Star Wars is a science fiction franchise set in a universe far far away.
Moff Gideon Actor Giancarlo Esposito's Daughters Pleaded For Him Not To Hurt Grogu, His Response Was Priceless
By now, you have probably seen the season 2 finale for The Mandalorian. Many were worried about Grogu, given that he was kidnapped by Moff Gideon a couple of episodes prior. We saw the lengths that Din Djarin would go through in order to retrieve Grogu, even going so far as to take off his helmet. Thankfully, Din got a team together and was successful in retrieving Grogu before he needed to be given away. Many people cried over the departure of Grogu for the show, and there is speculation that people might not follow the show as closely now that Grogu is out for the time being. Only time will tell whether this comes true. However, Moff Gideon, though apparently in custody, seems like he could still be in the picture in some way. He has been an interesting villain so far, and we learned that he just wanted Grogu's blood for...something. It is still a bit of a mystery, which may lead one to believe that this thread is not yet finished. Could he go after Grogu again?

The Real Face Behind Luke Skywalker, And No It’s Not Sebastian Stan
Well… how about that season finale, am I right? Season two of The Mandalorian continues its streak of bringing back fan-favorite Star Wars characters with a surprise appearance by Luke Skywalker, swooping in just in time to save Din Djarin and the gang. In the end, Luke takes Grogu with him to continue his Jedi training, but not before a heartfelt goodbye between Din and Grogu. (I’m not crying, you are!)

The Mandalorian and A Rekindled Flame For Star Wars.
I was probably 8 years old the first time I watched Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. 10 or 11 the first time I experienced the trilogy as a whole. This was when I was truly hooked, enthralled. The wild array of alien races in the Mos Eisley Cantina, droids, the mystery of the Jedi and their force powers, Han and Chewy. It goes on and on. The number of times I viewed these films in my youth is undoubtedly in the triple digits.

Disney+ To Launch 'Book Of Boba Fett' Series December 2021
One of the most famous and beloved characters in all of Star Wars is the menacing bounty hunter Boba Fett, first shown in the Star Wars Holiday Special and then in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. We got to see him as a kid in one of the prequel films, Attack of the Clones, which was all kinds of fun, and there were even spinoff books and other stories just like literally every single character that ever appeared in the original Star Wars films. Despite the fact that Boba only had a few lines in the original films (one of which was "Aaaugh!" as he was clumsily knocked into the sarlacc pit), the look alone gained him a sizable following.

The Mandalorian Season 2.
It came and went quicker than a podracer crossing the finish line, but the second season of The Mandalorian has come and gone. Finishing last Friday with the aptly titled "The Rescue." I'm not going to bog this article down by giving you and arbitrary rundown of the episode's plot. Mostly because I think that's a cheap way of getting more words onto the page. But also, it is because the realised that most the people who are most likely to read this lovingly prepared article will fall into one of two main groups.

Rey And Kylo Ren Duel In Concept Art From 'The Rise Of Skywalker'
It has now been a year since the release of Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker. It feels like a lifetime ago, given the weirdness of this past year. There has been, unsurprisingly, a lot of discourse surrounding the film and what it could have done better. From early ideas that did not make it to the screen, to words from the actors themselves about the process and their reactions, The Rise of Skywalker has been left with a reputation among many as a film that did not satisfy everyone as a conclusion to the Skywalker saga.

We Might Know The Plot Of Taika Waititi's 'Star Wars' Film
Disney Investor Day was on December 10, but it still feels like yesterday, given the huge impact that the announcement of future Star Wars projects had on the fans. We got announcements and updates pertaining to ten Disney+ shows for the franchise, and we even got an update on the feature film side of things. On Disney+, we are getting an animated feature film titled A Droid Story, featuring the classic duo of Artoo and Threepio as they guide a new character. On the theatrical side of things, we got confirmation that the next theatrical film will be Rogue Squadron, which is currently targeting (See what I did there?) a December 2023 release. This Patty Jenkins-directed film took people by surprise, given that we had not heard prior that she was in talks or attached to anything. One name that we had heard, however, was Taika Waititi.

New Vehicles Revealed From ‘Star Wars: The High Republic’
These past several months, Lucasfilm have been revealing some new characters and details about the forthcoming new publishing initiative Star Wars: The High Republic. This forthcoming new publishing initiative sets the series of adventures 200 years before the event of Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace. With this new era set that far back in the timeline, Lucasfilm's concept artists have gotten creative with vehicles and other ships of the High Republic era, reimagining the Star Wars saga with a more elegant look, thus refining the overall look of the Republic a bit. The best part of this new publishing initiative is that the concept artists are able to bring and use some ideas that were originally created for the Star Wars saga but did not make it to the big screen, such as a new vehicle for the villainous marauders who are known as the Nihil.
