Din Djarin / The Mandalorian The Mandalorian, sometimes abbreviated as Mando, is a sobriquet for Din Djarin, the protagonist of The Mandalorian television series. Introduced as a bounty hunter, he is a member of the Mandalorian culture, as evidenced by his beskar armor and his distinctive helmet, which he never removes in front of anyone. He was a "foundling" who was rescued at a young age by the Mandalorians and adopted into their culture prior to the events of the series, after his parents were murdered by Separatist battle droids during the Clone Wars, which resulted in his intense hatred of droids. In the television series, the Mandalorian encounters a young alien known as "The Child", whom he attempts to protect from a remnant of the now-fallen Galactic Empire. The Mandalorian is portrayed and voiced by Pedro Pascal, and stunt actors Brendan Wayne and Lateef Crowder perform as body doubles when Pascal is unavailable. Pascal has cited Clint Eastwood as an influence on the character, and many comparisons have been drawn between the Mandalorian and Eastwood's Man with No Name. The Mandalorian creator Jon Favreau suggested Pascal watch Akira Kurosawa's samurai films and Eastwood's Spaghetti Westerns as preparation for the role. The Mandalorian character and Pascal's performance have been well received by audiences and critics. Although 50 years old, he is still an infant by the standards of his species, and although he cannot yet speak, he demonstrates a strong natural ability with The Force. A remnant of the Galactic Empire led by Moff Gideon is seeking the child to extract its blood for Dr. Pershing's secret experiments; the bounty hunter known as "The Mandalorian" is hired to track Grogu down. Instead of turning him over, however, the Mandalorian attempts to protect the child from the Imperials. The child has been hugely popular with fans and reviewers, becoming the show's breakout character, and the subject of many Internet memes. The character was conceived by Jon Favreau out of a desire to explore the mystery around Yoda and his species, The child is mostly a creation of animatronics and puppetry, although accentuated with computer-generated imagery. He is voiced by sound editor David Acord with the aid of various sound effects. The Guardian called Baby Yoda "2019's biggest new character", and many have described him as a key part in the success of the Disney+ streaming service. Bo-Katan Kryze Bo-Katan Kryze is a Mandalorian warrior and the former ruler of Mandalore from House Kryze who appears in "Chapter 11: The Heiress" and "Chapter 16: The Rescue". Bo-Katan is portrayed by Katee Sackhoff, who previously voiced the character in animated form in Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels. In the third season, Bo-Katan is credited as a main cast member, the first character other than the Mandalorian and Grogu to be credited as anything other than co-starring. In "Chapter 11: The Heiress", Bo-Katan and the Nite Owls rescue The Mandalorian and The Child. She introduces herself, revealing her heritage as a Mandalorian, and that Din Djarin's group are zealots who wish to restore ancient Mandalorian traditions. The Mandalorian leaves rejecting their help. Later Bo-Katan and the Nite Owls again rescue The Mandalorian. In return for information he reluctantly agrees to help them seize a shipment of weapons. During the raid Bo-Katan changes plan, deciding to take the whole ship, not just the weapons. When they capture the bridge, Bo-Katan interrogates the head officer, wanting to know about the Dark Saber. Bo-Katan was impressed by the Mandalorian and invites him to join them, but he must continue his quest, so she tells him to go to the forest planet of Corvus, to find the Jedi Ahsoka Tano. In "Chapter 16" Bo-Katan helps The Mandalorian to rescue The Child from Moff Gideon. In season 3, the Mandalorian sets out on a pilgrimage to the mines of Mandalore and needs Bo-Katan's help. At first she refuses, but when the Mandalorian gets into trouble, he sends Grogu to get her help, and she races to Mandalore and saves him. They find the Living Waters and the Mandalorian bathes in the waters, only to fall into it. Bo-Katan saves him again and as they return to Bo-Katan's home, they are attacked by Imperials and her home is destroyed. The Mandalorian takes her to the Mandalorian hideout, where he delivers proof of his pilgrimage and Bo-Katan is also accepted as she too bathed in the Waters.
