Disney CEO confirms that The Mandalorian Season 2 will not be delayed and will be released in October

The film and television industry around the world has been impacted to some extent by the COVID-19 epidemic, and even giants like Disney are not immune. Blockbuster movies such as "Mulan" and "Black Widow" have adjusted their release dates, but now according to Disney's CEO, the second season of "Star Wars: The Mandalorian," one of the most popular web series last year, will be released as scheduled.

In an interview with CNBC, Disney CEO Chapek revealed that most of the filming process of "The Mandalorian" had been completed before the stay-at-home order, and post-production can also be carried out online, so there are currently no problems with progress and the second season of "The Mandalorian" will not be postponed.

This is good news for Star Wars fans, but Disney+'s other flagship series, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and WandaVision may not be so lucky. It was previously rumored that The Falcon and the Winter Soldier had changed its plot outline, so the location shooting was not completed before the global lockdown. Chapek did not disclose the status of these two Marvel spin-off series in the interview, but did not announce that the original launch plan was affected (set for August and December respectively).

The second season of "The Mandalorian" is expected to be launched in October 2020, so stay tuned.
