The Mandalorian, once a beloved Star Wars revival, has become bogged down by the very franchise practices that plague Hollywood. This article explores the show’s evolution from a low-stakes, fun adventure to a sprawling, convoluted narrative, and the lessons we can learn about the dangers of over-saturation in beloved franchises.
The upcoming mini-series ‘Tales of the Empire’ is set to explore the parallel journeys of two warriors in different eras. Morgan Elsbeth, a young girl, navigates the growing Imperial world, while former Jedi Barriss Offee makes difficult choices to survive. The series, directed by Dave Filoni and featuring a cast including Jason Isaacs, Lars Mikkelsen, and Meredith Salenger, is scheduled to stream on Disney Plus.
