Part 4/9:
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Mandalorian project is no longer a certainty. While there was an expectation that Season 4 would proceed normally, the current stance appears to be more ambiguous. If the movie proves successful, it could influence whether the series continues beyond Season 4 or whether it will be adapted into the film.
Multiple Rumors: A Confusing Landscape
Adding to the chaos are rumors from various outlets like Making Star Wars and Bestman Bulletin. One troubling notion is that Lucasfilm might condense Season 4—originally envisioned as a six-episode arc—into just a few episodes, with the finale potentially serving as the basis for a feature film.
