WHO ARE THE MANDALORIANS?

The Mandalorians are multiracial people known for their special armor and helmets. According to their strict moral code, a Mandalorian must never remove their helmet. Their primary motto is “This is the way,” referring to their strictly defined values. This warrior people’s history goes back thousands of years before the founding of the Republic.

WHO IS THE MYSTERIOUS CHILD?

The character known as “The Kid” or “Grogu” is one of the most recognizable characters in “The Mandalorian.” This little companion of the protagonist Din Djarin possesses the powerful Force that the Jedi have and is said to be 50 years old. Grogu belongs to the same race as the legendary master Yoda and enjoys frogs as his favorite delicacy.

The character’s name is unknown from the beginning. The public finds it only in chapter 13 when he reveals it to Ahsoka. Grogu is now part of pop culture.

The series has enjoyed the such incredible success that producers have announced another spin-off about Ahsoka’s adventures, set to debut this year on the Disney+ streaming platform.

The two spin-off Disney series are separated from the action of “The Mandalorian,” less than four years after the first season release, confirming the incredible success enjoyed by this production.
