ProSieben shows first episode in March on Free TV

The Mandalorian can also be seen for free for at least one episode. For the remaining episodes, Disney requires money and a subscription.

Already in mid-March we can start the pilot episode of the Star Wars series The Mandalorian as well as Star Wars Episode 8: Watch the last Jedi for the first time on German television. Because shortly before the new subscription service Disney + starts here in Germany, the television station ProSieben shows the two free TV premieres from the far, far away galaxy.

When does the whole thing go? According to the official press release, it starts on Sunday, March 22nd from 8:15 p.m. ProSieben then shows the first Mandalorian episode first, followed by episode 8 at 8:50 p.m. Star Wars Episode 5: The Empire Strikes Back starts at 5:50 p.m.

The rest of Star Wars ends up in a paid subscription

All of this apparently serves as a promotion for Disney + because the Subscription service starts two days later on March 24th

, The other episodes of the first season of Mandalorian then run there, but Disney probably does not plan to publish the episodes in one fell swoop, but rather every week. The series has been running in the USA since November 2019, so all episodes are already finished. If you want to see them, you have to spend money on the subscription.

The second season of The Mandalorian will start on Disney + in October – at the same time in Germany and the USA. So unlike Season 1 in this country, we don't have to wait any longer than others.

If you’re wondering what The Mandalorian is all about: The series shows the adventures of a Mandalorian bounty hunter (played by Pedro Pascal) and even if we don't want to spoil too much, a baby Yoda also plays an important role.
