The Mandalorian is one of the most popular series on a streaming platform right now which is why it is understandable for Disney to expand Star Wars.

The call will also discuss further details on the Lion King prequel, as well as the live-action Pinocchio film which allegedly may feature Tom Hanks. The full details of Disney's plans would likely be made public after the investor presentation.
