalorian Season 4, coupled with its priority status at Lucasfilm, instills confidence that the show will soon resume filming and maintain its anticipated release window in 2025. The fourth season has not yet been given an official release date but is already expected to begin production next year.
