Photos from the Manhattan Beach set show the show’s otherworldy architecture sitting upon a walled-off, sandy lot.

However, there are also reports claiming production won’t begin until spring of 2021.
Deadline reported that the ‘confusion’ comes from the Lucasfilm side which operates under a thick veil of secrecy and that the nearer of the production start dates could actually be for a related series.
‘One explanation could be rumors that another Mandalorian-related project, I hear possibly a Boba Fett miniseries, would film first, starting next week, with The Mandalorian Season 3 following after a monthlong break,’ the outlet claimed.
The second season of The Mandalorian debuted late last month, with star Pedro Pascal returning as the titular character.
