How The Mandalorian Will Be More Like Game Of Thrones In Season 2

Though Season 1 truly brought everything together in the latter episodes, the first several installments made The Mandalorian feel more like an adventure-of-the-week series. Which wasn’t necessarily a bad thing, don’t get me wrong, but that’s definitely not the kind of format that people expect to see from this franchise, which essentially kept one multi-threaded story going across a 40-year time span. It sounds like Jon Favreau was more interested in telling a more expansive, but still inclusive, story with not just Mando, but also other characters. For instance, Giancarlo Esposito’s darksaber-wielding Moff Gideon is definitely getting a larger arc for Season 2, and viewers can look forward to seeing introductions for other mythology-heavy characters such as Ahsoka Tano.
