Jon Favreau Confirms ‘The Mandalorian’ Season 2 Production Delays Will Not Affect the Premiere Date

Jon Favreau Confirms ‘The Mandalorian’ Season 2 Production Delays Will Not Affect the Premiere Date. During an interview with CNBC, newly appointed Disney CEO Bob Chapek shared that “there will be no delay on Mandalorian” and that the series is still expected to premiere on Disney+ in October 2020.

Some fans were skeptical that the series would face minimal delays, but we now have confirmation from the series showrunner and creator Jon Favreau that The Mandalorian Season 2 will premiere in October 2020 as previously scheduled.

“We were lucky enough to have finished photography before the lockdown, so thanks to how technology-forward Lucasfilm and ILM are, we’ve been able to do all the editing visual effects remotely… It will be available as planned on Disney+ in October,” Favreau shared while speaking with series directors Dave Filoni, Deborah Chow, Taika Waititi, Bryce Dallas Howard, and Rick Famuyiwa.  “It will be building on hopefully what people loved from the first season. It doesn’t feel like the next season, it feels like work continuing.” Adding, “I hope people are having as much seeing it as we are having making it.”

The series finished filming back in February 2020 and is currently being edited at home thanks to the dedicated VFX artists and editors at Lucasfilm. Disney also recently ordered a third season of the mega-popular Star Wars series, which will likely premiere on Disney+ in October 2021, similarly to how the first two seasons were released via the new streaming service.

Earlier this year, The Mandalorian Animation Supervisor, Hal Hickel shared with Variety , “A big tentpole summer film, like say Avengers, might be around 2,000 visual effects shots, and these series are a little shy of 4,000 visual effects shots for Season One, and Season Two is no different. We’re doing them in around the same amount of time, maybe even less time, than a big summer film, plus we all have to work remotely. We’re in the middle of that tsunami now, but we’re going to get it all done, people are going to get their Baby Yoda, I promise.”

If You Sleep On These Disney+ Shows, Do We Even Know You Anymore?

Tired of rewatching the same old Disney movies or waiting for new stuff to arrive on Disney+?

©Disney

We feel ya there! That’s why we’ve decided to crack open some Capri Suns, bust out the Fruit Roll-Ups, and revisit a few of our favorite TV series from the past that are currently streaming on Disney+!

Shows like The Mandalorian, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Prop Culture, The Imagineering Story, and One Day at Disney have all been gettin’ some major love! Heck, even WE are rendered completely helpless by The World According to Jeff Goldblum. It’s all we ever wanna watch every time we plop down on our sofas!

But here are a few Disney+ shows nobody’s talking about — even though EVERYONE should be! And if you’re an 80s baby, you might be surprised to learn that so many of the shows you grew up with are now streaming on Disney+! Let’s take a look!

See which shows we think every ride or die Disney parks fan should watch here!

The Simpsons

Now you might not associate Bart Simpson’s wisecrack antics with Disney’s more gentle and calm family-friendly programming, but the company acquired 20th Century Fox which is why you can watch 30 seasons of The Simpsons currently on Disney+!

Now if you’re a true Homer-aficionado, you might not be in love with the widescreen formatting which tends to cut off some of the screen of the first nearly 20 seasons. Disney has assured us they are currently working on the problem and are hoping to offer a fullscreen version of The Simpsons in the near future!

America’s Funniest Videos

Long before YouTube or social media were ever a thing, people watched viral videos on a little show called America’s Funniest Home Videos — or AFV for short!

Bob Saget (the comedian dad who portrayed Danny Tanner on Full House) was the original host of AFV, but you’ll only find nine seasons of America’s Funniest Home Videos on Disney+ and they’re ALL the Tom Bergeron years — from 2002 to 2012! Don’t worry, they’re still totally hilarious and just as dated as you remember them, even if they do lack that Danny Tanner charm!

Gargoyles

Do you remember the niche cartoon, Gargoyles? It aired from 1994 to 1996 and was a little RISKY by Disney standards!

But Disney is no stranger to dark stuff (just look at all the wicked villainy that takes place in many classic Disney films!). If you’ve ever wanted to know how 1,000-year-old gargoyles from Scotland cope with modern-day city life in New York after being awoken from a curse, check it out!

X-Men

Another show you might be surprised to see on Disney+ is the mega-popular 90s X-Men series. Although Disney didn’t play a role in creating the animated show, which loosely follows the Marvel comic books, the show was previously aired on Fox (like The Simpsons). This is how the mutants came to be live on the Disney streaming service.

If you’ve watched X-Men before, you’ll remember many of the episodes are sequential — playing out like a cartoon soap opera at times with complicated love relationships forming between many of the characters. Next time you’re endlessly scrolling through the  Disney+ library for something to watch, how about checkin’ in with your old buds Gambit, Rogue, Cyclops, Beast, Wolverine, Jean Grey, Professor X, and Magneto!

Bonkers

While The Disney Afternoon had great success with hit shows like DuckTales, Darkwing Duck, and Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers (which are also ALL available on Disney+!), only one season of Bonkers was ever made — which is SAD! Bonkers is and forever shall be one of the most truly under-appreciated Disney shows!

Bonkers ©Disney

The cartoon aired in 1993 and follows the lovable Bonkers T. Bobcat — a movie star turned comedy cop. We think we love this show as much as we do because it put off some MAJOR Roger Rabbit vibes at times!

TaleSpin

Remember when The Jungle Book’s Baloo and King Louie got their own cartoon spin-off…flying planes? It was the 90s and it was a glorious time to be alive!

TaleSpin ©Disney

But just like our friend Bonkers T. Bobcat, Baloo only got to fly the friendly skies for one season. We still can’t get its theme song out of our heads!

The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh

While the Winnie the Pooh books and movies are classic, we think it was The New Adventures of  Winnie the Pooh cartoon series that made us fall in love with the silly old bear and his Hundred Acre crew!

Four seasons of the show were made from 1988 to 1991 and, although Winnie the Pooh’s voice is provided actor Jim Cummings and not Sterling Halloway (the original actor who did a lot of voice work for Disney including Pooh in The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh), it’s still a quality re-watch! Plus, the theme song is a straight-up JAM!

Adventures of the Gummi Bears

And while we’re on the subject of bears, there’s one final show we can’t fail to mention. The Gummi Bears!

Do you remember these guys bouncing here and there and EVERYWHERE, ’cause we sure do! We bet our moms do too because we were usually flying around the room whenever this cartoon was on (pretending we had our very own Gummi Bear Juice, of course!). We’re not sure if we can muster that same level of energy, but we’re still enthusiastic about this great show. Check out all six seasons of Adventures of the Gummi Bears now on Disney+!

We love watching these throwback shows on Disney+! It helps to make us feel like a kid again!!

Check out which classic Disney TV broadcast will be getting its own movie reboot here!

Rumored: ‘The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’ to be Renamed for Season 2

Rumored: ‘The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’ to be Renamed for Season 2. Though The Falcon and the Winter Soldier has been the least secretive when it comes to the content we will get to see in any of the new Marvel series coming to Disney+, it seems the series will see an unexpected split between The Falcon/Sam Wilson and The Winter Soldier/Bucky Barner. That is, according to Marvel scooper Charles Murphy from Murphy’s Law podcast.

“Coming out of season one, [Bucky Barnes and Sam Wilson] are going to have gone through something traumatic and be different,” Murphy explained in a recent podcast. “There was definitely at one point a plan for a second season… If they did have season two, it wouldn’t be called The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Season 2, it would be a thematically related thing with a different name.”

The series already has Marvel fans excited for the premiere with the reappearance of Sharon Carter/Agent 13 (Emily VanCamp) and the evil Baron Zemo (Daniel Brühl). We will also be introduced to a new MCU character by the name of U.S. Agent/John Walker (Wyatt Russell).

“It’s going to be so cool and kind of crazy. All I can say is it’s just new and different from what you’ve seen so far,” Stan said of the series during a previous convention appearance. “I mean, it will be totally in line with everything that has happened and what we’ve seen and so on, but these characters are getting such additional mileage in terms of learning about who they are now, what they feel, what they’re thinking, and there’s a lot of action, comedy, you know there’s going to be comedy. I feel like you’re going to be happy. I think you’re going to be very happy. And there’s some crazy stuff, like stuff you don’t see coming from anywhere.”

The mystery revolving around the series is palpable, but to tease a split ending? Wow. Especially after it was announced the series would be filming reshoots after the initial storyline too closely resembled the COVID-19 pandemic. It is also rumored the series, along with WandaVision, will only premiere with the first half of the season in 2020. Likely due to production delays from the pandemic. If the series is picked up for a second season we could also see the creation of two new series following the heroes, or the possibility of one of the characters moving to a different Marvel series on Disney+.

We can’t wait for The Falcon and The Winter Soldier to premiere later this year! Which Marvel series are you the most excited for? How do you think the series will end? We would love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
