“The Mandalorian” showrunner Jon Favreau and the show’s star Pedro Pascal recently hinted at a possible movie based on “The Mandalorian.”
Favreau told Variety there’s been a blurring of the lines between products people see on television and what they see in the movies. For example, Marvel will have its television shows — like “WandaVision” — intertwine with other Marvel movies.
- “The Mandalorian” could see something similar, he told Variety.
- “The line is blurring now,” said Favreau. “Things that you would have only seen in the movie theater, you’re seeing on streaming, and I think it could go the other way as well.”
Favreau told Variety he’s in “no rush” for “The Mandalorian” to be made into a movie.
- “But we’re definitely open to it,” he added, “and excited to see where the story leads us and have that flexibility — because there’s no rulebook now.”
Pascal said he would “love” to make a movie based on “The Mandalorian.”
