Cara Dune will remain a part of the story, according to the Disney+ series’ team.

Cara was a big part and continues as a character to be part of the world. It had to be addressed in the creative and [Jon Favreau] took the time to think about that,” executive producer and director Rick Famuyiwa said to Deadline.

“It was something that was discussed as we knew it was going to have impact on the show, but at the same time, what has been at the heart of the show are the two characters — Din Djarin and Grogu — so ultimately it felt like a servicing of that, and around the Mandalorians.”

Producer and Lucasfilm creative director Dave Filoni also responded to whether the actress will be back again for Season 3.

“It’s a big galaxy and we have many characters in it — many characters are fighting for their screen time. We’ll just have to see as the season unfolds what the adventures are, but it’s a great character, someone who was vital to Din Djarin’s beginnings; we’ll see if he has evolved beyond that.”

“Now Season 3 is mainly dealing with Mandalorians and the Mandalorian saga, the Mandalorian tale. [There’s] different characters he’s met since Bo-Katan take a lot more prominence, which makes sense where his arc is going, the story of him and Grogu specifically.”

“The hardest thing is finding time and space for everyone out there. George [Lucas] used to talk about when he was making the prequels, he had so many great characters and they all wanted screen time. How do you do it when your job is to tell the story of Anakin Skywalker? I relate to that,” he continued.

“‘The Mandalorian’ in the title is the story about the Mandalorian and his people.”
