With the release of The Mandalorian A little over six weeks into Season 3, Lucasfilm released a new trailer on Monday after a two-year hiatus, giving us a glimpse of Din Djarin and Grogu’s next adventures.
The third season of Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni’s Star Wars series is set after the rumored 2022 side story. Boba Fett’s bookShe advanced things considerably for the unlikely pairing of armored bounty hunter and cute force baby. Grogu has left his Jedi training with Luke Skywalker to reunite with Din (Pedro Pascal, currently starring). The last of us). For his part, Din was expelled from his cult, the Children of the Watch, for allowing himself to be shown without his helmet. Only a return to Mandalore can reinstate him as a true Mandalorian and seemingly begin an odyssey to the Mandalorian homeworld in Season 3.
Din also still has the legendary Darksaber, which supposedly entitles him to rule Mandalore, but Katee Sackhoff’s Bo-Katan will likely have something to say about that. Alongside Sackhoff, Carl Weathers returns to the show’s cast as Greef Karga, and it looks like both have significant roles to play in the next chapter of the wandering space western. Giancarlo Esposito is also back as the sneaky Moff Gideon, and veteran character actor Christopher Lloyd (Back to the Future‘s Doc Brown) joins the cast. Oh, and Babu Frik is back.
The Mandalorian Season 3 starts March 1st on Disney Plus.
