He holds out a beeping tracker with a blinking red light, and the scene cuts to the character entering a bar with drums pounding.  > In the featurette, Favreau said the series starts with the bounty-hunting Mandalorian tracking down quarries. "This is a character you've never met before and period of time you've never seen before," Favreau says. The story takes place five years after the events of Return of the Jedi.
