In the wake of Disney pausing its initial spinoff movie plans following Solo: A Star Wars Story and extending the brand into streaming, what is the elasticity in regard to what the fans will and won’t allow? This is one of the best live-action lightsaber battles in the franchise, but it’s more than that, too. That would be an interesting detail if Filoni is indeed directing The Mandalorian finale for the second season. All names, trademarks and images are copyright their respective owners. Anything less than what I did would really be shorting the audience, because they had looked forward to that for so long. Right now I’m really enjoying the collaboration I have with Jon Favreau on Mandalorian. I always find it cool to see high-profile put any ego aside and just sit quietly and listen instead of needing to command the attention of a room, and it’s clear that everyone around that table has a reverence for Filoni’s vast knowledge of all things Star Wars and they’re eager to learn anything they can from him. He is the truest lover of the material. The Mandalorian himself, Pedro Pascal said, "You wouldn’t be able to do this show without Dave Filoni. Maybe they related to some of the difficulties she had or some of the challenges she had. Lucasfilm creative art manager posted the same photo on Twitter but also pointed this out: Just a reminder for you Star Wars speculators out there that TV episodes aren’t necessarily filmed in release order. Jon Favreau confirmed that he would finally be directing at least one episode this season. All these other events that were covered, were covered by George, and that’s where they’re important and from his perspective is important. But the first episode drew fans in and helped kick off this exciting new era of Star Wars on the small screen. It also spoke to something that I discussed with George (Lucas) over the years as far as the aftermath of the Clone Wars. They set their sabers down, they tried to find different paths to helping people than perhaps, you know, being violent, and so there is an old idea there. Even though the credits have rolled on Clone Wars, Filoni has left the Star Wars canon with a character who will thrive for decades to come, and that’s young female Togruta Jedi Ahsoka Tano. So, you have to be managing the expectations of this versus the reality for the characters in the moment, because they don’t know. While some of the Star Wars faithful have become disgruntled with the direction of the franchise in Last Jedi and Rise of Skywalker, they also exclaim Filoni as the savior of Star Wars, particularly with his big fingerprints on Mandalorian, and of course, Clones. Rick Famuyiwa, Deborah Chow, Bryce Dallas Howard and Taikia Watiti all directed episodes in the first season, with Famuyiwa and Chow each directing two episodes, just as Filoni did. He also portrays Trapper Wolf. Hopefully we’ll hear more of their names soon. Hear Filoni explain the significance of the duel below. The reason why we never saw too many Jedis fighting against the Empire is the fact that a lot of them felt that they failed in their goal to protect the Republic, and they were all deceived. So, that had its own challenges. Those are the challenges, but that’s what I love to do, and I was really just pleased with how it all turned out. I think that her being very young and very brash and the way that she behaves allowed the greater scope for her to have a maturity, for her to progress and grow as a character that over a long period of time paid off. So, that remains intact, because I’m over here talking more about the Ahsoka Tano/Rex saga, which is the end of the Clone Wars proper. Star Wars devotees will no doubt recognize Dave Filoni as one of the X-wing pilots.

But near the end of the newest episode of Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian, the behind-the-scenes documentary series detailing the production of the Disney+ original show, Dave Filoni explained his reading of that fight and put the entire thing in a new context. FILONI: I was fortunate enough to learn directly from George Lucas kind of the do’s and don’ts, and it was a learning experience. We’re having a great time making that show, and you know, we’ll see. While she didn’t show up in Season 6, she appeared in Filoni’s co-created animated series Star Wars: Rebels (which takes place 14 years after Sith) to face her old mentor, now turned as Darth Vader.

I always try to look at it as relating to kids, because I was a kid when I first watched Star Wars. I think it’s a natural part of enjoying this, and I think there’s always potential for further stories. The animated series was a massive ratings success, and at one point was one of Cartoon Network’s highest-rated shows during the series’ initial run and delivered five Daytime Emmys and two wins to Filoni. … FILONI: The middle four episodes, which is kind of Ahsoka on a walkabout, experiencing what it’s like to be living in the New Republic in this time of war, were a pretty difficult arc. George and I, we never really talked in those terms as far as what the fans would allow. DEADLINE: With Clone Wars over, do you think we’ll see another season of Rebels? People were too busy arguing about Jar Jar Binks to notice this. He is a "foundling" who was rescued at a young age by Mandalorians during the Clone Wars. I’ve got a bunch of things that I’m preparing and mulling over. Also, what was your thought process on how deep you’d take the last season into Revenge of the Sith? Web design by Pro Blog Design. I’m trying to maintain the integrity of what George did in his work and just say, this is how it went for Ahsoka and Rex. The fight isn’t about any of the combatants at all…it’s about Anakin Skywalker. I mean, it’s definitely something that I left hanging at the end and part of that reason is just it’s always nice in my mind when there’s another story.

I think that there’s enough shared sensibilities of what we all liked about Star Wars as far as this being an adventure, it’s fun, there’s a great deal of tension and mythology, but you know, everyone can come at it from a different point of view. FILONI: I couldn’t speak to anything at this point. I was really happy with how that series turned out, and I feel like we got to tell a complete story there. I thought it was really compelling and the imagery of the lightsaber and him holding it; that spoke so much. Affiliate links used when available. Fifteen years later, I’m still here, so I guess I get it right most of the time, I hope. It was a surprising move, especially when the series was also executive produced by experienced director Jon Favreau, who had films like Iron Man and The Lion King remake under his belt. I think when people go and watch Luke Skywalker as a young man in A New Hope, a lot of people commented, “Oh, he sounds whiny.” George knew to begin with a character of inexperience, whether we like that or not, and grow them in a way that the audience came to respect them.

Fanboys erupted with glee earlier this spring when news hit that Rosario Dawson would reportedly play Ahsoka in the second season of The Mandalorian, a show that Filoni also writes, directs and serves as EP on with creator Jon Favreau. pic.twitter.com/ihuGXQdgiT. And so it was easy at the end to kind of split things apart, and it wasn’t really about saying, “Here’s the greatest hits of things, remember this from Revenge of the Sith?” All the scenes that you saw and moments that cross over are actually very relevant for Ahsoka and Rex, and at a certain point I needed that story to kind of go in its own direction to make sure I wasn’t violating the space that belonged to the Anakin Skywalker saga. I think people like Ahsoka because they relate to her. Mandalorian director and voice-over actor, and future Star Wars director Taika Waititi reportedly calls Filoni “an encyclopedia of all the Star Wars Lore.” The dust may have settled from Clone Wars, but Filoni remains an important Jedi master for many years to come in the galaxy far, far away. Ahsoka doesn’t know it’s the last time she’s going to see Anakin. If my team and I have had any success now, it’s improving and getting better over the years, and learning from George. DAVE FILONI: No. He promptly found a mentor in George Lucas, learning and working with him on building out the Star Wars universe between the feature installments of Star Wars: Episode II: Attack of the Clones and Star Wars, Episode III: Revenge of the Sith in Clone Wars. You know, to be in that situation in a live-action show with someone like him and a fantastic team of people, it’s a really fortunate place for me to land because you’re with people that can really help you and realize the things that you’re trying to do story-wise. DEADLINE: What about conceiving another animation project? To hear Star Wars guru Dave Filoni tell it, the entire arc of the prequel trilogy hinges on that moment. Not really. Kids related to Ahsoka because she was a kid first and foremost like them. FILONI: Well, I don’t know. As for the rest of the directors working on the second season of The Mandalorian, there are only two we know about for sure. For Star Wars: The Clone Wars producer-scribe-supervising director-animator Dave Filoni, the animated series has represented a 15-year journey that began when he arrived at Lucasfilm from Nickelodeon’s The Last Airbender. Cinematographer Baz Idoine posted the following to Instagram to announce production wrap on season 2: As you can see on the production clapboard, the name Dave Filoni is listed as director of whatever this scene was. Do you feel you’re continually walking a tightrope in regard to how they might react? But first, before I decide where it’s going to go, I need to decide on a story I want to tell, and invest my time in, because it’s a lot. She was one of the first characters he drew upon arrival at Lucasfilm, and drew inspiration from the kid Attack of the Clones character Ashla and the early Episodes trilogy character Shaak Ti, as well as making “little nods to Princess Mononoke,” Filoni tells Deadline. However, just because this is the clapboard for the final day of production for the second season of The Mandalorian, that doesn’t mean Filoni is directing the season finale. The presence of the koi fish on the clap board is interesting. DEADLINE: You mentioned George Lucas instructing you on the do’s and don’ts in the universe. Some fans in the thread on Twitter that Phil Szotstak created have been wondering if they may have some kind spiritual tie to Filoni’s work on the two-part season finale of Book One: Water from the Avatar: The Last Airbender animated series. On top of that, The Mandalorian cast member Carl Weathers will be getting behind the camera this season too. Dave Filoni interview on 'Clone Wars' series finale, future of Ahsoka Tano, 'Rebels', 'Mandalorian, what he learned from George Lucas DEADLINE: Did you direct a couple of episodes for Season 2 of The Mandalorian like you did for Season 1? To me, the best thing about this video is seeing directors like Bryce Dallas Howard and Rick Famuyiwa and even The Mandalorian showrunner Jon Favreau held in rapt silence at the feet of a Star Wars master. DEADLINE: The ending for Clone Wars, where Vader finds the lightsaber of his old Padawan Ahsoka — was that the finale you were always envisioning or was there an alternative? So that’s why I didn’t go too far into [Sith]. Affiliate links used when available. First for me there’s a story and then I have to decide what’s the best medium, and I think there are certain avenues open to me at this point. Alhough initially deemed by some Star Wars fans as being too whiny, Ahsoka was eventually embraced as she grew from being Anakin Skywalker’s Padawan to a warrior who parted ways with the Jedi order at the end of Clones’ fifth season. It was one of the things that really drove me to thinking, well, it would be great to have a complete feeling like that for Clone Wars, so now to have both is really great.

What is about her in your opinion that has mesmerized fans? It can be hard when your older brother is somebody that’s impressive and somebody that’s sure of himself.

All Rights reserved. It’s a path intended to inform a different point of view for her on the entire war. Do you think we’ll ever see another continuation of that storyline? FILONI: I just did one episode this coming season. I think also it was an interesting way in these four parts to tell a complete story of Anakin [Skywalker] that’s not the same as the film, and one of the things that I was very careful to do is, while I am near the film and paralleling the film, and sometimes interwoven with it, I never want to change anything that’s happening in there or say if you look at it from this way, it’s different. The more real world you make that experience as a character, even if the situation itself is fantastic, the better it relates to the audience, and that’s something that George reinforced time and again to me while I made this stuff. I always felt if you’re just chasing what fans are going to like or not like, I don’t think you’ll ever get done. ‘The Mandalorian’ Season 2 Bringing Back Dave Filoni to Direct Again, finally be directing at least one episode, ‘The Mandalorian’ Season 1 Recap: Get Caught Up Before Season 2 Begins This Week, ‘The Mandalorian’ Honest Trailer: This Bounty Hunter’s Childhood Was Literally Ruined By the Prequels, Palpatine, Kylo Ren, Baby Yoda and More: 10 Things You Need to Know From ‘The Star Wars Book’. It was more his experiences making the films and more his sensibilities that we always discussed. FILONI: Yeah, I’m really focused on that, working with Jon, and we’re having a great time. I had to make a real decision to have Anakin and Ahsoka reunite, and that took about half of that first episode. Working with George I would be able to watch firsthand decisions being made and instincts he had, and I’ve tried the best I can to replicate that, but ultimately as a fan, I put these stories in the context that I like. Why the Lightsaber Duel in ‘The Phantom Menace’ is the Most Important Moment in the Prequel Trilogy, According to Dave Filoni, The ‘Star Wars’ Prequel Trilogy Gets Recapped in 8 Minutes By Josh Gad as Olaf the Snowman, ‘Star Wars: The High Republic’ Introduces Gnarly New Villains, Including Amorphous Beings and Marauders, Watch the Trailer for a ‘Star Wars: The High Republic’ VR Jedi Adventure within ‘Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge’, Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace. And so a lot of them realized that fighting a war maybe isn’t the best way and created violence. Either way, this series will undoubtedly attract and utilize great filmmakers out there, both established and rising talents. I love that people are thinking about these stories in the same way that I wondered about many stories. I would be wrong for it, and that would be fine, but I had to take my crack at doing it off of what he taught me and see if it worked, and so far so good. They’ve all earned their place in the galaxy, so to speak, so I’m sure there’s some more of them to do. So there’s a 50/50 chance that Dave Filoni is directing the second season finale, but he’s at least directing one episode. Privacy Policy / Cookie Policy. Dave Filoni, a supervising director on Clone Wars and executive producer on Rebels, is now an executive producer on The Mandalorian, the Star Wars show that’s launching the … FILONI: Oh, I think it’s possible. Pascal has described his character as Clint Eastwood-esque with advanced combat skills and of "questionable moral character". I don’t really ever think of it in those terms. That’s what makes this all work. I have a lot of ideas and I’m really fortunate that I’ve had the opportunity now to work in both animation and live-action, so just getting that exposure is interesting. DEADLINE: I ask not only because of Ahsoka Tano’s ending here with Clone Wars, but there are many who’d like to see the arc of Sabine and the black-bladed lightsaber. Los Angeles Coronavirus Update: Public Health Urges Residents To Avoid Large Halloween Gatherings As County Sees Upwards 1,300 New Cases & 15 New Deaths, 'Halloween' Director John Carpenter: The Film That Lit My Fuse, Focus Features Eyes Summer 2021 Release For Cannes Market Pick-Up ‘Blue Bayou’, Scott Derrickson To Direct ‘Black Phone’ For Blumhouse & Universal, Facebook Marketing Exec Kamala Avila-Salmon Joins Lionsgate As Studio’s First Head Of Inclusive Content, Hollywood Mourns The Original O07: Tributes From Daniel Craig, Stephen King; Career In Pictures, Focus Features-Amblin’s ‘Come Play’ Tops Halloween Weekend Frame, Showbiz Activists Make Final Push In Remaining Days Of Election; Joe Biden Again Slams Netflix & Amazon Over Taxes, Eli Roth: The Film That Lit My Fuse, Halloween Edition. The Mandalorian season 2 directors list has added another name, and it's Star Wars veteran Dave Flioni, who directed two episodes in the first season. That’s at least three episodes accounted for, so if the second season also has eight episodes like the first season, there could be as many as five other directors. The best moment from Star Wars: The Phantom Menace is burned into the brains of anyone who’s seen it: as John Williams’ epic score blares, Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi face down Darth Maul, who ignites his double-bladed lightsaber and engages in a spectacular two-on-one fight. DEADLINE: What has the biggest challenge been in wrapping up the final season of Clone Wars? I always thought “Duel of the Fates,” the John Williams track, was referring to the symbolic fight between good and evil as embodied in the Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan vs. Darth Maul. When The Mandalorian debuted on Disney+ last fall, the first episode marked the live-action directorial debut of The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels executive producer Dave Filoni (seen above left).
