Original TV Shows
Disney has an entire slate of TV shows it’s looking to release on Disney+ when it launches on November 12th. Here are some of the highlights.
The Mandalorian
I’ve been craving a Star Wars Bounty Hunter movie since I first saw Boba Fett in Empire Strikes Back when I was a kid. The Mandalorian TV series may be better than I imagined.
The 8 episode series will focus on a Mandalorian bounty hunter similar to Boba Fett. The timeline will take place about five years after the fall of The Empire in Return of the Jedi. It will be the first time we see this period of the Star Wars universe on screen.
The Mandalorian will be the first live-action Star Wars series and it is written and produced by Iron Man director Jon Favreau. This series will be available on launch of the Disney+ streaming service in November.
Disney could take my $6.99 per month on the movies and this series alone, but there is so much more that will be available.

The Falcon and The Winter Soldier
Anthony Mackie will return as Falcon and Sebastian Stan will reprise his role as Winter Soldier in the new Marvel Studios series. This show is planned to be released sometime in the first year after the service launches in November.
Untitled Cassian Andor Series
Diego Luna will reprise his role of rebel spy Cassian Andor from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. The intended spy-thriller series will be set during the formative years of the Rebellion before the events of Rogue One.
The show will explore tales filled with espionage and daring missions to restore hope to a galaxy in the grip of a ruthless Empire. The best part about this series is Alan Tudyk will reprise his role as K-2SO.
Expect to see this series released within the first 2 years of the launch of Disney+.

Loki: Within two years of the launch of Disney+ Tom Hiddleston will reprise his role as Loki in a new Loki series.
