Moff Gideon's Evil Masterplan Teased By Mandalorian Season 3 Star
The Mandalorian star Giancarlo Esposito recently teased his character Moff Gideon's evil masterplan for season 3. The actor stars in the Star Wars series as the ruthless Imperial officer who has relentlessly pursued the relatively young Jedi apprentice Grogu (also known as Baby Yoda) over The Mandalorian season 1 and 2. Gideon's goal was to deliver the powerful «child» to Dr. Pershing (Omid Abtahi) for experimental blood transfusions in an effort to transfer his Force sensitivity.
The Mandalorian season 2 nearly saw Gideon's mission succeed as he managed to finally get his hands on Grogu. However, Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) was able to free the child with help from his rag-tag crew consisting of Mandalorians Bo-Katan Kryze (Katee Sackhoff) and Koska Reeves (Sasha Banks), assassin Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen), and former Rebel Shock Trooper Cara Dune (Gina Carano). At the end of The Mandalorian season 2, Gideon found himself at the mercy of the New Republic, and according to Esposito, most likely in a prison looking for a way out. Dialogue from The Book of Boba Fett revealed that Gideon was to stand trial for his actions in the New Republic.
