Within the newest episode of “The Mandalorian,” Grogu has a flashback to the Siege of the Jedi Temple, when Anakin Skywalker led the 501st Legion of clone troopers to execute each single Jedi they might discover within the temple — even the younglings. We knew Grogu was dwelling within the temple on the time, however we hadn’t seen how he obtained out till now. What makes the scene efficient is that it isn’t a identified Jedi who saves the now-Mandalorian foundling. We do not see Obi-Wan, or Jocasta Nu, or Shaak Ti, and even Grogu’s potential mom, the late Yaddle. 

No, it’s Ahmed Greatest’s personal Kelleran Beq who saves the little youngling from being killed by clones, carrying a really cool engraved gown and wielding two lightsabers like a badass (one in every of only a few Power customers to take action). That is an extremely rad scene, that includes some nice lightsaber films and the inclusion of Temuera Morrison voicing the clone troopers once more.

The truth that Beq not solely is a part of the canon now, however has such an essential function in a key occasion in “Star Wars” canon is a incredible gesture of goodwill. His look additionally pokes enjoyable on the in style Darth Jar Jar concept that imagines the Gungan was at all times meant to be unveiled as a Darkish Lord of the Sith, primarily based on feedback from Lucas concerning the character having a giant goal to the story of the prequels. To see Greatest play not a Sith, however a Jedi, looks like one of the best ways to acknowledge this joke.

However wait, it will get higher.
