A release date for The Mandalorian season three just dropped in via X-Wing. I can’t wait to see my favourite lil wrinkly green guy Grogu’s face back on my screen. It’s been far too long.
Disney+ has announced The Mandalorian
will be back on our sweaty little screens in 2023.
This is absolutely The Fkn Way.
So what do we know about season three so far? Join me on this journey through a galaxy far, far away.
Disney confirmed at Star Wars Celebration in California that we can expect to see in February 2023. Yieeeew!
Obviously prepare some delicious soup — or maybe frog eggs — for your viewing pleasure.
Of course our titular Mandalorian, Din “Mando” Djarin ( being ruggedly sexy even with a big metal helmet on) and the baby Yoda formerly known as The Child — now known as Grogu — will be returning.
According to, exec producer and confirmed two other returning characters.
will be back as fellow Mandalorian Bo-Katan Kryze and will portray bounty-hunter-turned-magistrate Greef Karga.
According to , a teaser trailer shown at Stars Wars Celebration painted Bo-Tan Kryze as a potential baddie. The Direct reckons it’ll be because our Mando has the Darksaber instead of her.
There’s no word on whether the eternally-fashionable Luke Skywalker will be back but hey, a girl can dream right?
Obviously while we haven’t had a season of since 2020, we’ve still been privy to his story thanks to .
So if you haven’t watched it, scroll away with haste.
Basically, because Mando has the Darksaber he’s kind of sort of the leader of the Mandalorians. Specifically he’s told by the Armorer () that “whoever wields [the Darksaber] leads Mandalore”. As you may have guessed from context clues, Mandalore is the home planet of the Mandalorians which was largely destroyed in a war.
But then after a big ‘ol duel with Pre Vizsla () our man(do) Din is cast out from the Mandalorians because he’s taken off his mask before. JDI (Jedi Damn It).
Then in episode six, wee Grogu was given the choice to train as a Jedi under Luke Skywalker or go back to his bestie-slash-metal-dad Din. In episode seven the pair were united and harts were warmed across the galaxy.
Considered yourself caught up — at fkn lightspeed.
It seems the main plot of season three will be all about our Mando returning to his home planet of Mandalore. The goal? Being forgiven for his “transgressions”. Spicy.
If you want to catch up on the first two seasons of or on , you can catch them on .
Until February 2023, we’ll be keeping you posted with any updates on season three.
May the Force be— well, you get the idea.
