“I love going to the movies and never say never, but for now there is a lot I have to tell on the small screen,” confessed Jon Favreau, the creator of the galactic series that has once again given us reasons to discuss on networks. And it is that The thrilling ending of ‘The Mandalorian’ on Disney+ changes an essential element of the Star Wars universe that, Favreau involved or not in the creation of new films, could have a great impact on what we see on the big screen.

And it is that since we found out that Star Wars is preparing 3 new films, everything in its television successes makes us look for clues about the feature films that will expand the franchise at the box office in the coming years. This has served us as an excuse to explore how much season 3 of ‘The Mandalorian’ has taught us, with special emphasis on the details of the universe that have changed forever.

Of course, we invite you to come back to this article when you see its ending or get ready for spoilers the size of bantha dung.

The secrets of ‘The Mandalorian’: End of the story of Grogu and Moff Gideon

So far we have come. Although ‘The Mandalorian’ has managed to climb to the top of our list of all Star Wars series from worst to best for its ability to give us a good dose of adventure every week, its capitular character has been decimated by the strong presence of certain main plots that were intended to tell a great story.

Baby Yoda, the Internet’s favorite mascot, has ceased to be an unknown quantity to become a member of the family. We already know who is now called Din Grogu, a young user of the Force who, during the execution of Order 66, was saved and hidden in extremis.. Why was he being desperately wanted by the remnants of the Empire? For dreams of greatness Moff Gideon, as cruel a villain as he seemed, but more psychotic and independent than our suspicions suggested..

Far from working in the shadow of the New Republic to reinforce an Imperium headgear (which too), Gideon’s dark plans were much more individualistic, focused on fulfilling a personal obsession: building an army of beskar-armored clones of himself. and sensitive to the Force.

With this discovery we understand the dealings with Kaminoan discoveries, the villain’s personal grudge against the Mandalorians and, finally, the need to take over Grogua being up to the midichlorians who had already told us that he only needed “his blood”, an element from which he hoped to obtain a kind of formula so that his clones could handle themselves as Jedis.

All this closes the fundamental narrative arc of the three seasons of ‘The Mandalorian’, but Jon Favreau and (probably more) Dave Filoni have been giving us new data and knowledge about the Mandalorian culture, after the broadcast of the final chapter, you will see your history rewritten again.

The history of Mandalore has changed with ‘The Mandalorian’

We already knew a lot about Mandalore thanks to the great ‘Star Wars: The Clone Wars’ and ‘Star Wars Rebels’, but even the acolytes of the animated series have seen how ‘The Mandalorian’ dared to immerse himself in his culture a little more, now leaving us with new unknowns about his immediate future.

We knew that in Mandalore coexistence was difficult. These honorable warriors with their bellicose attitudes are made up of a multitude of clans one push away from starting a civil war and, Despite the peaceful rule of Satine Kryze, the most unruly factions and the insidious influence of the Empire caused everything to explode..

Divided, deceived and decimated, they were transformed into a homeless people after the Great Purge of Mandalore, an unprecedented act of war with which Moff Gideon devastated the planet In addition to definitively destroying his enemies, he melted down all the beskar he found to prepare their armor.

But the events experienced in the last chapters of season 3 of ‘The Mandalorian’ have changed all thisshowing us Bo-Katan Kryze and the Mandalorian armorer at the head of a movement that has managed to unite different clans in exile that, together with refugees who survived the purge, have reclaimed the planet and ignited the forge again.

Mandalore, at least for a period of time between ‘Return of the Jedi’ (Richard Marquand, 1983) and ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ (JJ Abrams, 2015), once again belonged to the Mandalorians.

The future of ‘The Mandalorian’ and season 4

In a marvelous narrative gesture, this season has closed all its plot arcs preparing a new series while doing it. Mando and Grogu have gotten a new job as secret agents at the service of the New Republic, a kind of bounty hunter on the loose from the government who will act where the official establishment cannot.

As if all that wasn’t enough, they now have a little house in Nevarro to, as has been explicitly stated, “rest between adventures”. That is to say, season 4 of ‘The Mandalorian’ is free, you can do what you want with the Din, father and son of righters of wrongs.

According to Favreau himself, season four already has a file full of scripts sitting on his computer waiting to be shot, but given Lucasfilm’s overloaded schedule for Disney+, we may have to wait a bit.

Definitively turning ‘The Mandalorian’ into an episodic series, with monster of the week as Mando and Grogu fix galactic problems in the Outer Rimit is as good news as that all this is reserved for a couple of years from now, when ‘Ahsoka’, ‘Skeleton Crew’, ‘The Acolyte’ and the second season of ‘Andor’ have already shown what they are capable of.

For his part, the Mandalorians must now take over Mandalore and, for some reason, prevent the resurgence of the New Order. Where we will learn more details of that galactic canon is still an enigmabut different scripts with the name of the planet on the cover are sure to be going in and out of powerful offices right now.
