Success in Star Wars comes with issues. When you introduce characters as fashionable and momentous as the Mandalorian and his sidekick Grogu in time intervals earlier than motion pictures and occasions which have already been made, folks wish to know: What occurred to those characters? In different phrases: Why didn’t Mando present as much as assist the Resistance in the Star Wars sequels? If Grogu is principally a serious Jedi-in-the-making, how come he didn’t attempt to cease Palpatine from one way or the other returning?
The creators of The Mandalorian are eager about this stuff too. The Mandalorian author/director/producer Dave Filoni instructed The Hollywood Reporter that he and the remainder of the present’s inventive workforce “talk about many different things” about what occurs to Mando and Grogu after the eventual finish of the Disney+ collection to elucidate their absence from movies like The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, and The Rise of Skywalker.
While Filoni wouldn’t give a concrete reply to the place Grogu was, he did say this…
As a child, when Yoda stated, “When gone am I, the last of the Jedi will you be,” to Luke, I took that very actually. Well, now we all know that’s something however true. There are many alternative folks that would wield the drive, and perhaps Luke is the final Jedi so far as what Yoda would take into account a Jedi. So we’ll simply have to attend and see how the story evolves and what is sensible. But in my expertise, there’s positively a strategy to weave every little thing collectively and make it thrilling. It’s attainable it might by no means even must cross over with what we noticed [in the sequel trilogy] if the story has us some place else.
They’re going to have to elucidate this some day. Because there isn’t any approach in the world that Star Wars fandom will ever settle for the rationalization of Grogu’s absence from these motion pictures as “Oh, well eventually Moff Gideon killed him.” Baby Yoda can by no means die. So it will should be defined definitively sooner or later.
The Season 3 premiere of The Mandalorian is now streaming on Disney+.
