star Wars has the first look at the upcoming The Mandalorian and Grogu Film at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, and the film description includes a Nevarro teaser that proves that he is facing a tragic The Mandalorian Loss. With The Mandalorian and Grogu will continue where Din Djarin and Grogu left off in The Mandalorian At the end of Season 3, it had long been assumed that Nevarro would play a major role in this film. However, the planet’s role in the story unexpectedly changed earlier this year, particularly in relation to Magistrate Greef Karga.

Greef Karga was played by Carl Weathers, who tragically passed away last February, since the beginning of the The MandalorianThis loss shocked not only the star Wars Franchise, because Weathers’ legacy in the industry is legendary. After this tragedy, it was to be expected that star Wars would pay tribute to Weathers and Greef Karga in The Mandalorian and Grogu film, although there were limited details about the upcoming project.

From the first season of The Mandalorian to today, Din Djarin and Grogu have had many adventures that should be known before their first Star Wars film.

Grogu’s final scene with the Anzellans hints at Nevarro’s return

These Anzellans undoubtedly come from Nevarro

The Mandalorian and Grogu The film description at D23 ends with a scene of Grogu and the Anzellans, with whom Grogu “befriended” on Nevarro in The Mandalorian Season 3, crammed into a small room. Although inspired by the Anzellan Babu Frik in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, These Anzellans are closely connected to Nevarrowhere they work as the planet’s droid forge. It’s not entirely clear why Grogu is housed in a closed room with the two Anzellans, but it’s notable that they’re obviously the same people who work on Din and Grogu’s homeworld.

Nevarro cannot appear without addressing the fate of Greef Karga

Greef Karga and Nevarro have always gone hand in hand

Now that the return of the Anzellans has all but confirmed the return of Nevarro itself, it is impossible for The Mandalorian and Grogu to ignore the fate of Greef Karga. Magistrate Karga was the foundation of this whole cityafter going from being the disgraced leader of the planet’s bounty hunter guild to the High Magistrate who led his people to safety from the pirate king Gorian Shard. It’s clear that the people of Nevarro depend on him, meaning it’s nearly impossible to return to that world without dealing with what happened to him.

Even then, Greef Karga’s close friendship with Din Djarin would create a way in which it would have to be discussed anyway, especially since Din and Grogu now live in a cabin on Nevarro that Greef himself gave them. It would be odd if Din did not address the absence of his close friend, especially since he is one of Star Wars’ most honorable characters in franchise history. When his funeral for Kuiil in The Mandalorian Season 1 is a hint, then Din and Nevarro will surely pay tribute to Greef Karga in The Mandalorian and Grogu.

Carl Weathers’ Greef Karga has been a staple of The Mandalorian since the beginning. Here are the actor’s 10 best moments as Din Djarin’s ally.

“Star Wars” will undoubtedly honor Greef Karga and Carl Weathers

That was always the plan

While the appearance of the Anzellans and the return to Nevarro make it clear that Greef Karga’s fate cannot be ignored, this was probably the plan from the beginning anyway. Carl Weathers has always been an important part of The Mandalorian from the beginning and even had the chance to shoot an episode in seasons 2 and 3. He was present at many fan conventions on behalf of the star Wars series, and his presence was just so big at every step of The Mandalorian‘s journey so far. He deserves to be part of this big screen debut.

Even if he cannot physically participate in this project, The Mandalorian and GroguThe cast and crew will no doubt find a way to incorporate him and Greef Karga into this story. The big screen will be the perfect way to show such a tribute to someone with such a strong presence as Weathers.and that is something star Wars no doubt already recognizes it. Any look at Nevarro will likely pay tribute to both Weathers and Greef Karga in some way, and there are a number of ways they can do so.

How The Mandalorian and Grogu could pay tribute to Greef Karga

Star Wars offers numerous ways to honor Carl Weathers

The number of possibilities is unlimited The Mandalorian and Grogu The film has to pay tribute to both Weathers and Greef Karga, but The Mandalorian itself has already determined the best options for this. The first and most likely option is to replace the old statue of IG-11 in the heart of Nevarro with a statue of Greef Karga himself. Now that IG-11 has been rebuilt and the statue partially dismantled, The space for the statue is empty, and a permanent tribute to Greef Karga would be a true honor for all he has done for Nevarro. over the years.

To go one step further, The Mandalorian and Grogu could even feature a funeral scene for Greef Karga on Nevarro. There wouldn’t be a chance in the galaxy that Din and Grogu would miss it, especially as residents of Nevarro, and it would provide a good opportunity for both those characters and the audience to openly mourn and pay tribute to both Greef Karga and Carl Weathers. Since characters like Din Djarin rarely get the chance to mourn onscreen, this would be a particularly moving display of respect.

However star Wars decides on this tribute, There is no doubt that they will make sure that both Carl Weathers and Greef Karga are honored in this film. Weathers and his The Mandalorian role have long been an integral part of this hugely successful story, and it would be impossible to imagine a scenario in which he is not somehow part of its jump to the big screen. Anzellans’ appearance only seems to confirm that The Mandalorian and Grogu will truly return to Nevarro and honor Greef Karga as he should.
