How Season 3 of the Mandalorian will be a Completely Different Show
Hey everybody and welcome to Leia’s Lair. In today’s video we will be going over how
the third season of the Mandalorian will be a completely different show than season 1 or 2.
The Mandalorian was primarily sold to audiences as a bounty hunter show,
following the exploits of a lone gunman through the Star Wars galaxy's criminal underworld.
It wasn't until the end of that first episode it was revealed the show was about so much more,
as Din Djarin discovered Grogu, who became an instant sensation.
The first two Mandalorian seasons focused largely on Mando and Grogu's relationship,
revealing a touching bond not unlike father and son. However,
as beloved as the pair grew to be, the third season will assuredly be different.
In the season 2 finale, Mando completes his mission by reuniting Grogu with the Jedi.
More specifically, he leaves Grogu in the care of Luke Skywalker to study the ways of the force.
As the two go their separate ways, Mando’s adventures will completely change leading
to a completely different show. It remains unknown whether Grogu will return at some
point in season 3, but it is unlikely he will be around when season 3 starts.That
would severely undermine the emotional conclusion of the season 2 finale,
which felt like the ending of a chapter in Mando and Grogu's respective lives.
The Mandalorian will instead shift its past focus of protecting Grogu and move other established
aspects to the forefront. Chief among those are the Darksaber and the reclaiming of Mandalore,
which were touched upon in the earlier seasons.Prior to the Luke Skywalker scene,
the Mandalorian season 2 finale laid the foundation for tension between Mando and Bo-Katan,
which will be something to explore further in season 3.
By defeating Moff Gideon in combat, Mando is now the owner of the Darksaber, which also makes him
the rightful ruler of Mandalore. Bo-Katan was hoping to take the Darksaber back for herself,
and due to Mandalorian tradition, she's not allowed to just simply take the weapon from Mando.
Moving forward, it will be interesting to see how the Mando Bo-katan dynamic unfolds, as the two
characters had clashing ideologies and didn't always see eye-to-eye. It seems like Mando's
new journey will see him leading the efforts to take back Mandalore, which is something he didn't
express much interest in. He had initially turned down an opportunity to join Bo-Katan's Nite Owls.
Mando was part of the Children of the Watch, which explained his differences with Bo-Katan.
In contrast to the Mandalorians seen in Clone Wars and Rebels, the Children
of the Watch were zealots obsessed with the old Way of the Mandalore. THe second season
of the Mandalorian started challenging some of Mando’s longtime beliefs such as his helmet rule.
Following this into season 3 would allow Mando's character to grow and evolve on a personal level,
moving past the dogmatic views of the Children of the Watch. It would also be interesting to
see more details revealed about Mando’s past as a Child of the Watch and what exactly that meant.
Even without Grogu in tow, there are many fascinating possibilities
for The Mandalorian season 3, and it's necessary to ensure the show's longevity.
Whatever the case may be, we are looking so forward to the third season of the Mandalorian
and can’t wait to see what it has in store for some of our favorite characters.
