The Mandalorian: Speculation/Discussion (please tag spoilers)
"A society grows great when old men plant trees, the shade of which they know they will never sit in. Good people do things for other people. That's it, the end." -- Penelope Wilton in Ricky Gervais's After Life
Wild speculation: we've already met The Mandalorian, and his name is Cobb Vanth. He's the guy who acquires a set of Mandalorian armour on Tatooine (heavily implied to be Boba Fett's armour) in the novel Aftermath, and self-proclaims himself sheriff of a small town because he hates the injustice of lawlessness.
I have no more evidence about the TV series than anyone else, this is just my speculation that I'm putting down now, probably a year before the show debuts

Pedro Pascal as the titular Mandalorian. Pascal is best known for his roles as Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones and Javier Peña in Narcos.
Gina Carano, an MMA fighter who has branched out to acting and is known for her roles as Angel Dust in Deadpool (the villain's female henchman/muscle) and Riley in Fast & Furious 6.
Giancarlo Esposito, known to many as Gus Fring from Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul.
Emily Swallow, who broke through as Dina in Southland, and has since made herself known to genre fans as Kim in The Mentalist and Amara in Supernatural.
Omid Abtahi, who has a pretty extensive resume for a guy who only started acting in 2005. Notable credits include appearances in 24, The Event, Fringe, Homeland, Better Call Saul, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2, and a role on American Gods.
Werner Herzog, who besides having 30-odd acting credits to his name is also a fairly well-known director who did Grizzly Man.
And finally Nick Nolte, who has acting credits going back to 1969, so if you don't know who he is, I can't help you

Sources tell me the story is set about 5 years after the events of Return of the Jedi and is set in the Outer Rim, where people don't know and don't care that the Empire has fallen. Gives them latitude in telling certain stories.

The Mandalorian will have a soundtrack scored by Ludwig Göransson.
Göransson has composed memorable soundtracks for some of the biggest and most lauded movies in recent memory, including Black Panther (for which he has earned Golden Globe Award and Grammy nominations), Creed, Creed II, Venom, and Fruitvale Station. In the realm of television, his credits include the beloved Community and New Girl.
Göransson has produced records for Haim and Chance The Rapper, and he recently received three Grammy nominations for his work with Donald Glover (who should be familiar to Star Wars fans as the young Lando Calrissian in Solo: A Star Wars Story) on the latest Childish Gambino album.
