The third season of The Mandalorian is in the full swing, and this Disney+ show is only getting better and better as time goes by. Jon Favreau recently addressed the show’s future, and revealed he wants it to last “as long as the audience is connecting with these characters.”

Favreau created The Mandalorian for Disney+ in 2019, and this Star Wars spinoff quickly became one of its flagship shows. The fourth season is currently in development, in addition to the spin-off series Ahsoka and Skeleton Crew, but for how long will this hit show go on?

“I don’t know what would make me not enjoy doing it, especially as long as the audience is connecting with these characters… I love this format of telling one chapter at a time and keeping the audience guessing, but also fulfilling certain expectations,” said Favreau during EW’s Dagobah Dispatch podcast.

The Mandalorian returned to Disney+ for its third season earlier this month, with Lee Isaac Chung, Bryce Dallas Howard, and Rick Famuyiwa directing new episodes. The series is led by Pedro Pascal, with Katee Sackhoff, Carl Weathers, Amy Sedaris, Emily Swallow, and Giancarlo Esposito in supporting roles. Christopher Lloyd and Tim Meadows are also set to appear in the later episodes of Season 3.
