One of The Mandalorian’s biggest mysteries could be getting an answer. No, not Baby Yoda’s name or why Pedro Pascal hid his face behind a mask for most of the first season – but thꦆe origins of Darksaber.

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Mandalorian꧋ season 1 ending saw Giancarlo Esposito’s Moff Gideon wield the unique lightsaber, a weapon that has a storied history all the way back to Star Wars spin-off The Clone Wars.

But how did it end up in Gideon’s hands? 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Mandalorian season 2 might just clue us in on its currenꦫt owners🐎hip, as Esposito explains to .

“You&r🍨squo;ll see more of the Darksaber,” Esposito teased. “You’ll get the explanation of this ancient weapon to the modern world, a collapsed world. Wh🐎ere did this saber come from and how was it revived? It’s a key in our second season, which will be back sooner than later.”

The Darksaber, created by the very first Mando, has passed from the likes of Darth Maul through to Sabine Wren and Bo-Katan. We’ve seen it in action in animation – and we’re about to see it in live action has Esposito previously said we can expect 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:“epic lightsaber action&rd✤quo; in October.

The next 12 months are busy ones for Esposito, even discounting his glowering with the Darksaber in a galaxy far, far away. He’s all set for a bulkier role in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Boys season 2 as Vought CEO Stan Edgar and is even going to play the main villai🐈n in 2021’s✤ Far Cry 6. Sometimes it pays to be bad.
