Disney has announced that it will release a documentary series about The Mandalorian, called Disney Gallery, on Disney+, starting on May 4.

Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian is set for none other than Star Wars day (May the fourth be with you), and is an eight-episode series. Disney claims that it “starts streaming” on May 4, suggesting that – like its other multi-part shows – it will roll out on a week-by-week basis.

No further details are offered by the announcement tweet, but it seems like we can expect a detailed look at how the Star Wars TV show was brought to life by Jon Favreau and his team at Lucasfilm.

The title – Disney Gallery – also seems to suggest that there may be future Gallery series that focus on different shows.

The Mandalorian launched on Disney+ last year, and is currently rolling its episodes out in the UK and some other regions which only received Disney+ a few weeks ago. Our full season review was full of praise, and Season 2 looks set to feature Rosario Dawson as fan-favourite Jedi, Ahsoka Tano.
