The place’s Grogu Through the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy?

Success in Star Wars comes with issues. While you introduce characters as well-liked and momentous because the Mandalorian and his sidekick Grogu in time durations earlier than films and occasions which have already been made, folks need to know: What occurred to those characters? In different phrases: Why didn’t Mando present as much as assist the Resistance within the Star Wars sequels? If Grogu is principally a serious Jedi-in-the-making, how come he didn’t attempt to cease Palpatine from by some means returning?

The creators of The Mandalorian are fascinated by this stuff too. The Mandalorian author/director/producer Dave Filoni advised The Hollywood Reporter that he and the remainder of the present’s inventive staff “discuss many various issues” about what occurs to Mando and Grogu after the eventual finish of the Disney+ sequence to elucidate their absence from movies like The Pressure Awakens, The Final Jedi, and The Rise of Skywalker.

Whereas 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 final of the Jedi will you be,” to Luke, I took that very actually. Effectively, now we all know that’s something however true. There are a lot of totally different folks that would wield the pressure, and possibly 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 smart. However in my expertise, there’s positively a method to weave the whole lot collectively and make it thrilling. It’s potential it might by no means even should 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. As a result of there isn’t a approach on the planet that Star Wars fandom will ever settle for the reason of Grogu’s absence from these films as “Oh, nicely finally Moff Gideon killed him.” Child Yoda can by no means die. So it will have to be defined definitively sooner or later.

The Season 3 premiere of The Mandalorian is now streaming on Disney+.
