Predictions - The Mandalorian Season 3  

Though The Book of Boba Fett was meant to focus on the titular character, it ended up being a continuation of The Mandalorian universe and did plenty to continue Din Djarin and Grogu's story and ended up doing a lot to set up the third season of The Mandalorian. With that here are my predictions for that show and maybe what we can expect. 

Din Djarin and Grogu are heading to Mandalore

The end of The Book of Boba Fett sees Mando and Grogu leaving Tatooine but we don't know where they are heading. Earlier on in the season, The Armourer told him that he was no longer a part of the creed and that he would have to go to Mandalore to attempt to rejoin. The pair may not head there straight away but I think at some point the pair are going to find themselves at The Mandalorian homeworld. 

Luke Skywalker will train Mando to use the Darksaber.

As great as it was, the training between Grogu and Luke Skywalker felt all too fleeting and short. Potentially this could be fixed by having Luke teach Din Djarin how to use the Darksaber. There is previous of a Jedi teaching a Mandalorian how to use the weapon and this would be different and fun to watch. 

Or Sabine Wren could train him. 

In Star Wars Rebels, Mandalorian Sabine Wren is trained by Jedi Kanan Jarrus to use the Darksaber and she does this effectively. With Natasha Liu Bordizzo cast as the live action version of the character it would make some sense for her to teach Din Djarin instead. Sabine has connection to both Ahsoka Tano and Bo-Katan that she could be a link in the shows and with being a Mandalorian she provides a different perspective to Luke. 

The Armourer's true intentions will be shown

The Armourer returns in The Book of Boba Fett and we see how knowledgeable she is with both The Jedi and The Mandalorian code. We see her clash with Din Djarin and exile him from the creed and I think we will see her have a more impactful showing in the next season of The Mandalorian. I never noticed until recently that she still has the horns that Maul's troops did in Clone Wars so she is not a character who should be trusted and will be more of an enemy. 

The Empire will have a smaller role

Over the first two seasons of The Mandalorian we have seen plenty of The Empire including Moff Gideon. Though Giancarlo Esposito did say he would be back in the third season I do think his role will be smaller and a new antagonist will take charge. 

Crimson Dawn will be one of the major villains

It was rumoured for ages that Crimson Dawn would be revealed to be the villains of The Book of Boba Fett but that wasn't the case and that is because I think they will be used here. The Pykes were allied to Crimson Dawn previously and after their defeat on Tatooine they will report to their bosses. Qi'ra in the comics is currently in charge of the group and she could want the Darksaber as technically Maul never lost it which means she might think it should be hers, hell this might be where we see that young Han Solo cameo that was also rumoured. 

We will find out who saved Grogu

One of the mysteries from this universe is who saved Grogu from order 66, we saw flashbacks to this event in The Book of Boba Fett and we are getting closer to finding out who it was. I have seen so many ideas and theories but I genuinely have no idea who it could be and how exactly it links to the current story that we are seeing. 

Boba Fett will help Din Djarin lead Mandalore. 

Din Djarin came to the aid of Boba Fett and stopped Cad Bane and The Pyke Syndicate. I think the favour will be replicated here with Boba helping him in his quest to unite The Mandalorian people. Boba somewhat is a Mandalorian and he has a strong bond with Mando so it would be fun to watch them team up together, plus if Crimson Dawn are involved it would make sense that they would want revenge against Fett as well. 

Din Djarin will be revealed to be force sensitive

This is my wild theory. It is known that the original owner of the darksaber was both a mandalorian and a Jedi so maybe when Mando learns to properly use it, it will be down to some force abilities. It has not really been hinted so far and I am not sure that I want it but this is a road that they could go down. 

Overall, I am buzzing for The Mandalorian Season 3 and hopefully it lives up to the total hype.
