    Description:
    Giancarlo Esposito has hinted at the future of Grogu in The Mandalorian.

    FULL STORY ======================================================================

    Grogu (aka Baby Yoda) is already a pretty powerful little being in the Star Wars universe. In season 1 of The Mandalorian, the doe-eyed internet
    sensation used telekinesis to block and redirect flames, force choke foes
    (and sometimes friends) and launch a storming Mudhorn across the desert
    floor.

    Then, in season 2, the same Force-sensitive child meditated atop the Seeing Stone, levitating surrounding stones and creating a repellent forcefield that sent Mando (Pedro Pascal) flying.

    But Grogu may have even more powers up his sleeve for The Mandalorian season
    3 including one reserved for only the most powerful Jedi. Here's everything you need to know about The Book of Boba Fett How to watch the Star Wars

    According to recent comments made by series villain Giancarlo Esposito at GalaxyCon , Moff Gideons pursuit of Grogu is for a very different reason than many people think."

    "This child has magic powers, [is] 50 years old, and can see the future, Esposito told a young fan, and we want everyone to know, eventually on this show, that [Grogu] could save our universe."

    So, in addition to levitating, choking and shield-making, Baby Yoda can apparently see the future which is an ability weve come across before in the troubled visions of Anakin and Luke Skywalker. Analysis: What does this mean for season 3?

    Its fairly safe to assume, then, that Grogu will be returning for the shows third season, despite being whisked away by Luke for Jedi training during the dramatic season 2 finale.

    We already knew Gideon was interested in Grogu because of the latters high midichlorian-count which in turn led viewers to conclude that the villains motive lay in reproducing and wielding Grogus power in other beings but it now seems the little green alien has a much higher purpose.

    If Grogu can save [the] universe, that means the universe must be in danger. At present, that existential danger isnt clear in the show the main stakes have so far come from Mandos paternal relationship with Grogu.

    Interestingly, both Anakin and Luke were considered chosen ones with a
    destiny to bring balance to the force. That sounds a lot like a destiny to save the universe, and if the parallels between Grogu and the Skywalkers continue, might the former have more in common with the dark side than we think?

    Well have to wait until season 3 to find out though that isnt likely to be before 2022. A spin-off show, The Book of Boba Fett , will be arriving first
    , and is anticipated to arrive in December 2021. The best movies on Disney Plus
