Disney Plus is set to debut the third season of ‘The Mandalorian.’ Pedro Pascal will return to the iconic armor in new episodes of the Star Wars spin-off as Din Djarin along with his tiny sidekick Grogru, previously known as “The Child.” The series has been met with applause from critics and fans alike, with one crew member saying that the new season will be “the most ambitious yet.”
Executive producer Rick Famuyiwa spoke with SFX magazine where he praised the upcoming adventures of the Mandalorian and the looming threat of the Empire.
Famuyiwa said, “There’s certainly something that Teva has been having an ear to in terms of what the Empire may be up to, so yeah, I think we’ll certainly see some of that throughout the season.”
“For now we know that Moff Gideon has been taken away, but the larger forces of what might be out there as the remnant Empire still exist. Something that hangs over some of this season is [the question of] what that element might be. There are things going on that our characters may not be aware of, but certainly, Teva has some inkling about,” he continued.
Giancarlo Esposito portrayed Moff Gideon in the first two seasons of the Star Wars series, revealing that he possessed the legendary Dark Saber which comes into Din’s care as revealed in ‘The Book of Boba Fett.’
“I think every season you try to tell a simple story that connects,” Famuyiwa added.
“I can say that this season has certainly been the biggest yet, the most ambitious yet – it was almost crazy to try to do everything we’ve tried to do this season – but I think that ambition is just driven by wanting to continue to make these stories great,” he explained. “For me, the foundation has always been that simple relationship between Mando and Grogu. The adventures get bigger and the characters you meet might be as iconic as Luke Skywalker, but it’s always in the service of that simple story. That’s taken us to bigger and bigger places, and certainly, this season is the biggest yet.”
