THE MANDALORIAN Season 3 Rumored To Feature Naboo N-1 Starfighters - Will We Return To Ja Jar's Home Planet?

Could we see Din Djarin & Grogu travel to the Gungan home planet of Naboo during season 3 of The Mandalorian? A new rumor doing the rounds claims that an N-1 Starfighter has been constructed for the show.

Naboo was introduced in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, but the space-saga has never seemed to be in too big a rush to return to the Gungan home planet, and outside of the prequels, the location hasn't really featured in a live-action setting since.

Could that be about to change on the small screen?

According to Making Star Wars, two prequel-era starships will feature in upcoming episodes of The Mandalorian: Boba Fett's Slave 1, and a Naboo N-1 Starfighter.

Fett's iconic ship will reportedly appear in one of the remaining season 2 episodes (which makes sense considering the bounty hunter is almost certain to return to confront Din Djarin before/during the finale), while the N-1 Starfighter is said to have been constructed for the upcoming third season.

Though this is far from confirmation that we will revisit Naboo on the show, it is a pretty good indication that the planet - and possibly its extremely irritating inhabitants - will factor into the plot in some capacity. Could Jar Jar Binks himself show up? It would be a perfect opportunity for Ahmed Best to reprise the role and give some closure to the character, but that might be a stretch.

What do you guys think? Would you like to see Mando and Grogu pay a little visit to Naboo during season 3 of The Mandalorian?

“Naboo was introduced in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, but the space-saga has never seemed to be in too big a rush to return to the Gungan home planet, and the location hasn't featured in a live-action setting since.”

It featured in ATTACK OF THE CLONES as well. Chronologically, it’s last live action appearance is in the celebration scene of RETURN OF THE JEDI.

One of my favorite starship designs in the whole franchise. I will lose my shit if we get a proper space battle in the Mandalorian.

''Fett's iconic ship will reportedly appear in one of the remaining season 2 episodes''

My guess it's gonna be this week already, because I think Mando is gonna trade the armor for Cobb's help getting to Tython. Only for Boba (and Fennec?) to show up too.

The N-1 would be really dope to see, but I don't think we'll see Naboo though. Probably a small rebel group using them (like the wookies having a LAAT in Fallen Order).

@bkmeijer - I like the idea that he saved her and she’s now his henchwoman.

@globaltravels - yeah I was thinking that I can see Fennec be the main villain and only a small Boba tease again. Wasn't sure she survived or not last season though.

Kamino is the planet I want to see again. It would be a season finale on Kamino, with Moff Gideon, Djarin and the force-sensitive "Super-Troopers."

@Repian - I think this season will have a pretty crazy ending ala ESB, maybe Mando fails/looses something important.

@Repian - I think we'll see Tython be the place for the (two-part) finale. Gideon is probably gonna blow up the temple in at the end of Chapter 15, and Mando and Bo-Katan & Friends (who will turn up in the finale) will take on Gideon in Chapter 16

I think we will find out that Jar Jar Binks was involved in saving Grogu from Order 66. Perhaps a Jedi passed Grogu off to him. But who? Difficult to answer.

@WackyBantha - I have read a rumor. Grogu appears in the animated series "The Bad Batch." Maybe they save the child on a special mission.

So in the last 3 episodes we will have Boba Fett, Moff Gideon, Dark Troopers, Tython... [frick] there’s just not enough time left for anything satisfying

Would be cool if they kill off Jar Jar Binks.
