May 4 is extra special to Star Wars fans. And now there's another reason for fans to get extra excited this coming May 4. An eight-episode documentary on the Star Wars series The Mandalorian will start streaming then. Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian comes from the show's producer Jon Favreau, and it gives us a look at behind-the-scenes footage, cast and crew interviews, and roundtable discussions with Favreau.
According to the press release, the docuseries will also shed light on the show's filmmaking process, its "groundbreaking technology," and the "artistry behind the show's practical models, effects, and creatures," among other things. Lucasfilm didn't say if we're getting a look at The Child's (a.k.a. Baby Yoda) lineage, but we're holding out hope that the series will shed some light on the beloved character's background. New episodes of the show will be available every Friday on Disney+.
