On Tuesday, the cast and crew of The Mandalorian were among the top talents in television entertainment nominated for the 72^nd Emmy Awards.

The Lucasfilm and Disney+ series, created by Jon Favreau, is a contender for Outstanding Drama Series -- as well as 12 other categories -- for a total of 15 nominations that run the gamut from acting to cinematography, costumes to special effects, and include recognition for the show’s haunting score.

And Star Wars Resistance, the Disney Channel series from Lucasfilm animation set in the time of the sequel trilogy, snagged a nomination for Outstanding Children’s Program.

“I am so proud of everyone who contributed to make these Emmy nominations possible and am thankful to be working with such a talented group of people," says Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy. "Disney+ took a big risk with us on The Mandalorian and I can’t thank them enough. The creative brilliance of Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni coupled with the incredible innovations of ILM and Skywalker Sound truly made our first Star Wars live-action series groundbreaking. Much gratitude to Bob Iger for launching a platform which inspired an enormous rush of creativity among Lucasfilm storytellers, artists, and engineers. I can't wait to see 'the Child' in his tux!"

“It’s such an honor to be recognized amongst so many wonderful shows," says Jon Favreau, executive producer of The Mandalorian. "We had a great time making it and being nominated is an unexpected bonus. Congratulations to the incredibly talented cast and crew on The Mandalorian for their hard work, and to our partners at Disney+ and Lucasfilm. Thank you to the Television Academy from all of us for embracing the show.”

"It's so exciting to see the nominations knowing how hard the entire team worked to bring The Mandalorian and the Child to life. I'm just so happy for everyone involved," says Dave Filoni, executive producer of The Mandalorian. "There are so many great stories to tell in the galaxy far, far away. The nominations for The Mandalorian and Star Wars Resistance prove what the fans already know. Star Wars is forever. Congratulations to everyone, may the Force be with you."
