Our Take On Grogu’s Future

Could He Become The Galaxy’s Most Important Mandalorian?

Given Filoni’s emphasis on Grogu’s evolution, it seems as ifThe Mandalorian and Groguis going to mark an important step inGrogu’sStar Warsfuture, especially as he trains under his father’s tutelage.Grogu’s Force powersalready give him a leg up, as Din Djarin is encouraging Grogu to blend his Force abilities with his Mandalorian training to make him an even more effective warrior. As Grogu gets older and learns from his father’s teachings,he will most likely become one of the galaxy’s strongest and most capable warriors.

Grogu’s 10 Greatest Force Feats (So Far)

Grogu may be tiny, but he’s also mighty, especially with the Force. Here are his greatest Force feats thus far in The Mandalorian franchise.

This is made extremely important by a Mandalorian prophecy first shared inThe Book of Boba Fett. The Armorer spoke of aMythosaurrising to herald a new age of Mandalore, and this creature was spotted underneath theLiving Waterson Mandalore inThe Mandalorianseason 3. Given Grogu’s ability to connect to creatures of any size through the Force, as demonstrated on the rancor inThe Book of Boba Fett,it could be that Grogu becomes the next Mandalorian to tame a Mythosaur and prove his worth. Either way, exciting things clearly await Grogu inThe Mandalorian and Grogumovie.
