Favreau, who serves as writer and executive producer on the project, also revealed the work on the second season of the show is underway.
"We're working on season two, writing, prepping with the directors and getting ready to direct myself, actually.
"I didn't get a chance the last time around because I was doing 'Lion King'. So I'll step in for one of them," the "Iron Man" and "Jungle Book" director told Entertainment Weekly.
The upcoming live-action Star Wars series stars Pedro Pascal in the title role as the lone Outer Rim bounty hunter.
