"You are a Mandalorian no more."
Those ominous words come from The Armorer in this first trailer for The Mandalorian season 3, and it's clear this next batch of episodes will move the story along in a big way now Din Djarin is no longer looking to return Grogu to the Jedi. The events of The Book of Boba Fett saw the bounty hunter stripped of his "Mandalorian" status, so his goal now is to presumably regain it.
Who knows if he even wants it, though it definitely appears as if we're set to follow him back to Mandalore.
As expected, Bo-Katan Kryze's mission to restore her home is clearly about to be put front and centre; whether Din will find an ally or enemy in her remains to be seen. It looks as if she may be trying to make him see things another way (rather than the way), likely because the Mandalorians who took him in as a child are perceived as extremists by others who once called Mandalore home.
Elsewhere in this sneak peek, Carl Weathers returns as Greef Karga, we get a first look at The Rise of Skywalker's Babu Frik, and even see a planet that might be Naboo.
Crucially, there's quite a bit of Grogu cuteness to be found here, and with these two together again, we're sure that the antics of "Baby Yoda" will remain one of the most enjoyable, and slightly less serious, aspects of the show.
No premiere date was announced at D23 for The Mandalorian's return (no great surprise when Lucasfilm didn't bring all that much to the event), but we know it's definitely returning to our screens sometime next year.
