12 Years Later, 'Mandalorian and Grogu' Is Rebooting A Forgotten Star Wars Villain
"With only a few months left before release, we finally have a detailed trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu, the silver-screen spinoff of the show that launched Disney+. From the looks of it, it was worth the wait. There's something for every fan here: unmasked Din Djarin, Grogu being a scamp, an Ardennian shopkeeper almost certainly voiced by Martin Scorsese, and a Hutt speaking Basic."
"This figure is actually Embo, the bounty hunter who was featured in a handful of episodes of The Clone Wars. A dedicated bounty hunter, he was sent on missions ranging from defending a farm from Hondo Ohnaka to kidnapping Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. He's not exactly a chatty guy, and when he does speak, it's exclusively in his native language of Kyuzo."
"His involvement in The Mandalorian and Grogu has been rumored for more than a year now, but this trailer finally confirms it. However, the timeline is still a little murky. Embo's brief appearance in the Mandalorian and Grogu trailer. Lucasfilm During the Clone Wars, Embo served as a bodyguard for the Hutts, and now it seems like he's back on their payroll, hunting down Mando and Grogu."
A detailed trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu reveals unmasked Din Djarin, playful Grogu, an Ardennian shopkeeper likely voiced by Martin Scorsese, and a Hutt speaking Basic. The trailer includes a deep-cut appearance for fans of Star Wars: The Clone Wars in the form of bounty hunter Embo. A shadowy figure appears while a Hutt warns, "You will suffer, and then it will be his turn," implying the hunter is targeting Din Djarin and Grogu on behalf of the Hutts. Embo served as a Hutt bodyguard, speaks only Kyuzo, and is known for a wide-brimmed metal hat. Rumors of his involvement are confirmed by the trailer, though his post-Return of the Jedi timeline remains unclear.
