Star Wars Continues To Establish Its Thanos-Level Big Bad, Connecting The Mandalorian To Dave Filoni’s Movie

Din Djarin and co. on The Mandalorian

The following is going to dig into spoilers for the current season of The Mandalorian, specifically Episode 23, which dropped on April 12. Stop reading now if you haven’t yet caught up!

The most recent episode of The Mandalorian, available to everyone with a Disney+ subscription, focused heavily on Bo-Katan’s efforts to restore Mandalore and unite the various Mandalorian tribes. It featured the emergence of Moff Gideon (Giancarlo Esposito), a Star Wars villain whose return has been teased all season, but also dropped a significant hint at another threat looming in the Star Wars galaxy, one who I think is going to emerge as the Thanos-level threat in future episodes of The Mandalorian, the August release of Ahsoka starring Rosario Dawson, and probably the Star Wars movie soon to be directed by Dave Filoni, as confirmed at Star Wars Celebration 2023.
