Specifically, Favreau highlighted how Robert Rodriguez’s participation in The Mandalorian influenced his episode of the series.

He delved deeply into the action, making it more elaborate. The action could be considered sparsely detailed. This allowed ample space for directors to infuse their unique visions, often leading to revisions based on their intuition. I prefer each episode to showcase distinct characters and embody the director’s style.

Favreau went on to explain that the method he employed for “The Mandalorian and Grogu” was quite comparable, and although he was the director, there were additional perspectives needed to shape the film’s narrative.

When it comes to scripting, we follow a familiar approach. As the story unfolds, I prefer to pen down the narrative of the action itself, rather than detailing each shot. That’s because our talented team of storyboard artists and pre-visualization experts handle that part, along with animatics. Then, I team up with exceptional animators like Hal Hickel and the crew, as well as John Nolan and everyone at ILM. Having worked together on various television seasons, we have a strong understanding of each other’s creative styles. So, I aim to allow ample space for everyone to contribute their unique ideas.
