‘The Mandalorian’ Returns To A Classic ‘Star Wars’ Location In New Episode

The latest episode of The Mandalorian took viewers back to an iconic location in Star Wars lore.

To date, The Mandalorian has mostly taken viewers to new locations and introduced fresh characters to the Star Wars franchise. However, the most recent episode of The Mandalorian saw the titular bounty visit a planet that has played a pivotal in the Star Wars saga since it first debuted in the original film back in 1977: Tatooine.

There, the Mandalorian finds himself visiting the Mos Eisley cantina, though it is relatively quieter than Star Wars fans remember. Fans will most likely remember the Mos Eisley cantina from the first Star Wars film, where it introduced several alien species and served as the location where Luke Skywalker first met the rogue smuggler Han Solo.

Were you excited to revisit this classic Star Wars location? Let us know below!

Here is the official synopsis for Disney Plus’ The Mandalorian:

After the stories of Jango and Boba Fett, another warrior emerges in the Star Wars universe. The Mandalorian is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order. We follow the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far from the authority of the New Republic.

The Mandalorian stars Pedro Pascal, Gina Carano, Giancarlo Esposito, Emily Swallow, Carl Weathers, Omid Abtahi, Werner Herzog, and Nick Nolte. The Disney Plus series was written by Jon Favreau, who also serves as an executive producer alongside Dave Filoni, Kathleen Kennedy, and Colin Wilson. Karen Gilchrist is also on board as a co-executive producer.

Dave Filoni will direct the first episode of Star Wars series and additional episodes will be helmed by Thor: Ragnarok director Taika Waititi, Jurassic World star Bryce Dallas Howard, Dope director Rick Famuyiwa, and Jessica Jones director Deborah Chow.

The Mandalorian is now available exclusively on Disney Plus.
