Star Wars: The Mandalorian

I get where you're coming from, but that would be a VERY condensed version of what was an entire trilogy of books on its own, which seems pretty thin as a single movie. It would cut so much out for runtime it just wouldn't do the story justice. Maybe two movies, but one? Even the Hobbit had enough material for three movies, and that was a dingle book, that wasn't as long collectively as the Zahn trilogy was!

I think if we wanted to fluff it out, they could possibly seed in a few bits from some of the other books of that timeframe, just for worldbuilding, if nothing else. Maybe a bit of extra background on some of the characters, like Talon Kaard, among others. A flash bavk or two on Mara's early life and training, some of the history of how Thrawn got where he was, that sort of thing. Maybe even a LA version of his involvement in the earlier wars.
