Star Wars is Setting Up Grogu as the Next Yoda

Before his real name, Grogu, was revealed in season two of The Mandalorian, fans affectionately called him Baby Yoda – a nickname that stuck. Disney preferred the name “The Child” to avoid confusing viewers into thinking he was a young Yoda. However, the latest trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu strongly suggests Grogu is meant to carry on Yoda’s legacy. The upcoming film is therefore crucial, not only for Grogu’s story, but for the future of the entire Star Wars franchise.
