Warning: This article contains spoilers for Season 2 of The Mandalorian..


The second season of The Mandalorian ended with a most emotional scene, with Pedro Pascal’s Din Djarin handing Grogu over to Luke Skywalker for his Jedi training. Therefore, some fans were surprised when the iconic duo reunited as early as another Disney+ series based on the Star Wars universe, The Book of Boba Fett.

The Mandalorian co-creator Jon Favreau explained to Empire why Mando and Baby Yoda are back together.

“We couldn’t just do a restart,” Favreau said. “It’s going to be interesting to see how this plays out for people who haven’t seen The Book of Boba Fett. But I think The Book of Boba Fett offered time to move on. You saw what Mando was like without Baby Yoda and what Grogu was like without Mando, and neither of them were doing too well.“.

Favreau added that their reunion “was a really good plot point that allows us to jump right back into season three while keeping the relationship central.”

The co-creator also spoke about Grogu’s emotional journey saying, “to this little guy [Grogu] you are given a choice. And the boy chooses the emotional relationship and wants to be with Mando and let Yoda’s lightsaber pass.. One part of you wants to see it develop that way, and the other part wants the other thing.”

The third season of The Mandalorian Coming to Disney+ on March 1, 2023. While you wait, you can check out our big questions about the latest trailer, the latest image shared from the season, and how star Pedro Pascal “don’t see sh*t” in Mandalorian armor.
