The Mandalorian, the Disney+ Star Wars live-action spin-off about a man in a mask (highly topical) protecting a child, fittingly has multiple Emmy Nominations for its first season.

A total of 15 nominations: Outstanding Guest Actor In A Drama Series (Giancarlo Esposito as Moff Gideon), Outstanding Character Voice-Over Performance (Taika Waititi as IG-11) along with Outstanding Production Design, Outstanding Cinematography For A Single-Camera Series, Outstanding Fantasy/Sci-Fi Costumes, Outstanding Single-Camera Picture Editing For A Drama Series, Outstanding Prosthetic Makeup, Outstanding Music Composition, Outstanding Sound Editing, Outstanding Sound Mixing, Outstanding Special Visual Effects and Outstanding Stunt Coordination.

"Having so many categories recognized for our team this morning was a lovely reminder of the outstanding camaraderie and vision we experienced making this show," said Matthew Wood, Co-Supervising Sound Editor. "All of us are Star Wars fans at heart, and it’s been a dream to be able to put our energies behind that love and be heard! This is the way!"

The Mandalorian's second season is still on track for later this year on Disney+.
