Pedro Pascal fans are in for a treat this month, as The Mandalorian is back for a third season, as he journeys with Grogu/ Baby Yoda to the galaxy far, far away in hopes of restoring his lost honour on the planet of Mandalore. As the new owner of the Darksaber, stakes are higher now for Din Djarin, as Bo-Katan Kryze (Katee Sackhoff) hopes to claim the armament from him. New episodes of The Mandalorian season 3 drop every Wednesday, at 1:30pm IST. Pascal will also make an appearance this Monday, March 6, for a new episode of The Last of Us, as his character Joel continues to reel from his near-fatal injury, while Ellie (Bella Ramsey) gets into trouble with a group of god-fearing, cannibalistic survivors. The nine-episode-long season concludes later this month on March 13.

Based on James Cameron’s eponymous 1994 film, True Lies follows Helen Tasker (Ginger Gonzaga), a bored, suburban housewife who comes upon the shocking discovery that her husband Harry (Steve Howey) is a highly skilled international spy. With the secret out, she’s soon recruited as his partner and team member, embarking on various covert missions. New episodes of True Lies are out every Thursday. On March 12, check out UnPrisoned, a half-hour comedy that follows Paige Alexander (Kerry Washington), a relationship therapist and mother, whose routine is shaken up when her father gets out of prison and moves in. All 10 episodes of UnPrisoned are out March 12 on Disney+ Hotstar.

On the occasion of Women’s Month, Marvel Studios is releasing a docuseries that salutes the female creatives — both on and off-screen — who brought the iconic superheroes to life via movies and TV series.

Also, don’t miss out on Chang Can Dunk, a sports drama film that follows an unpopular 16-year-old Asian American high school student, who bets the school’s basketball star that he can slam dunk by homecoming. What starts with mockery from his peers over his height — 5′ 8” — soon becomes an obsession for him to become the new star of the school, and hopefully impress his crush. Chang Can Dunk releases March 10 on the platform.

Filling in the K-drama category in March 2023 is Call It Love, where a woman falls in love with the son of her late father’s mistress. New episodes release every Friday.
