The Mandalorian Season 3 Trailer Sets Up Anakin Skywalker’s Return

A brand-new trailer for The Mandalorian season 3 has been released, teasing an exciting return for Anakin Skywalker with a new Star Wars cameo.


A new trailer for The Mandalorian season 3 has been released, teasing the return of Hayden Christensen’s Anakin Skywalker with an all-new Star Wars cameo. Featuring the recently reunited Din Djarin and Grogu, the trailer shows that the young child has decided to become a Mandalorian like his adoptive father. However, it looks as though Grogu will continue to experience flashbacks to his traumatic past with the Jedi Order.


As seen in the new trailer for The Mandalorian season 3, Grogu is adventuring with Din Djarin in his modified N-1 Naboo starfighter, first seen in The Book of Boba Fett where Grogu abandoned his Jedi training with Luke Skywalker as well. While Djarin will be seeking forgiveness for his past sins with a pilgrimage to Mandalore, it looks as though Grogu will still be grappling with his dark past. This includes the fateful night of the Jedi Purge known as Order 66, which opens up the opportunity for Anakin Skywalker to appear.

Order 66 Flashback in Mandalorian Season 3

In the new trailer, Grogu experiences a brand-new flashback to Order 66, the night he somehow survived when Anakin Skywalker and his clone troops stormed the Jedi Temple and slaughtered the countless members within its walls. While Grogu somehow escaped, this particular flashback in The Mandalorian season 3 features a team of Jedi protecting the young child while someone else attempts to cut their way through a sealed door from the other side. While this could be a simple squad of clone troopers serving the new Empire, it looks an awful lot like when lightsabers have been used to cut through doors.

Anakin Skywalker himself may very well be on the other side of that door, potentially teasing a brand-new cameo appearance for the recently corrupted Jedi Knight. As such, viewers may soon witness a face-to-face encounter between the newly christened Darth Vader and Grogu, a major moment in the Star Wars canon that would certainly carry some strong significance going forward. It would certainly tie the child even closer to the Skywalker legacy even more than he already is.
