We also found out that Mando isn't a typical Mandalorian. Moff Gideon shows off the Darksaber, which he lost in the season 2 finale. It seems likely that he'll join Bo-Katan's mission to some degree, but the Darksaber will remain a source of tension.

In the season finale, Mando took possession of the Darksaber and inadvertently became the leader of the Mandalorians. She was on a mission to retake their home-world Mandalore and get the Darksaber (a Mandalorian symbol of leadership) back from Moff Gideon. However, the narrative shifted to Mando and Grogu in the last few episodes - the pair reunited after the little guy rejected Luke's training and returned to his armored space dad.ĭuring season 2, Mando (real name Din Djarin) also ran into another group of Mandalorians, led by Bo-Katan. It initially seemed like the bounty hunter's solo show would tell a completely separate story. The second season ended with Luke Skywalker taking Grogu for Jedi training and a post-credits scene teasing Boba Fett's show. (This room features prominently in the final episodes of The Clone Wars.) Mando allies the Armorer and Greef Karga will also return.Īction sequences included massive Imperial Star Destroyers and suggested that Mando will lead some of his fellow Mandalorians into battle. Former Mandalorian leader Bo-Katan Kryze has a regal moment sitting on a throne similar to the one in Mandalorian capital Sundari. Grogu is along for the ride, and still ridiculously cute. There's some tension between Mando and Bo-Katan at first, but a mutual respect soon develops.

It's been ruined by the Empire, but Mando must return to the planet to atone for removing his helmet. The trailers hinted that we'll be going to Mandalore, a world we've previously seen only in animated shows The Clone Wars and Rebels, along with a flashback glimpse in The Book of Boba Fett. The company didn't respond to CNET's request for comment about the release date. Being part of The Mandalorian has been such a wonderful experience! Cannot wait until the February 2023 start of new season on Disney+!! #ThisIsTheWay #GreefKarga #BePeace - Carl Weathers September 21, 2022
