Sorry but wrong wrong wrong
Mandalorian is about din period
If they want to do a show about other mandalorians they can call it mandalorians
If they want to do one about Bo katan they can give her a show and so forth but the mandalorian is about din and grogu
Theres a reason the first and even the second seasons where the best is the mainly focused on mando
Mando saved Star Wars to get rid of him would be a crime
The Mandolorian is The Mandolorian, Mando, Pedro Pascal. Is a really silly idea to change the most important actor of a succesfull opera. I understand that in USA there is a problem with the gender of the actor, but is stupid, unfair, also offensive for the female gender change the male leader of this serie with a woman only because ” we too ” need a woman. Anyway Mando Away, me away from the wild bunch of stupids who fire him. No more Disney channel. We in Italy have respect for whomen, LGBTQ, everyone, But this story of the need for the female actress like a must is really boring. Wrong Wrong Wrong.
Humans relax. Its not Disney, Pedro has said he may walk away. Gou guys get so worked up about non issues meanwhile the economy jobs AI are real changes we should be preparing for but you are so fixed in Talking heads say. Pedro has said he will likely step away soon. It happens as othe projects are of more interest. The last of us conflicted with production of season 3. Thats a lot for both studios and the actor to navigate every year. Hoe many actors you know play mutiple lead characters on series going on at the same time? You guys are selfish and childish. Relax Pedro said he will be leaving amd not Disney. So Disney is pivoting to keep providing you with a product you like. Sheeesh never seen a bigger group of babies that ironically calls other people babies.
This butthead is also wrong about us “craving” more female-led shows. Closer to the truth is that we are getting exhausted with female leads being artificially forced upon us. And my impression half way through season 3 of Mando is that that is where this show is headed. It looks like I was correct. Watch me also be correct when I say this is going to cause a downturn in viewer numbers. Seasons 1 and 2 will be remembered as the high points. Season 3 will be remembered as the beginning of the end.
And there are many female viewers who are so sick and tired of this whole woke agenda and race & gender DEI. I am a woman and say this series has to be Din and Grogu. Love Armorer and Starbuck but no it is not going to be about them. They can create new series for them like they did for Ahsoka if they want to. This series started with Din and Grogu so it ends with them period.
I agree, as a WOMAN. This show is not about gender, it’s about Mando and Gogru. I think at this point he begins working for the New Republic and a second series… The Mandalorian:Return to Mandalore” starts with Bo-Katan finding the Mythasour (I know I spelled that wrong) begins (Disney+, you hear me? Get started!) It’s just a show… Chill out people.
MORE WOKE PROPAGANDA AND DISINFORMATION FROM THIS DISNEY SCHILL……JON FAVREAU, DAVE FILONI AND PEDRO PASCAL SAVED THE FALTERING STAR WARS FRANCHISE WITH THEIR PRICELESS CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE MANDALORIAN.KATHLEEN KENNEDY ALMOST DESTROYED THE WHOLE STAR WARS FRANCHISE WITH HER NAUSEATING FEMINIST AGENDA AND THE RESULTING BLASPHEMOUS ABOMINATION KNOWN AS “THE SEQUEL TRILOGY”. WHICH SHOULD BE ERASED FROM CANON ONCE AND FOR ALL.❤️🙏
Filoni si as bad as KK: He loves to shoehorn his pet characters into everything, and his pet characters are mostly badly written women like Booooo-Karen or Sabine Sue.
What a terrible article. Firstly its all speculation. Secondly its just woke garbage tryin to cancel an awesome show. You should quit your job as a “writer” and go back to mcdonalds and earn some actual money

Yep…He yielded power to Bo Katan that no man would ever yield. They emasculated him the second that she was introduced. She saved his life. She’s the hero of the whole story at this point.
Agreed! 100% and I’m female. I love the mystery and knowing it’s Mando Djarin under there just makes it better… I might watch whatever they come out with but KEEP PEDRO! #pedropascal
Count me in for keeping Mando and Grogu in this story. Re: Chief Magistrate who befriends Djin, gave them that home as a place to stay in between forthcoming adventures. That said, there better be more of Mando and Grogu!!
Couldn’t agree more. He is Mano and I have 0 interest in watching a female lead takeover the role of Mando. Throw the show in the garbage. Once aga they ruin a perfectly good thing. This is why I hate disney
Mando was the main reason I got Disney I hope Pascal decides to stay what will happen to Grogu and before I’m reminded that it’s just a show for entertainment..duh I know
As a former little girl, and now a mother raising little girls, we’re pretty sick of “female-led” action series. Its just not appealing to my daughters, my son, or myself the way we enjoyed the first two seasons. Action movies with female leads used to be interesting because they were unexpected and rare. Now it’s the only thing you can find. I think action movies generally attract a male audience, and women were attracted to the idea of being saved by a man. Or saving the day in a female way. It always feels like studios are trying to force us to like something that just isn’t appealing to us. I was excited about Kenobi because obi wan is my favorite character and i love ewan McGregor, but it ended up being about this horrible, bratty child. It seems like disney keeps luring us in with movies they know we’d want to see, then switching them out with female characters with terrible and unrealistic personalities.
I agree with you about the female leads……especially when they are forced upon us the way they are these days. Mark my words…….they will be “raising the bar “ soon. We are not very far away from a trans hero/superhero.
Yes, I have found that some women are eager to participate in their own oppression as long as they get that swee male approval. In this case is extra sad as she herself says this is what she is teaching her daughters.
Oppression? Bo-Katan is now the leader of Mandalore, and I’m happy for her. But she can stay a side character; I don’t think anyone wants her or other women from the show removed, but the show was originally about a man and his kid for the two main characters, and that’s how it should stay.
Seriously? Only men like watching action movies? women wants to be saved by men? which propaganda’s fed you? you’re just as bad as the parents teaching their sons how incompetent women are in technology and in any “boy game”. i teach my lil girl all the tech & science and she’s good at it. your boys still refuse to talk to or accept her in their group.
It would be a real shame to get rid of Mando, isn’t that’s why it’s called The Mandolorian. No, Pedro Pascal needs to stay on as Din. I’m not against Bo-Katan but, she needs to have her own show.
I am ok with the show following any of the stories/adventures of any of the Mandalorians. It could be a different one every week and I’d be ok with it.
The show is The Mandalorian, not Din.
It was about a specific Mandalorian. He’s even called Mando.
Honestly though, I couldnt care less about Din’s adventures. The show is very basic in its writing. 3 seasons in and we don’t learn anything about Din and his background. It’s forgettable plot points.
And there are many female viewers who are so sick and tired of this whole woke agenda and race & gender DEI. I am a woman and say this series has to be Din and Grogu. Love Armorer and Starbuck but no it is not going to be about them. They can create new series for them like they did for Ahsoka if they want to. This series started with Din and Grogu so it ends with them period.
Nothing but fails here. Without Grogu this show would’ve been stopped by now. Grogu is a precondition for this shows existence, and therefore original Mando is also largely a requirement as well. If they want to make another failed spinoff like Book, that required Grogu and mando to even be watchable, they can go ahead but the Mandolorian = Din Grogu and original Mando.
I agree with the prior comments. The show is Din and Grogu. They’ll completely ruin it trying to stick other main characters in it. Make the others their own series and leave mandalorian alone. The shows great and been a success without Bo or anyone else trying to tip the scales for the lead.
I also agree with this ridiculous led-women thingy Disney is continuing to shove down our throats. Enough is enough already. The failed movies and their TV series should tell them that idea is a huge fail!! So stop! Disney’s continued fail attempts on these new shows need to stop. Take a breath and a step back, in time. You use to put out great movies, now….not so much.
Love and Thunder:Fail…Portmanteau role was a crappy woman pushing fill in. Awful.
Wakanda 2, fail again, pushing the women thing down our throats. Fail!!!
Stop, stop ⏹.
I’m not watching anymore crappy spinoff. If you ruin Din and Grogu by adding the Bo thing with it or tamper with the great journeys those two have, I’ll stop watching all together.
The Mandalorian is the only Star Wars spin off I watch. The others get to be just overload.
And or a fail. Moon Night, they had to call it a night, fail. Willow, poor writing, story and crappy acting and shoving the guy thing and trying to stick women in a leading role, fail!
The list goes on.
Disney = Fail!

You are SO WRONG!
It’s Pedro that carries the mandalorian!
Full stop. If he’s gone next season, 50 to 75% of his fans are gone and good luck. I will be with them! Remove him and the shows toast. Can’t they do anything right?
I grew up in the 80s as a tomboy who loved action and sci-fi movies, and I loved the male heroes. This article is wrong and the author simply wants to rile everyone up; it obviously worked. First of all, Pedro hasn’t left the show; he’s primarily the voice and personality of Din Djarin. He’s a busy man who’s always off filming other things, so he’s usually not on the set in the suit. In a recent interview (posted on YouTube), he was asked if he would want to be included in Star Wars movies; he said yes. Second, Bo-Katan is not taking over The Mandalorian; Season 3 ended with Din now being a bounty hunter for the New Republic police, which sets up his arc once again. Let’s be appreciative of the fact that many story plotlines were tied up in Season 3. We saw the end of Dr. Pershing’s story; the end of Moff Gideon and his attempts at cloning; the reunification of Mandalorians; the takeback of Mandalore; Bo-Katan becoming the ruler of Mandalore; Din redeeming himself to his covert. All of the things people were talking about at the end of Seasons 1 and 2, the questions we had, have all been answered and resolved. Now it’s back to Din and Grogu for Season 4, which allegedly begins filming in the fall.
Thank You! All this outrage over NOTHING! You laid it out perfectly AND you’re a woman!
Does anyone think Pedro will want to play Mando for the rest of his life?
There might come a time when he wants to move on to other projects and you know what?
Life will go on!

Hey I’m all for strong female leads. I could have loved Rey if she wasn’t a Mary Sue and the movies didn’t dismantle my childhood with crap writing and directing. But… MOST of us feel woke enough. We don’t need you lecturing us and virtue signaling. We already don’t like racism, bigotry, etc…etc… We are here for escapism, adventure, to see our heros and villains: you know ..FUN!!!. I don’t sit down to watch Star Wars content with a desire to get lectured on the evils of the white male patriarchy. Or see my favorite characters swapped out in the middle of their own shoes for others. Do a Bo Katan show! … I’ll watch it if it’s good, don’t steal Mando from us.
Also I’m all for inclusion, but the LBGTQ(Etc…) community Is like what? …10-20% of the population?
You can’t inject huge amounts of that culture, (Especially in Ham fisted, poorly executed ways) into the mainstream content without alienating a lot of 80-90% of the rest of us regardless of our politics/beliefs.
…And good luck trying to gender swap an entire franchise with a historical predominantly male demographic without alienating the preexisting fan base which already included many females and LGBTQ people. You’ll kill it.
I think they could easily bring Sabine in from the Rebels cast to fill the role. She can be introduced in Ahsoka and easily transitioned to a Mando type role. She was a loner, like Mando until she hooked up with The Ghost. Hopefully this can all lead to an Ezra Bridger series or movie. It appears Thrawn is coming back so why not Ezra? Sorry off topic.. yeah my vote is totally for Sabine.
Din’jarn is the star of the show, however the person in the armor dose not have to be Pedro.
There are actually 3-4 people who wear the armor for the production. One guy who is a weapon expert, one with hand to hand combat skill, one for stunts, and then Pedro when he needs to show face under the helmet.
Majority of Season 3, Din didn’t remove the helmet.
Just find someone else who can match the voice, and continue to produce programming.
This is literally the easiest role to recast in the history of movies and television. It was always stupid for Din to remove his helmet – made him lose his cool guy style, but I think they sorted that out. They could recast him and not tell us and nobody would ever even know
I will cancel my subscription of Mando leaves. And no, most people do not want to see female leads. This article is totally wrong. Their ratings our dropping dramatically because of the views points of this article they use in their show.
The reason the Mandalorian has been a success is that it gives the fans exactly what they want. For some reason, the book of Boba Fett came out afterwards, even though the adventures of Boba Fett were something fans had waited 40 years to see. If they had made the book of Boba Fett first with Pedro Pascal, as Boba Fett, with the kinds of stories and characters the fans like, it would’ve been a success. Instead, they first made the Mandalorian who was exactly the kind of roaming adventurer we knew Boba Fett was.
Disney later decided to bring us back to the Prequels with Boba Fett’s nearly lifeless, Prequel personality on display in stories with too much political and territorial discussions, just like the Prequels. IG-11 has more personality than Temuera Morrison’s stodgy, uninspiring Boba Fett. Of course, that series was a dud. The only thing good about the book of Boba Fett were the episodes where the Mandalorian visited and livened things up.
The fans want the kind of complex character Pedro Pascal easily delivers, a dazzling, conflicted swashbuckler with depth and heart. And that, is why Disney needs to make every effort to keep Pedro Pascal active in the Star Wars universe.
He’s not leaving; he’s very busy with multiple projects all the time, so he can’t be on set most of the time. Don’t believe this garbage about him leaving; he loves Star Wars too much.
I hope they are setting up for Din to defeat the Mythrasaur and become the new leader and grogu become a link to bring the mandalorians and jedi together. If they wanted a female lead story they should have kept Cara Dune who is already tied down to any specific side plot of star wars and could have done nothing with her story
Pedro aka Din is THE Mandalorian.
Nobody cares about that godawful Bo-Karen character. It is clear where Favreau´s original ideas had to be changed to shoehorn this dead weight into the series.
S1 was perfect, S2 already showed some disturbing signs of shoehorning of Filoni´s pet characters into it, S3 is a disaster with absurd, disconneced plot, because it exists only to replace everyone´s beloved Mando with the most loathsome sociopathic piece of poodoo in the galaxy who wanted her sister dead, terrorized civilians, broke her own creed (the same creed she wanted her sister dead for) and than cried for help and guilt-tripped Obi-Wan and Ahsoka to fight her battle for her.
Stop trying to make her likable by associating her with the good guys. She could have a decent redemption if she sacrificed her life, but she keeps falling upwards instead.
Din Djarin/Grogu are one of the most succesful marketing symbols at the moment, there’s no way Disney will give up on them. There’s so many non-SW people that got into Star Wars because of Mando/Baby Yoda, they aren’t stupid to leave them aside, plus they gain a lot of money from them.
Nobody wants more female leads in Superhero movies. Marvel is losing audience because the only women who watch their movies are basically those who take their sons and the 10% who actually like the stuff. I had to twist my daughter’s arm to watch Black Panther. If I had a Son, he would have driven me to the theater. I suspect that this is where the majority of Marvel’s female audience comes from. Boys making their Moms take them to the theater.
Wonder Woman will never become Wonderman. Bo Katan is not the least bit interesting, but at least she’s an original character and not some dumb gender flip.
The Mandalorian is about Din Djarin and Grogu. TBH Grogu is why I started watching. However he and Mando’s chemistry/bond have really evolved and are essential to the show. I WANT TO SEE GROGU TRAIN AND BECOME A MANDALORIAN. ONE WHO WALKS BOTH WORLDS SO HE CAN REMOVE HIS HELMET.
He is only half of the Mando but wants to act like he is the whole character. Heck they can kill him off to give grogu growth and have grogu become the mandalorian.
Is there any real basis for this speculation. Pedro is basically a voice actor as a stunt double is actually wearing the suit most of the time. This is a job he can easily continue while pursuing other projects.
It’s not true at all. It’s Comic Con-type sites and idiot YouTubers with their own channels who created this rumor, and it’s a baseless rumor. He’s still with the show.
Season 4 HAS to prominently feature Bo Katan, especially against the Imperial Remnant to whom the Mandalorians owe SO much payback for the Night of a Thousand Tears.
I wouldn’t continue to watch if Pedro Pascal left. I want him to continue to be the lead not the female. It’s his show and it wouldn’t be the same at all.
Yes. Then we can forget Harrison Ford for the next Indiana Jones film and cast Whoopi’s Goldberg instead. But of course still call it Indiana Jones. Makes about as much sense to me.
As a lead female in my own life, it’s nice to see one take that role every now and then. BUT…. The Mandalorian isn’t the show without din and grogu. He is the Mando! I fell in love with the show because of him and group, not for Bo-katan or the Armour. Pedro is one of my absolute FAVORITE actors of all time and he plays the role perfectly. So, my opinion, the lead lady role needs to stay with Ahsoka… If Pedro didn’t come back, I’d be happy with them leaving it with grogu as his son, living in a nice house on Nevaro.
The reason this TV show has been followed so much is Mando it’s all about his adventures and if Mando is not going to be the main character in the TV series then it’s definitely not the same, the other characters are just part of what is happening with Mando and his adventures, I don’t think I will be interested in watching Series 4 if Mando is not the main character
Nope! If Din and Grogu do not appear in the next Mandolarian, then I do not care about Bo Katan and the rest of the Mandos. I want to be clear, Grogu and Dean are the ONLY reason I watched the series.
Ok guys. Why is no one saying what really made the show…. Baby Yoda. Absolutely adore him.
Pedro I like but face it anybody could have been in that suit since u don’t see his face & it would have been just as good. Grogu had us all in love with the show. They take him off & I for one don’t really care about it. Hate the no face stuff. Gets old.
Mando is THE Manadalorian. Do whatever it takes to keep him especially played by Pedro Pascal.
Bo-Katan deserves to remain in a key role as the character has come to life portrayed by Katee Sackhoff!
Although Pedro plays the face and voice of Mando there’s 2 other actors/stuntmen that is in the armour more than Pedro is. Brendan Wayne and Lateef Crowder are the real Mando in my opinion. They do most if not all of the action in the show. That to me is what the show is about. So the show itself can live on without Pedro. Besides there’s so much more to the story of the Mandalorians than just Din and Grogu. People who has watched the Clone Wars and Rebels know.
Oh no; he can’t go. I watch him in both of his father figure series. I just discovered Grogu and Din on my IPhone and I can’t bare to lose Pedro Pasquale. It’s what I look forward to all week. Katherine
How about just getting another actor to play Din Djarin? Pedro was basically just doing the voice of the original Boba Fett (before they overdubbed it with Temura Morrison.) So they could just have another actor do that. Especially since his face is covered and it is stunt guys in the suit for much of the show anyway.

Definitely just not him. Not many are craving female led shows. Most of female led shows do abysmal in ratings.

So say the MEN. There are MANY, MANY female viewers who want female leads. So get over it.

And there are many female viewers who are so sick and tired of this whole woke agenda and race & gender DEI. I am a woman and say this series has to be Din and Grogu.

Make the female lead shows better and stop taking over stuff like Mando…

You can include me too. Season 3 was awful. This show is dead. Ratings don’t lie

Yep…He yielded power to Bo Katan that no man would ever yield. They emasculated him the second that she was introduced. She saved his life. She’s the hero of the whole story at this point.
Brenda
Yes!
Sean Johnson
100% agree!!!
John St Martin
I concur a wholeheartedly with the first response I read in this comments I just want to add mine so that maybe somebody at Disney John Favreau
is paying attention because the mandalorian is Din
Djarin and to use anybody else and call it the mandalorian would as I quote would be a crime
Sunny
They know too well nobody would watch a solo show about Booo. Everyone hates her.
Miriam
Agreed! 100% and I’m female. I love the mystery and knowing it’s Mando Djarin under there just makes it better… I might watch whatever they come out with but KEEP PEDRO! #pedropascal
MO
Agree 100%
Megan
THANK YOU!!!!
DianeT
Count me in for keeping Mando and Grogu in this story. Re: Chief Magistrate who befriends Djin, gave them that home as a place to stay in between forthcoming adventures. That said, there better be more of Mando and Grogu!!
Chea
Couldn’t agree more. He is Mano and I have 0 interest in watching a female lead takeover the role of Mando. Throw the show in the garbage. Once aga they ruin a perfectly good thing. This is why I hate disney
Deborah
Keep lando. Pedro Pascal makes the show.
Billy
I will not subscribe to Disney if they get rid of him. Period..
Remy
What’s this obsession to give side characters their own shiw. The Armorer? Really? No one cares about her.
People barely cared about Bo Katan.
Danny
The armorer was actually Darth maul’s apprentice just a fyi she will be a traitor before the end
Dany
Agree with you 100%… A show about the Armorer wouldn’t pass further then a pilot
Marie Ray
We don’t even know who is under that helmet. So any actor could play the part. I love Pedro Pascal but I’ve only seen him a few times on this show.
Frankie
Mando was the main reason I got Disney I hope Pascal decides to stay what will happen to Grogu and before I’m reminded that it’s just a show for entertainment..duh I know
Tifffffany
As a former little girl, and now a mother raising little girls, we’re pretty sick of “female-led” action series. Its just not appealing to my daughters, my son, or myself the way we enjoyed the first two seasons. Action movies with female leads used to be interesting because they were unexpected and rare. Now it’s the only thing you can find. I think action movies generally attract a male audience, and women were attracted to the idea of being saved by a man. Or saving the day in a female way. It always feels like studios are trying to force us to like something that just isn’t appealing to us. I was excited about Kenobi because obi wan is my favorite character and i love ewan McGregor, but it ended up being about this horrible, bratty child. It seems like disney keeps luring us in with movies they know we’d want to see, then switching them out with female characters with terrible and unrealistic personalities.
RRay
I agree with you about the female leads……especially when they are forced upon us the way they are these days. Mark my words…….they will be “raising the bar “ soon. We are not very far away from a trans hero/superhero.
ZenMasterBeatz
Let’s get ahead of this one…SuperThey? Captain Pronoun? Wonder Trans-Woman?
TangoRomeoKilo
Women hating women. Sad days we live in.
Bellini
Yes, I have found that some women are eager to participate in their own oppression as long as they get that swee male approval. In this case is extra sad as she herself says this is what she is teaching her daughters.
Heather
Oppression? Bo-Katan is now the leader of Mandalore, and I’m happy for her. But she can stay a side character; I don’t think anyone wants her or other women from the show removed, but the show was originally about a man and his kid for the two main characters, and that’s how it should stay.
Viv
I agree with you Tifffffany 100%!! I am a woman and I dislike stupid brain washed women like those who are trashing Tiffffany here.
Brenda
Agreed.
KING
Seriously? Only men like watching action movies? women wants to be saved by men? which propaganda’s fed you? you’re just as bad as the parents teaching their sons how incompetent women are in technology and in any “boy game”. i teach my lil girl all the tech & science and she’s good at it. your boys still refuse to talk to or accept her in their group.
Jan
It would be a real shame to get rid of Mando, isn’t that’s why it’s called The Mandolorian. No, Pedro Pascal needs to stay on as Din. I’m not against Bo-Katan but, she needs to have her own show.
John
Most won’t agree with me. That’s ok.
I am ok with the show following any of the stories/adventures of any of the Mandalorians. It could be a different one every week and I’d be ok with it.
The show is The Mandalorian, not Din.
Remy
It was about a specific Mandalorian. He’s even called Mando.
Honestly though, I couldnt care less about Din’s adventures. The show is very basic in its writing. 3 seasons in and we don’t learn anything about Din and his background. It’s forgettable plot points.
Viv
And there are many female viewers who are so sick and tired of this whole woke agenda and race & gender DEI. I am a woman and say this series has to be Din and Grogu. Love Armorer and Starbuck but no it is not going to be about them. They can create new series for them like they did for Ahsoka if they want to. This series started with Din and Grogu so it ends with them period.
ZenMasterBeatz
No, that’s not why it’s called the Mandalorian and his name isn’t Mando, it’s Din Jarin.
Chris
Nothing but fails here. Without Grogu this show would’ve been stopped by now. Grogu is a precondition for this shows existence, and therefore original Mando is also largely a requirement as well. If they want to make another failed spinoff like Book, that required Grogu and mando to even be watchable, they can go ahead but the Mandolorian = Din Grogu and original Mando.
Kim
If Mando was taken out it would devaste grogu. That is his dad . It would not be the same
Ann
I agree with the prior comments. The show is Din and Grogu. They’ll completely ruin it trying to stick other main characters in it. Make the others their own series and leave mandalorian alone. The shows great and been a success without Bo or anyone else trying to tip the scales for the lead.
I also agree with this ridiculous led-women thingy Disney is continuing to shove down our throats. Enough is enough already. The failed movies and their TV series should tell them that idea is a huge fail!! So stop! Disney’s continued fail attempts on these new shows need to stop. Take a breath and a step back, in time. You use to put out great movies, now….not so much.
Love and Thunder:Fail…Portmanteau role was a crappy woman pushing fill in. Awful.
Wakanda 2, fail again, pushing the women thing down our throats. Fail!!!
Stop, stop ⏹.
I’m not watching anymore crappy spinoff. If you ruin Din and Grogu by adding the Bo thing with it or tamper with the great journeys those two have, I’ll stop watching all together.
The Mandalorian is the only Star Wars spin off I watch. The others get to be just overload.
And or a fail. Moon Night, they had to call it a night, fail. Willow, poor writing, story and crappy acting and shoving the guy thing and trying to stick women in a leading role, fail!
The list goes on.
Disney = Fail!

Recast Din with Sam Witwer
Douglas Fish
You are SO WRONG!
It’s Pedro that carries the mandalorian!
Full stop. If he’s gone next season, 50 to 75% of his fans are gone and good luck. I will be with them! Remove him and the shows toast. Can’t they do anything right?
Heather
I grew up in the 80s as a tomboy who loved action and sci-fi movies, and I loved the male heroes. This article is wrong and the author simply wants to rile everyone up; it obviously worked. First of all, Pedro hasn’t left the show; he’s primarily the voice and personality of Din Djarin. He’s a busy man who’s always off filming other things, so he’s usually not on the set in the suit. In a recent interview (posted on YouTube), he was asked if he would want to be included in Star Wars movies; he said yes. Second, Bo-Katan is not taking over The Mandalorian; Season 3 ended with Din now being a bounty hunter for the New Republic police, which sets up his arc once again. Let’s be appreciative of the fact that many story plotlines were tied up in Season 3. We saw the end of Dr. Pershing’s story; the end of Moff Gideon and his attempts at cloning; the reunification of Mandalorians; the takeback of Mandalore; Bo-Katan becoming the ruler of Mandalore; Din redeeming himself to his covert. All of the things people were talking about at the end of Seasons 1 and 2, the questions we had, have all been answered and resolved. Now it’s back to Din and Grogu for Season 4, which allegedly begins filming in the fall.
Dee
Thank You! All this outrage over NOTHING! You laid it out perfectly AND you’re a woman!
Does anyone think Pedro will want to play Mando for the rest of his life?
There might come a time when he wants to move on to other projects and you know what?
Life will go on!

Hey I’m all for strong female leads. I could have loved Rey if she wasn’t a Mary Sue and the movies didn’t dismantle my childhood with crap writing and directing. But… MOST of us feel woke enough. We don’t need you lecturing us and virtue signaling. We already don’t like racism, bigotry, etc…etc… We are here for escapism, adventure, to see our heros and villains: you know ..FUN!!!. I don’t sit down to watch Star Wars content with a desire to get lectured on the evils of the white male patriarchy. Or see my favorite characters swapped out in the middle of their own shoes for others. Do a Bo Katan show! … I’ll watch it if it’s good, don’t steal Mando from us.
Also I’m all for inclusion, but the LBGTQ(Etc…) community Is like what? …10-20% of the population?
You can’t inject huge amounts of that culture, (Especially in Ham fisted, poorly executed ways) into the mainstream content without alienating a lot of 80-90% of the rest of us regardless of our politics/beliefs.
…And good luck trying to gender swap an entire franchise with a historical predominantly male demographic without alienating the preexisting fan base which already included many females and LGBTQ people. You’ll kill it.
Jonathan
The alphabet squad is closer to 3% of the population, they’re just abnormally loud.
Doris
I think they could easily bring Sabine in from the Rebels cast to fill the role. She can be introduced in Ahsoka and easily transitioned to a Mando type role. She was a loner, like Mando until she hooked up with The Ghost. Hopefully this can all lead to an Ezra Bridger series or movie. It appears Thrawn is coming back so why not Ezra? Sorry off topic.. yeah my vote is totally for Sabine.
Kyle
Pedro as the Mandalorian is probably the greatest gig ever, it’s like the Hollywood equivalent of working from home or holding down multiple jobs.
Vinny L.
We need Mando !
We need Pedro’s voice !
We need Grogu !
We need Moff !
Mic drop !
Heather
We don’t need any more Moff Gideon. He’s dead; Grand Admiral Thrawn is coming, and I’m all for it. He makes Gideon look silly.
Cuen be xizor
Din’jarn is the star of the show, however the person in the armor dose not have to be Pedro.
There are actually 3-4 people who wear the armor for the production. One guy who is a weapon expert, one with hand to hand combat skill, one for stunts, and then Pedro when he needs to show face under the helmet.
Majority of Season 3, Din didn’t remove the helmet.
Just find someone else who can match the voice, and continue to produce programming.
Mudhorn
This is literally the easiest role to recast in the history of movies and television. It was always stupid for Din to remove his helmet – made him lose his cool guy style, but I think they sorted that out. They could recast him and not tell us and nobody would ever even know
Gary
I will cancel my subscription of Mando leaves. And no, most people do not want to see female leads. This article is totally wrong. Their ratings our dropping dramatically because of the views points of this article they use in their show.
Your Mom
Thank you!!

The reason the Mandalorian has been a success is that it gives the fans exactly what they want. For some reason, the book of Boba Fett came out afterwards, even though the adventures of Boba Fett were something fans had waited 40 years to see. If they had made the book of Boba Fett first with Pedro Pascal, as Boba Fett, with the kinds of stories and characters the fans like, it would’ve been a success. Instead, they first made the Mandalorian who was exactly the kind of roaming adventurer we knew Boba Fett was.
Disney later decided to bring us back to the Prequels with Boba Fett’s nearly lifeless, Prequel personality on display in stories with too much political and territorial discussions, just like the Prequels. IG-11 has more personality than Temuera Morrison’s stodgy, uninspiring Boba Fett. Of course, that series was a dud. The only thing good about the book of Boba Fett were the episodes where the Mandalorian visited and livened things up.
The fans want the kind of complex character Pedro Pascal easily delivers, a dazzling, conflicted swashbuckler with depth and heart. And that, is why Disney needs to make every effort to keep Pedro Pascal active in the Star Wars universe.
Heather
He’s not leaving; he’s very busy with multiple projects all the time, so he can’t be on set most of the time. Don’t believe this garbage about him leaving; he loves Star Wars too much.
Your Mom
Kathlean Kennedy should be the one to go. Not Pedro. Stop ruining Star Wars.
Carol hagerman
Pascal out and so will I.
Mims
No cute little baby Yoda and I’m out. Just saying, it’s all about Grogu and Din for me.
Adam
I hope they are setting up for Din to defeat the Mythrasaur and become the new leader and grogu become a link to bring the mandalorians and jedi together. If they wanted a female lead story they should have kept Cara Dune who is already tied down to any specific side plot of star wars and could have done nothing with her story
Douglas Fish
I hope Dizzy Disney is listening.
We all have said
NO PEDRO = NO SHOW
Luigi Maris
Totally agree. No Pedro no Mando no show.
Kai
Wasted 8min of my life to read this sh…
Lois
No. No. No. I only watch for Grogu…No Mando means no Grogu and no Grogu means no Disney me, lol.
cody
why couldn’t they just use his voice hes not even in the suit half the time, he could easily do that in one dat
Din
You should stop writing. Better yet, stop having ideas.
Jayson
We crave good shows, not shows catering to specific groups of individuals at the cost of quality.
Sunny
Pedro aka Din is THE Mandalorian.
Nobody cares about that godawful Bo-Karen character. It is clear where Favreau´s original ideas had to be changed to shoehorn this dead weight into the series.
S1 was perfect, S2 already showed some disturbing signs of shoehorning of Filoni´s pet characters into it, S3 is a disaster with absurd, disconneced plot, because it exists only to replace everyone´s beloved Mando with the most loathsome sociopathic piece of poodoo in the galaxy who wanted her sister dead, terrorized civilians, broke her own creed (the same creed she wanted her sister dead for) and than cried for help and guilt-tripped Obi-Wan and Ahsoka to fight her battle for her.
Stop trying to make her likable by associating her with the good guys. She could have a decent redemption if she sacrificed her life, but she keeps falling upwards instead.
J
Katy is awesome. Loved her as starbuck in BSG remake. I’m down with her being the Mando.
Vlad
Din Djarin/Grogu are one of the most succesful marketing symbols at the moment, there’s no way Disney will give up on them. There’s so many non-SW people that got into Star Wars because of Mando/Baby Yoda, they aren’t stupid to leave them aside, plus they gain a lot of money from them.
Beatrice
Don’t pee on my shoe and tell me it’s raining. If it’s The Mandelorian it’s about Mando, period.
Idontcare
The armorer has dozens of fans. 🤣🤣🤣
ZenMasterBeatz
Nobody wants more female leads in Superhero movies. Marvel is losing audience because the only women who watch their movies are basically those who take their sons and the 10% who actually like the stuff. I had to twist my daughter’s arm to watch Black Panther. If I had a Son, he would have driven me to the theater. I suspect that this is where the majority of Marvel’s female audience comes from. Boys making their Moms take them to the theater.
Wonder Woman will never become Wonderman. Bo Katan is not the least bit interesting, but at least she’s an original character and not some dumb gender flip.
Sharon S
The Mandalorian is about Din Djarin and Grogu. TBH Grogu is why I started watching. However he and Mando’s chemistry/bond have really evolved and are essential to the show. I WANT TO SEE GROGU TRAIN AND BECOME A MANDALORIAN. ONE WHO WALKS BOTH WORLDS SO HE CAN REMOVE HIS HELMET.
Robert
He is only half of the Mando but wants to act like he is the whole character. Heck they can kill him off to give grogu growth and have grogu become the mandalorian.
P Smith
Is there any real basis for this speculation. Pedro is basically a voice actor as a stunt double is actually wearing the suit most of the time. This is a job he can easily continue while pursuing other projects.
Heather
It’s not true at all. It’s Comic Con-type sites and idiot YouTubers with their own channels who created this rumor, and it’s a baseless rumor. He’s still with the show.
Luis
Third season was a DOA.
Star Wars is dead…the dark side reign supreme.
I cancelled my disney subscription.
Yuda
Literally nobody is craving for more forced female leads.
Pedro literally made the show great
As cool as Bo is and Armor are they weren’t the main focus
Hell, they even killed.ky favorite off,.Paz
And they destroyed the darksaber in such a dumb way to boot.
I hate this new season. It was garbage tbh
Well actually the only cool screen was that siege scene where the Mandalorians we’re using small unit tactics and jumping out of the dropship
Albert McClary
They said it all in the season finale…
“for Mand’alor! FOR MAND’ALOR!!!”.
Season 4 HAS to prominently feature Bo Katan, especially against the Imperial Remnant to whom the Mandalorians owe SO much payback for the Night of a Thousand Tears.
Janet
I wouldn’t continue to watch if Pedro Pascal left. I want him to continue to be the lead not the female. It’s his show and it wouldn’t be the same at all.
TaaylorMaade95
Yes. Then we can forget Harrison Ford for the next Indiana Jones film and cast Whoopi’s Goldberg instead. But of course still call it Indiana Jones. Makes about as much sense to me.
Megan
As a lead female in my own life, it’s nice to see one take that role every now and then. BUT…. The Mandalorian isn’t the show without din and grogu. He is the Mando! I fell in love with the show because of him and group, not for Bo-katan or the Armour. Pedro is one of my absolute FAVORITE actors of all time and he plays the role perfectly. So, my opinion, the lead lady role needs to stay with Ahsoka… If Pedro didn’t come back, I’d be happy with them leaving it with grogu as his son, living in a nice house on Nevaro.
Bluey
The reason this TV show has been followed so much is Mando it’s all about his adventures and if Mando is not going to be the main character in the TV series then it’s definitely not the same, the other characters are just part of what is happening with Mando and his adventures, I don’t think I will be interested in watching Series 4 if Mando is not the main character
Rocio
Nope! If Din and Grogu do not appear in the next Mandolarian, then I do not care about Bo Katan and the rest of the Mandos. I want to be clear, Grogu and Dean are the ONLY reason I watched the series.
Charles
Mando or nothing. Anything less is unacceptable.
Debb
Ok guys. Why is no one saying what really made the show…. Baby Yoda. Absolutely adore him.
Pedro I like but face it anybody could have been in that suit since u don’t see his face & it would have been just as good. Grogu had us all in love with the show. They take him off & I for one don’t really care about it. Hate the no face stuff. Gets old.
Kelly
No!! We watch for mando
Add more if you want but don’t take Pedro
Carlton
Mando is THE Manadalorian. Do whatever it takes to keep him especially played by Pedro Pascal.
Bo-Katan deserves to remain in a key role as the character has come to life portrayed by Katee Sackhoff!
Gabriele Dorna
I want to see shows with both the Armorer and Bo Katana. Why limit ourselves to just one when there’s so many options for good shows worth watching.
Tiger Fields
Although Pedro plays the face and voice of Mando there’s 2 other actors/stuntmen that is in the armour more than Pedro is. Brendan Wayne and Lateef Crowder are the real Mando in my opinion. They do most if not all of the action in the show. That to me is what the show is about. So the show itself can live on without Pedro. Besides there’s so much more to the story of the Mandalorians than just Din and Grogu. People who has watched the Clone Wars and Rebels know.
Katherine t
Oh no; he can’t go. I watch him in both of his father figure series. I just discovered Grogu and Din on my IPhone and I can’t bare to lose Pedro Pasquale. It’s what I look forward to all week. Katherine
Chris
The Wo-
mandalorian, perhaps?
Greg
He never takes the helmet off so honestly I don’t care who is under the armor. Recast it no biggie
Steve
How about just getting another actor to play Din Djarin? Pedro was basically just doing the voice of the original Boba Fett (before they overdubbed it with Temura Morrison.) So they could just have another actor do that. Especially since his face is covered and it is stunt guys in the suit for much of the show anyway.
Walter Lutz
Way to play the words of the title to draw in readers for a false narrative. Do better
Nikko
Grogu is the Mando . Plain and simple
