The season 3 premiere of The Mandalorian saw Din Djarin make it clear to The Armorer that he intended to regain his status as a Mandalorian by returning to Mandalore, and we're sure that isn't the last we've seen of the clan leader. Played by Emily Swallow, the character has become a hit with fans and is someone we're all keen to learn more about.
This next batch of episodes might offer some answers, but a newly released character poster puts the spotlight squarely on the enigmatic warrior.
She's joined by a second one-sheet focusing on the Anzellan Droidsmiths we met in "The Apostate." Until now, the prevailing theory has been that the Anzellan who Grogu attempted to make off with might be a younger Babu Frik from The Rise of Skywalker.
That would have been a fantastic example of connectivity, but the fact Lucasfilm's official social accounts are referring to them simply as "Anzellan Droidsmiths" pretty much debunks the notion. After all, if this was the massively popular Babu Frik, why not highlight that here?
It's a shame as the physical similarities are striking, but the Star Wars timeline is complicated enough as it is and The Mandalorian's creative team - spearheaded by Jon Favreau - may be looking to avoid tying too much into both the original and sequel trilogies.
"Still the best Star Wars TV show," we said in our review of the first two episodes, "The Mandalorian returns with everything fans love about the franchise and plenty of hints that this will be the most thrilling and revealing season yet. We’re ready for that Bo-Katan Kryze spin-off."
