Filming for the third season of The Mandalorian will be getting underway today (October 13).

Carl Weathers confirmed he will be shooting scenes as he reprises his role of Greef Karga, which has obviously delighted fans all over the world.

Filming for the third season of the hit Disney+ show has been delayed by several months.

It was originally due to get underway in April before it was pushed to September, with ScreenRant reporting the spinoff show The Book of Boba Fett took precedence and The Mandalorian had to 'wait its turn'.

Weathers revealed that not only will he be in front of the camera for the upcoming season, but he'll also get to direct one episode.

We don't know much about the third instalment, although there is some suggestion that Giancarlo Esposito's Moff Gideon could play a fairly major part in the new installment - judging from the actor's recent comments.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly back in November, Esposito said: "I have a feeling you'll see more of me next season. More than likely you're going to see a lot of Moff Gideon.

"I can't be sure of that, but it seems as though this iconic journey that they want you to feel it. I think you're going to start to see other storylines start to creep in.

"When we start to realise there's such a deep connection [between the show's storylines and] the rest of the galaxy and what's really happening.

"Maybe you'll get an inkling of what he wants."

The first live-action series in the Star Wars franchise, The Mandalorian is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergency of the First Order, following a lone bounty hunter who goes on the run after being tasked with retrieving 'The Child' (better known as Baby Yoda).

The second season, which premiered last October, saw The Mandalorian and The Child continue their journey, 'facing enemies and rallying allies as they make their way through a dangerous galaxy in the tumultuous era after the collapse of the Galactic Empire'.

There's no word on when we can expect to see the third season land on the small screen so we'll have to hope that information will drop soon.
