Summary
ThisStar Warscosplayer perfectly captured Din Djarin’s look inThe Mandalorianat FAN EXPO Chicago. Din Djarin is undoubtedly one ofStar Wars’best characters, andThe Mandalorianis largely considered one ofStar Wars’best TV shows. In fact,The Mandaloriantruly stands out amongStar Warsmovies and TV shows, as it will be the franchise’s very first show to jump to the big screen withThe Mandalorian & Grogu. Perhaps because of this upcoming movie, FAN EXPO Chicago saw manyMandaloriancosplayers, this brilliant Din Djarin among them.
The cosplayer,Midwest_Mandoon TikTok, donned Din Djarin’s iconic Mandalorian armor, including his essential helmet, at FAN EXPO Chicago this year. Truly, this cosplay is a dead ringer forStar Wars’Din Djarin; all he’s missing is Grogu by his side.
This cosplay is also the perfect reminder of how excitingThe Mandalorian & Groguwill be and how much potential that story has in the franchise.
Everything We Know About The Mandalorian & Grogu Movie
The Mandalorian’s story will continue with a Star Wars movie. Here’s everything we know about the project, including cast, release, and timeline.
Excitement Is Building For The Mandalorian & Grogu
OfStar Wars’upcoming movies,The Mandalorian & Groguis perhaps the most highly anticipated of all. While Rey’s upcomingStar Warsmovie, rumored to be titledStar Wars: New Jedi Order, is sure to be a thrilling addition toStar Wars,it feels as though many ofStar Wars’recent projects have all been building towardThe Mandalorian & Grogu. Of course, that has included all three seasons ofThe Mandalorian, particularlyThe Mandalorianseason 3 ending, which perfectly set the stage for this next stage of Din Djarin and Grogu’s story.
Specifically,The Mandalorianseason 3 finale saw Din Djarin formally adopt Grogu and take him on as his Mandalorian apprentice, confirming that Grogu truly did pick his family bond with Din Djarin over the path of a Jedi. Additionally, the finale confirmed that Din Djarin is returning to his bounty hunter days, but this time with a very important distinction—now, he will actively be accepting jobs with the New Republic. Bo-Katan Kryze’sMandalorianstory had a massive update too, with her quite literally taking the Mandalorian throne.
However,Ahsokaseason 1 also indicated what is likely to come in this next chapter of Din Djarin’s story. In fact,Ahsokaseason 1 very likely introduced the main villain ofThe Mandalorian & Grogu. IntheAhsokafinale, Ahsoka Tano and Sabine Wren effectively switched places with Ezra Bridger and Grand Admiral Thrawn; Ahsoka and Sabine are now trapped on Peridea, and, unfortunately, Thrawn is headed back to the main galaxy. Undoubtedly, Thrawn and the other Imperial remnants will be the ‘big bad’ of this next era ofStar Wars,The Mandalorian & Groguincluded.
This opens up some incredible story opportunities forThe Mandalorian & Groguand beyond. It seemsStar Warsis truly trending in a new direction, focusing on stories separate from the Skywalker Saga, the Jedi, and the Sith and moving into an era that explores brand-new stories. Just as this brilliantStar Warscosplay makes clear, there is plenty to be excited about, both for the characters ofThe Mandalorianand in the franchise more broadly.
