Lucasfilm/Disney Plus
If you have a Disney Plus subscription, you’ll get fresh Baby Yoda in your life again very soon. Season 2 of Star Wars series The Mandalorian drops this Friday, Oct. 30, on Disney’s streaming service, which means it’s time to read the season 1 recap and clear your calendar for Friday night. (What am I saying? No one has Friday night plans anymore.)
See below for a spoiler-free look at how you can watch season 2 of The Mandalorian on Disney Plus.
How do I stream stuff on Disney Plus?
You can access Disney Plus on phones, tablets, computers, connected TVs and streaming media boxes. Disney has global distribution agreements in place with Apple, Amazon, Google, LG, Microsoft, Roku, Samsung and Sony. You can stream Disney Plus on the following devices:
How much does Disney Plus cost?
In the US, the service costs $7 a month. You can also save a bit by plunking down $70 for the annual plan, which works out to $5.83 a month. Unlike Mulan, which costs an additional $30 for US viewers (who don’t wish to wait until Dec. 4), The Mandalorian is free without delay to all Disney Plus subscribers.
International pricing and availability varies. In Australia, Disney Plus costs AU$9 a month or AU$90 a year; UK residents pay £6 per month or £60 a year; and Canadians get charged C$9 a month, or C$90 a year. See our full Disney Plus explainer for more international pricing.
How do I GroupWatch Disney Plus?
Even if your Star Wars-loving family and friends are in different houses, you can still watch The Mandalorian together (sort of) with Disney Plus’ GroupWatch feature. You’ll find the GroupWatch option to the right of the play button, and you can invite up to six people to all stream the show at the same time. Once you’re watching together, you can share emojis to react to the action. Here are the full details on how to GroupWatch Disney Plus.
Is there a trailer I can watch?
The official Mandalorian season 2 trailer dropped last month, and a special-look trailer hit last week. You can watch the official trailer below.
