Rick Famuyiwa, who is best known for helming the films such as The Wood (1999), Brown Sugar (2002), and Dope (2015), has recently directed three episodes of Disney's television series The Mandalorian's third season. The filmmaker shared some insights about the new season. 

In the new season, Din Djarin, once a lone bounty hunter, has been reunited with Grogu, a child of Yoda's species whom he rescued and subsequently turned over to Luke Skywalker at the end of Season 2. Talking about the narrative progression of season 3, Rick said, "The great thing about Season 3 is that, in many ways, it's the culmination of the first two seasons and the original ideas of the Mandalorian and the Mandalorian culture and what that means specifically to Din Djarin."

On specifying more about the season, he added, "Where are you from, and what does that mean? Are you defined by your birth? Or the value system that you take on and how much of that you hold onto in the face of challenges? Those are the types of questions that we're continuing to explore and answer as we get into Season 3 and as we expand the world of the Mandalorians and are introduced to different elements of their culture."

Sharing the reason behind the show's massive success, Rick further mentioned: "At the heart of the success of the show and why people have connected to it is because the story is very elemental and human, and the things that Din Djarin, the Mandalorian, deals with are things that are relatable."

The series has Pedro Pascal as the Mandalorian (Din Djarin), Katee Sackhoff as Bo-Katan Kryze, Carl Weathers as Greef Karga, Amy Sedaris as Peli Motto, Emily Swallow as The Armorer and Giancarlo Esposito as Moff Gideon.
