What are his powers?
Vox writer Allegra Frank said Grogu made The Mandalorian "instantly more memorable and evocative", and alleviated the solitude and tension that might otherwise have surrounded the show's protagonist. [12] Carolyn Giardina of The Hollywood Reporter said Grogu helped The Mandalorian not only achieve critical and commercial success, but also impact the cultural zeitgeist. [10] Beyond the show, other writers have described the character as a key component in the success of Disney's rollout of the Disney+ streaming service. [4] [140] [141] Julia Alexander of The Verge wrote: "There's no question that Baby Yoda is driving interest in Disney+". [140] Some critics called Grogu one of the best and most lauded new Star Wars characters in recent memory, [114] [137] while others said the character had made the Star Wars franchise relevant to an even wider range of audiences. [4] [74] In " Chapter 24: The Return", Grogu saves the Mandalorian after he is captured and helps him fight his way through Moff Gideon's base on Mandalore. Grogu faces off against three Praetorian Guards, which destroy his IG-12 suit; he uses the Force to defeat the guards and Moff Gideon, and later to shield himself, the Mandalorian, and Bo-Katan from a fiery explosion. Once Mandalore is reclaimed, the Mandalorian adopts Grogu as his son and apprentice, and he is given the name Din Grogu by the Armorer. The pair leave Mandalore so that Din Grogu can complete his apprenticeship. [61] Characterization [ edit ] Ankers, Adele (January 17, 2020).

I don’t think it’s overly cynical to suggest that The Mandalorian’s creative team intentionally fashioned several of Baby Yoda’s scenes with the express purpose of having them go viral. Initial reports that Disney was actively scrubbing the web of Baby Yoda gifs proved unfounded, and it’s now practically impossible to scroll through any social media platform without being inundated with pics, videos, memes and gifs of the bug-eyed, big-eared tot. Obviously, anything as eye-catchingly adorable as that puppet was always destined to take social media by storm, but still – it’s impossible to look at the shot from Episode 4 of him sipping broth from an oversized mug and not immediately think of the Kermit Sipping Tea meme. (For what it’s worth, that episode’s director, Bryce Dallas Howard, has claimed the response took her by surprise, but you’ll forgive me if I don’t buy that.) a b c d e f g h i j k l m n Keegan, Rebecca (December 19, 2019).

Is he really a baby?

As soon as his big bat-ears and tiny little head popped out of his floating crib, fans immediately began speculating about his identity and import. The Mandalorian has thus far doled out precious few clues as to the true nature of The Child, as he is referred to within the show. He’s first introduced during the closing moments of the pilot, revealed to be the bounty that our eponymous bounty hunter hero, the equally mysterious Mandalorian (or Mando, as he’s known to friends), was hired to collect, dead or alive. Aside from its gender, we know only that The Child is 50 years old (his species has an exceptionally long lifespan, as first noted in Return of the Jedi when Yoda reveals he’s been alive for 900 years), and that, like the other members of his species we’ve been introduced to in past films, he is Force sensitive. Gartenberg, Chaim (January 17, 2020). "Disney is hunting down the most popular Baby Yoda toys on Etsy". The Verge. Archived from the original on February 15, 2020 . Retrieved February 27, 2020. We don’t exactly know. Not only is their home planet unknown, but so is the species’ real name (if it even has one), which is why it’s simply refered to as “Yoda’s species.” Grogu was kept secret and was deliberately withheld from The Mandalorian 's prerelease marketing and merchandise plans due to the risk that details about the character could leak before the show aired. [10] [5] [109] [110] Favreau said of this plan: "I think that part of what people really value is to be surprised and delighted, and I think that's becoming all too rare." [10] Favreau has credited Donald Glover as the source of that strategy. While developing The Mandalorian, Favreau was simultaneously directing Glover in the photorealistic remake of The Lion King (2019). While discussing music and pop culture, Glover told Favreau that people enjoy being surprised, because true surprises had become much less common in the Internet era. As an example, Glover cited the excitement generated by the sudden releases of surprise albums by singer and songwriter Beyoncé. [5] [111] Favreau felt keeping Grogu a secret until he was revealed would allow fans to connect with the character and "discover the story as it was unfolding". The leadership and marketing team at the Walt Disney Company was supportive of this strategy. [10] Screeners of the pilot episode were not distributed to reviewers to avoid leaks about Grogu, [112] and the official Lucasfilm and Star Wars social media accounts did not start posting messages about Grogu until about a week after the series debuted, to avoid spoiling the character's debut as much as possible. [112] [113] [114] Themes [ edit ] Parenting and fatherhood [ edit ] There is one other member of this species in Star Wars canon: Yaddle, a Jedi Master who sat on the Jedi Council in the Prequel era. She was known for both exuding patience and kindness, and having exceptionally deadly Force powers that could trap a person in stasis.
