They are doing the siege of Mandalore. The story everyone wanted: https://io9.gizmodo.com/clone-wars-is-back-to-finish-what-it-started-1827728517 [YT]RI7WyhWZkzk[/YT]
Ok then will they make the episodes based on the script that was adapted into Dark Disciple? I want to see Ventress at least one more time.
I would hope so. As if this is suppose to be the end of TCW, she's a very big part of that, and I would like to see her story ended properly. But I can't remember how big the original scripts were. It might be too many episodes.
If it is 4, I think they could do it. If it is 6, that would be tight. I though it might be 6-8, as I thought it was two different sets of episodes, that ran together. Like how they split up Maul's story arc to avoid telling it all in one go. Even as the episodes run together.
Pretty certain Sons of Dathomir and Dark Disciple were both 4 episode arcs. Sons of Dathomir clearly was, as you could see the episode breaks in the comics. Guess I should start a Clone Wars rewatch.
There is a Filoni interview on the Star Wars website. It will be 12 episodes to finish the series. As recollect from chatter over the years Ashoka and Rex were on Mandalore so we are getting that story any way. Fantastic news. I never thought this would happen.
Even if its just 12 episodes they can still order another season if this performs well enough. It isnt The Clone Wars if episodes dont jump all over the timeline.
