Luke Skywalker: Last News

Carrie Fisher received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Tuesday, a May the Fourth tribute to a beloved “Star Wars” actor that had a touch of stardust.

If you grew up in the 1980s, there's a chance you may still have some classic toys boxed away that could be worth thousands.

The following contains spoilers from the season 3 finale of Disney+/Lucasfilm’s The Mandalorian, episode Chapter 24, “The Return” written by Jon Favreau and directed by Rick Famuyiwa.

The Mandalorian has served as a launchpad to explore other corners of the Star Wars universe post-Return Of The Jedi.While the series has featured classic characters like Boba Fett and Luke Skywalker, the return of Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson) in season two was arguably the most interesting callback considering she’s been largely overlooked in the mainline film series.With a spin-off series in her name arriving in August, Ahsoka looks set to become a key pillar of the franchise. Need a refresher? Here’s what you need to know.Ahsoka Tano is a former Jedi knight who was initially introduced as a padawan to Anakin Skywalker in the 2008 animated film Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director One of the biggest announcements to emerge out of Star Wars Celebration was the return of Daisy Ridley as Rey in a new movie that will follow the events of “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker,” which concluded the most recent Skywalker trilogy in 2019. Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy (“Ms. Marvel”) is directing the still-untitled Rey movie from a script by Steven Knight (“Peaky Blinders”). Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy said at the fan convention that Ridley’s new “Star Wars” movie will follow Rey as she builds a new Jedi Order, but the executive teased a bit more about the plot in an interview with IGN: “Star Wars” fans will pick up with Rey well over a decade after “The Rise of Skywalker.”

Sophia Scorziello editor The Dolby Theater became home to the Star Wars fandom on Friday night, with viewers gathering for a screening of episodes of “The Mandalorian” along with a panel at the 2023 PaleyFest Los Angeles. Pedro Pascal and Katee Sackhoff, stars of the Disney+ live-action series, and executive producers Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni and Rick Famuyiwa joined Entertainment Tonight’s Ash Crossan to talk everything Mando. Filoni took the stage wearing his iconic black cowboy hat, while Pascal giggled at heckling fans who shouted “papi chulo!” and other comments pertaining to his good looks. Since its premiere in 2019, “The Mandalorian” has shocked “Star Wars” fans, starting, of course, with the reveal of the oh-so endearing Grogu (aka Baby Yoda) in Season 1, followed by the appearance of Luke Skywalker in Season 2. The show is set after the fall of the Empire and follows Mandalorian bounty hunter Din Djarin (Pascal) as he protects Grogu and tries to reunite Mandalorians alongside Bo-Katan Kryze (Sackhoff).

Joe Leydon Film Critic There are times when you look back at pop culture phenomena and can’t resist the urge to ask: Can you believe this actually happened? Tackling a notorious fiasco in one of the galaxy’s most popular franchises, Jeremy Coon and Steve Kozak’s amusing and exhaustive documentary ”A Disturbance in the Force” unpacks 1978’s “Star Wars Holiday Special.” You don’t have to be an obsessive “Star Wars” fan to enjoy this behind-the-scenes look at how the special — which premiered Nov. 17, 1978 on CBS, and has never been re-run on any broadcast or cable outlet — came to exist. To be sure, the fans will appreciate it a lot more than casual viewers. But it’s also an irresistible hoot for anyone with fond memories of star-studded 1970s musical/variety TV specials — a specific type of highly popular general audience entertainment that, truth to tell, very often showcased more campy excess than anything in the “Star Wars Holiday Special.”  

The Mandalorian has teased more “surprises” in the third season.The Star Wars spin-off debuted the first episode of season three on Wednesday (March 1), which picks up after Grogu and Din Djarin, aka The Mandalorian (Pedro Pascal), reunited in fellow spin-off The Book Of Boba Fett.It also comes after the show’s season two finale, where Mark Hamill made a surprise appearance as Luke Skywalker in digitally de-aged form.Speaking to the Radio Times, Rick Famuyiwa, who directed the season three premiere, was asked whether anything in the third season will match Luke’s return.“There’s always something to look forward to, there’s always surprises,” Famuyiwa replied.“I think the show, at its heart, is still just about this relationship between Mando and Grogu, and that’s still the focus and still going to be the centre of it, but in that journey and in that exploration and in what Mando does, we’re obviously going to expand.”He added: “As you start to see things and his world starts to expand, we’ve had some interesting surprises and guests that have come along the way up to this point and so there’s always going to be new places to go and surprises ahead.”Along with Pascal, Giancarlo Esposito, Carl Weathers, Katee Sackhoff, Emily Swallow, and Amy Sedaris reprise their roles in the third season.

The Mandalorian has finally returned to screens, taking fans on more adventures through the Star Wars universe. The hit Disney+ series – created by filmmaker John Favreau – follows lone bounty hunter Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) as he becomes the adoptive father figure of a little green critter called Grogu – AKA Baby Yoda.

The Mandalorian are sceptical about a timeline retcon revealed by series creator Jon Favreau.Earlier this week Favreau confirmed that the events in seasons one and two of the Star Wars live action spinoff series take place over “many years”. He said that Grogu (“Baby Yoda”) trained with Luke Skywalker for “two years” until being reunited with Din Djarin in fellow Disney+ Star Wars spinoff The Book Of Boba Fett.Favreau’s comments made on the Skytalkers podcast have surprised fans online, with many having reservations about the retroactive continuity.One fan wrote in the podcast’s YouTube comments section: “So after two years of training with Luke, Baby Yoda still can’t jump? And don’t give me that ‘he’s practically a toddler’ crap, his command of the force and cognitive alertness far exceed anything a young sentient life form could pull off.

The Mandalorian has finally returned to Disney+, but fans of the show have revealed one thing viewers need to know before diving in to its third season. The acclaimed Star Wars spin-off follows the adventures of bounty hunter Din Djarin – otherwise known as Mando – and his little green, Yoda-like friend, Grogu.

prepares to kick off its third season, creator Jon Favreau has a bold and sweeping vision for the show's potential future and is promising some real excitement for the forthcoming new episodes.Favreau walked the red carpet at season 3 premiere on Tuesday, at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood, and he spoke with ET's Ash Crossan about what fans can expect from the show's iconic characters in the new season.«Things certainly will culminate this season, because there's a lot of characters that we've set up and there are all lot of them that are coming together again,» Favreau teased, cautiously. «There are bigger things happening in the galaxy as well. We have the resurgent Empire and we have the Mandalorians, who are scattered, and there's lots of different factions that are all over the galaxy.»One thing fans saw in was Grogu (or «Baby Yoda» as fans have come to fondly call the character) leaving the tutelage of Luke Skywalker and choosing to return to Din Djarin — a.k.a.

Pedro Pascal might be a self-confessed “blabbermouth,” but even he knows to keep any “The Mandalorian”-related secrets to himself.

Adam B. Vary Senior Entertainment Writer In the Season 2 finale of “The Mandalorian” — which first streamed on Disney+ on Dec. 18, 2020, over two years ago — Mando (Pedro Pascal) bid a moving farewell to Grogu, handing over his adorably wee ward to Grogu’s new Jedi master, Luke Skywalker (played by a digitally de-aged Mark Hamill). The wrenching final scene culminated in Mando removing his helmet — violating the core precept of Mandalorian doctrine — so Grogu could see his face for the first time. It felt like the definitive end of a two-season journey, one painstakingly crafted by executive producers Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni to reset the show and send it into a new storytelling galaxy. As the trailers for Season 3 of “The Mandalorian” have already made clear, however, the new season will begin on March 1 with Mando and Grogu back together. It’s almost as if the events of the Season 2 finale hadn’t happened.

The Mandalorian Season 3 trailer shows Din Djarin and Grogu back in action, but many fans are wondering why Din and Grogu reunited. The finale episode of Season 2 of the Mandalorian had Luke Skywalker taking Grogu to be trained as a Jedi. So why in The Mandalorian Season 3 will he be back with Din Djarin? With Grogu going with Luke, Din’s quest was over and he was free to go back to doing whatever he wanted.
