The Mandalorian 3, Jon Favreau Confirms: “Grogu Will Be More Powerful In The Force”

Also during the world premiere of the third season of The Mandalorian, which debuts today on Disney+ with the first episode available for streaming, Jon Favreau anticipated the power level of Grogu during the new episodes. The author and director of the series have confirmed that what we will see will be a more powerful character.

“ Well, it leveled up a bit,” Favreau said, alluding to what we saw in episodes 6 and 7 of the spin-off The Book of Boba Fett. ” Grogu has had the opportunity to study with the greatest Jedi around and I believe that the time spent with Luke Skywalker will come in very handy “. Instead of just being a burden, Grogu from now on will be ” someone who can be helpful,” Favreau added.

TVLine then interviewed Katee Sackhoff, who plays Bo-Katan Kryze, who was upset the last time we saw her on The Mandalorian that Din Djarin had unintentionally become the rightful owner of the Darksaber.

“ I have one question that haunts me: How did she lose it? Because last we saw her, in the animated series, she had it, ” Sackhoff recalled. “ She believes she needs the Darksaber to rule and believes she’s the right person to lead her people and bring them together again, but something has changed in her. I’d say she feels a little sorry for herself .”

For sure there will be time to answer this question, since the third season of The Mandalorian has just started, and here – as Rick Famuyiwa said – many Star Wars stories will reach their climax. Today, in fact, the first episode is available on Disney+. As for the expansive Star Wars television universe, two new directors have joined The Acolyte, the first series set in the High Republic era arriving in 2024.
