Multiple Directors to Helm Episodes Of Live-Action <br />'Star Wars' TV Show 'Star Wars Rebels' Executive Producer Dave Filoni is slated to direct the premiere of <br />'The Mandalorian.' 'Thor Ragnarok's' Taika Waititi and <br />'Dope's' Rick Famuyiwa will also <br />helm episodes. Bryce Dallas Howard and <br />'The High Cost of Living's' Deborah Chow <br />will also direct. The program is written and executive produced by 'Iron Man' director <br />Jon Favreau. That level of talent definitely aligns with the show's reported <br />$100 million+ budget. Not much information has been revealed about the program. The only thing fans know is that it is set between 'Return of the Jedi' and <br />'The Force Awakens.' 'The Mandalorian' is expected to premiere <br />next year on Disney's unnamed <br />subscription streaming service.
